Big Hit Music Reportedly Debuting New Boy Group This August
It's been six years since Big Hit Music launched their boy band, TXT (투모로우바이투게더). With global powerhouses like BTS (방탄소년단) under the same label, anticipation has been high for Big Hit's next big act to capture fans' hearts. Earlier this year, the agency revealed their plans for a new boy group set to debut in the third quarter of 2025. Buzz began even before any official confirmation from the members, with photos of the trainees in Los Angeles started making the rounds online as early as May. However, on 17th June (Tuesday), HYBE confirmed in an interview with JTBC that the new boy group is set to debut this August, sending waves of excitement through the fandom. Formerly known as Big Hit Entertainment, HYBE Corporation now acts as the parent company of several major labels, including Big Hit Music, BELIFT LAB, and others. Over the years, HYBE has reshaped the K-pop scene by blending traditional idol management with digital innovation. As a result, its artists have risen to global fame. Beyond music production, HYBE has expanded into talent development, content creation, merchandising, and even education through its academy programs. More recently, attention has shifted to the company's upcoming boy group. In May, fans spotted trainees in Los Angeles, fueling speculation about their debut. Since then, rumors about the trainees have spread quickly, and the anticipation for the group's debut has only grown stronger. Fans have wasted no time expressing their excitement and curiosity across social media, quickly falling in love with the group's visual style and presence. Even with minimal official information available, they've been eagerly analysing every leaked photo and blurry snapshot, clinging to any detail they can find. If the anticipation is any indication, this boy group is already well on its way to becoming K-pop's next major phenomenon.

(Video) Fan Requests KATSEYE Members To Sign Her Sanitary Pad During Event
Getting an autograph from your idol is an experience that not everyone can have. Most netizens would bring books, posters, items of clothing or something personally important to them to events where they have the opportunity to meet their favourite star. But what happens when you forget to bring something to a signing? 'Urban Outfitters' previously launched their 'OU: Haul' event campaign that aimed to support Gen Z with the important moment of their lives back in college. With the event, they hosted a city-wide scavenger hunt. The selected winners are invited to witness a performance of the girl group KATSEYE on 20th May (Tuesday) and 21st May (Wednesday). After the performance, netizens were given the chance to meet the girl group in person. One of the attending Eyekons (KATSEYE's fans) reportedly didn't have anything on hand for the idols to sign, so she offered a sanitary pad she had with her instead. The members were initially surprised by the unusual request but soon found it amusing, sharing a laugh with the fan and her friends. The members readily signed the pad while casually chatting with other Eyekons. Later, when the fan crossed paths with another member on the way out, the incident was shared with the group, and upon recognising the fan, the member added her signature to the pad as well. When the Eyekon shared the interaction on Twitter, many netizens found it hilarious, praising the fan's boldness for requesting something so unconventional at a signing event. Calling the situation 'Peak Girlhood' because of the reactions that everyone had to the pads being used, calling the fan an 'icon', and overall being supportive with how everything played out. While having a fan ask their idol to sign their pad for them is unusual, it's quite common for musical artists to receive requests from their audience to sign things that vary from a simple booklet to body parts. It brings a fun twist to fan signing culture, with netizens wondering what the next unusual item someone would bring to the table.
