The agency has released the first track off the upcoming project, a holiday song titled ‘Beautiful Christmas’ by girl groups aespa and Red Velvet. The song was accompanied by a music video featuring all nine members across both acts.
SM Entertainment’s last company-wide project was ‘SMTOWN 2022 : SMCU EXPRESS’. That project involved a free online concert titled ‘SMTOWN LIVE 2022 : SMCU EXPRESS @KWANGYA’, which introduced the SM Culture Universe (SMCU) to fans through performances hosted at a concert stage based on the fictional metaverse, Kwangya.
‘SMTOWN LIVE 2022 : SMCU EXPRESS @KWANGYA’ saw performances from Kangta, BoA, and groups TVXQ, Super Junior, Red Velvet, NCT and aespa. Girls’ Generation’s Taeyeon and Hyoyeon, SHINee’s Onew, Key and Minho, and EXO’s Kai also performed at the concert. The concert also marked the debut of GOT The Beat, the first sub-unit from the female supergroup Girls On Top, with a live performance of ‘Step Back’.
The concert, which took place on January this year, eventually set the record for the highest number of streams garnered by a Korean online concert, recording over 51million streams from 161 regions.
