LE SSERAFIM Makes History as First K-pop Girl Group on ‘America’s Got Talent’
LE SSERAFIM is set to become the first K-pop girl group ever to perform on NBC's hit competition show America's Got Talent (AGT). According to their agency Source Music, the group has been invited to take the stage during an upcoming live episode scheduled for later this month.
The performance marks a milestone for the group just three years after their debut, as it will be their first official appearance on a major U.S. broadcast stage. Each season, AGT attracts a nationwide audience in the millions, giving it a level of visibility few other variety programs can match.
For many analysts, LE SSERAFIM's invitation signals more than a guest performance—it suggests that K-pop girl groups are no longer confined to niche markets but are becoming part of U.S. prime-time television. The group has already tested the waters with Billboard chart placements and a North American tour, and this broadcast slot may give them a chance to move from a strong touring base to a wider mainstream following.
Online, fans have described the booking as "a turning point," with some eagerly debating which track will best showcase the group's stage identity. Some have also expressed hope that the appearance could pave the way for future invitations to U.S. music award shows and television programs.
LE SSERAFIM previously performed at Coachella and wrapped up their first North American tour last year. With the AGT performance confirmed, many in the industry are watching to see if a single TV slot can translate into lasting visibility. LE SSERAFIM has already shown they can draw crowds on tour and place songs on the charts, but a broadcast on prime-time television is a different test.
Fans have welcomed the announcement with visible excitement, filling online threads with guesses about potential setlists and staging. Some longtime followers also point out that one TV spot will not change everything, though they agree it represents a step forward. For now, the group's AGT stage is being read as both a reward for their steady rise and a chance to test how far a K-pop girl group can reach in the U.S. market.
