Kpop Girl Groups Jan/Feb 2020

          Ok, so this will be the first new blog for 2020. Since there's only one girl group comeback for Jan, I will combine Jan and Feb. There are 7 girl groups debut or comeback at Feb and one from Jan in total.

Early this year, there is rumor that IZone will disband due to contract. However on January 6, 2020, the members' agencies and CJ ENM reached an agreement to resume the group's activities.The group subsequently released their first studio album Bloom*Iz on February 17. On February 23, Bloom*Iz broke the current record of girl group's first week sales on Hanteo with 356,313 copies sold on its first 7 days; being also the first girl group in the history of Hanteo charts to surpass the 300,000 copies sold mark. Iz*One's first win for the title song "Fiesta" was on "The Show" on February 25

On February 3, GFriend released their eighth EP:Labyrinth, with the lead single "Crossroads".This marked the group's first Korean comeback after the acquisition of Source Music by Big Hit Entertainment in 2019. The music video for this song is referring to the group's previous music videos. No choreography is included which highlights the storyline of the single. "Crossroads" is a sentimental song that shares similarities with their previous single "Time for the Moon Night".







Everglow - Dun Dun
