“SMTOWN 2025” Line-Up Becomes A Hot Topic And Sparks Intrigue

Fans are hoping certain groups will be there…

SM Entertainment has announced that they will be hosting another family concert in Seoul, celebrating their 30th anniversary in style.

The concert — which will take place on January 11 and 12 at the Gocheok SKY Dome — has already generated excitement online. This year’s concert marks a shift from their usual New Year’s Day event on January 1, adding to the buzz as fans wonder what else will be different.

While the details of the concert remain under wraps, rumors about the lineup have been swirling. Fans are hopeful that SM’s current roster of active idols — including aespa, Red Velvet, RIIZE, NCT, and more — will be there to perform. Many fans are anticipating solo performances as well. However, what’s really igniting discussions is the potential appearance of older groups.

The presence of iconic groups like Girls’ Generation is still uncertain, but recent comments from Hyoyeon have sparked hope.

We’re starting to prepare gradually from now. It looks like all SM artists will participate. It’s meaningful as it’s the 30th anniversary.
