LE SSERAFIM: “Starting with ‘AAA 2025’… We’ll Make the Year-End Feel Like a Festival Across Korea, the U.S., and Japan”




LE SSERAFIM (Kim Chaewon, Sakura, Huh Yunjin, Kazuha, Hong Eunchae) proved their status as a leading global girl group once again by sweeping three awards—including the Grand Prize—at the 10th Anniversary Asia Artist Awards 2025.



The 10th Anniversary Asia Artist Awards 2025 (“10th AAA 2025”) was held at 7 p.m. KST on December 6 at Kaohsiung National Stadium. LE SSERAFIM won three major honors: Music Icon of the Year (Grand Prize), Best Artist, and Best Choice (awarded to member Kim Chaewon).



The group released their first single SPAGHETTI (feat. j-hope of BTS) in October and carried out a highly successful promotional cycle. Huh Yunjin reflected, “We promoted with our first single album and the song ‘SPAGHETTI,’ and it was such an enjoyable experience. We took on many new challenges this time, and since FEARNOT (our fandom) enjoyed it so much, it became a meaningful promotion that we will remember for a long time.”

Regarding the collaboration process with BTS’s j-hope, Hong Eunchae said, “He told us he loved the demo from the start and willingly joined the project. He personally handled all the rap-making, appeared in the music video, and kept telling us how much he liked the song. His support gave us so much strength, and we were incredibly grateful.”

SPAGHETTI sparked a wave of challenge videos thanks to its quirky concept and irresistibly addictive performance. When asked if any challenge stood out, Kim Chaewon shared, “This time, we did challenges with actual chefs, and they made a lot of real spaghetti for us. It made the whole activity extremely fun.”



LE SSERAFIM has now won awards at AAA for four consecutive years, firmly solidifying their position at the top of the girl group scene. Kim Chaewon said, “This year’s AAA is especially meaningful because it marks the 10th anniversary. We’re so happy to be part of it, and we’re grateful to be invited every year. We were given the opportunity to showcase a special stage for the 10th anniversary, and we prepared really hard. We hope everyone looks forward to it.” She added, “Congratulations on AAA’s 10th anniversary. We’re thrilled to spend the year-end together with AAA, and we look forward to continuing this relationship.”



They made significant global strides this year. Their first world tour, 2025 LE SSERAFIM TOUR ‘EASY CRAZY HOT’, consisted of 29 shows across 19 cities. In particular, all seven North American stops were sold out, demonstrating remarkable ticket power. They also became the first K-pop girl group to appear on NBC’s America’s Got Talent and featured on the popular talk show The Jennifer Hudson Show, expanding their global recognition. Their hit song SPAGHETTI achieved the group’s highest placement on Billboard’s Hot 100, debuting at No. 50.

In November, the group successfully held their first Tokyo Dome concerts, attracting approximately 80,000 fans over two days.
