    K-pop supergroup RIIZE pull out all the stops to launch SM Entertainment’s 30th anniversary year in style with the release of their latest single ‘Hug’ – a nostalgic remake of the 2004 debut single by the groups legendary label mates, TVXQ!. 

    Serving as the follow up to 2024’s ‘Combo’ – an alternative pop rock anthem produced by South Korean songwriter and record producer Kenzie, Ronny Svendsen and Pizzapunk – the bands fresh interpretation of ‘Hug’ comes correct with pristine harmonies and lashings of heartfelt nostalgia, as the super talented sextet put a fresh twist on the much loved Y2K classic.

    Watch the official music video for ‘Hug’ below:


    ‘Hug’ will appear on SM Entertainment’s forthcoming 30th anniversary album, set for release this year. The unique project features remakes of the label’s “decades-spanning signature hits, reinterpreted by senior and junior artists in their distinctive style”.

    As part of the milestone anniversary celebrations, SM is bringing the SMTOWN LIVE 2025 Tour to fans worldwide. Scheduled to kick off in Seoul this weekend, the hugely anticipated tour makes its way to London this spring.

    Ticketing information and the full line-up for SMTOWN LIVE 2025 in London is set to be announced in the coming weeks.
