SM Entertainment successfully concluded the “2025 SMile Music Festival” at Baekam Art Hall on November 22 at 5 PM.



Launched in 2015 and celebrating its 11th anniversary this year, the SMile Music Festival is SM Entertainment’s flagship social contribution project for middle and high school students nationwide, as well as teenagers aged 14 to 19 who aspire to grow their dreams through music.

To date, a total of 108 teams and 803 participants have taken part in the program, developing their musical capabilities and fostering psychological and emotional growth.

This year’s 10 final teams, selected earlier, received extensive support over the past four months following the orientation held in August — including professional online and offline training, mentoring from SM artists, a mid-term workshop, university student video supporter teams exclusively assigned to each participant team, and specialized stylists.
