Cosmosy takes big bite of New York

Korea Herald02-06-2025
Rookie girl group Cosmosy left an impression on New York with a string of promotional activities, according to Sony Music Korea on Monday.
In a surprise rendezvous with American weather forecaster and social media presence Nick Kosir, the four bandmates of the girl group danced together to the tune of their debut single, 'Lucky=One.'
They took to Times Square for a flash mob along with a local dance crew, even making an appearance on one of the billboards at the city landmark.
The group also hosted an exclusive showcase in partnership with Spotify and performed a sample of the unreleased 'Baby Don't Cry=Breaking the Love.'
Cosmos, an all-Japanese girl group, debuted as a team of four in April with the single 'Lucky=One.' The music video for the tropical dance tune had attracted over 10 million views on YouTube as of May, as did that for predebut single 'Zigy=Zigy' in January.

Bada apologizes for misleading product promotion on YouTube

Bada, a member of the first-generation K-pop girl group S.E.S, apologized on Tuesday for promoting a skincare product on her YouTube channel without disclosing that it was a paid advertisement, and without verifying the claims made about it. 'I sincerely apologize for the disappointment caused by a product featured on my YouTube channel,' Bada wrote in a handwritten statement posted on Instagram. 'I'm ashamed that I didn't take the time to thoroughly review the details before taking part in the content.' The apology comes amid growing criticism from viewers, especially after another YouTube channel on Monday revealed that the product was falsely marketed as being popular in Australia. In the now-deleted video, Bada claimed she first discovered the product during a trip to Australia. 'I first saw this (skincare brand) when I went to Australia a while back. Among the different brands, Miracle Sydney seemed to be the most well-known there,' she said in the video. Bada on Tuesday admitted that the comments were scripted by the production team and that she had not confirmed their accuracy. Local reports later confirmed that the skincare item is actually manufactured by a company based in Gyeonggi Province. Her agency also released a statement on Tuesday, pledging to strengthen internal review procedures to prevent similar incidents in the future.

I-dle to drop album, tour in Japan

Girl group I-dle is poised to release a namesake EP in Japan on Oct. 3, Cube Entertainment announced Monday. The upcoming set will be the band's first record released in the country in five years and the first since it changed its name from (G)I-dle. The mini album will consist of five tracks: three new songs and Japanese-language versions of 'Queencard' and 'Fate.' The former fronted its sixth EP 'I Feel' from 2023 and the latter is a B-side track from its second LP '2' from last year. Soyeon wrote the main track 'Dosiyoukana,' which translates as 'What should I do.' On the heels of the record release, the five bandmates will perform in Saitama prefecture, just north of Tokyo, on Oct. 4-5 before heading to Kobe. Meanwhile, I-dle will also join the lineup of Summer Sonic 2025 on Aug. 16 in Tokyo and Aug. 17 in Osaka.

YG Entertainment announced Monday that Blackpink's video for 'Pink Venom" has reached 1 billion views on YouTube, becoming the group's ninth music video to do so. The video reached the milestone in about three years and set a new record for female artists, generating over 90 million plays within 24 hours of its release. 'Pink Venom' was a pre-release track from the group's second album, 'Born Pink.' It topped the iTunes Top Songs chart in 81 regions, and claimed the No. 22 spot on both Billboard's Hot 100 and the UK's Official Singles Top 100. The hip-hop tune racked up 100 million Spotify streams in 17 days, as did its most recent single, 'Jump,' last week. Blackpink performed in Paris over the weekend for 'Deadline,' and will visit Milan and Barcelona, Spain, before wrapping up the tour's European leg in London.
