LE SSERAFIM's B-side track "Come Over" has earned recognition from Billboard as one of the standout K-pop releases of 2025, cementing the group's reputation for delivering quality music beyond just their title tracks.

Billboard Recognition

On December 18, Billboard unveiled its year-end list "The 25 Best K-Pop Songs of 2025: Staff Picks," ranking "Come Over" at No. 22. The track, featured on LE SSERAFIM's fifth mini-album HOT, caught Billboard's attention for its distinctive energy and collaborative spirit.

Billboard praised the group's signature fearless approach: "LE SSERAFIM are way too hot, crazy and fearless to get hung up on dancing alone. This '60s-styled ditty from British collective Jungle sees the five plucky stars head-bopping and shoulder-shrugging (à la Fosse, no less) to a jittery funk/bossa-nova concoction; it seems to ask who's going to match their freak on the floor."

The publication highlighted how the song captures the quintet-Kim Chaewon, Sakura, Huh Yunjin, Kazuha, and Hong Eunchae-letting loose to the rhythm with free-spirited energy, noting that "the message to simply dance together feels genuinely special."

Rare Crossover Achievement

"Come Over" distinguished itself beyond K-pop circles when American music outlet Consequence included it in "The 200 Best Songs of 2025" on December 4, ranking it at No. 90. The track stood as the only K-pop song to make the comprehensive 200-track list, signaling its rare crossover appeal.

Consequence praised the track's "hypnotic pull," writing that "the repetition in 'Come Over' feels almost trance-like." The dreamy retro sound was crafted in collaboration with British band Jungle, with members Josh Lloyd and Lydia Kitto co-writing and producing the nu jazz and bossa nova-influenced track.

"Spaghetti" Maintains Chart Momentum

While "Come Over" garnered critical acclaim, LE SSERAFIM's latest single "SPAGHETTI (feat. j-hope of BTS)" continues demonstrating commercial staying power. The title track from their first single album has charted on Spotify's "Weekly Top Songs Global" for eight consecutive weeks, ranking at No. 127 for the December 12-18 tracking period.

Since its October 24 release, "SPAGHETTI" has maintained an impressive 56-day consecutive run on Spotify's "Daily Top Songs Global" chart. The collaboration achieved the group's highest-ever Billboard Hot 100 entry, debuting at No. 50.

Global Year-End Schedule

LE SSERAFIM is closing out 2025 with an ambitious international schedule spanning Korea, Japan, and the United States. The group will appear on all three major Korean broadcast networks' year-end music shows-KBS2, SBS, and MBC.

On December 28, they'll participate in Japan's "Countdown Japan 25/26" music festival. Most notably, on December 31, LE SSERAFIM will perform live in Times Square for "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2026," marking them as the only K-pop girl group featured in the iconic American New Year's broadcast. The performance will air live on ABC at 8/7c.

The broadcast will include a special interview with host Ryan Seacrest, offering fans a closer look at the group's milestone year. LE SSERAFIM joins a star-studded lineup including Mariah Carey, Post Malone, and Chappell Roan.

Encore Concert Success

To kick off 2026, LE SSERAFIM will hold their encore concert "LE SSERAFIM TOUR 'EASY CRAZY HOT' ENCORE IN SEOUL" on January 31 and February 1 at Seoul's Jamsil Indoor Stadium. The shows proved the group's formidable ticket power, with both performances selling out completely within just 10 minutes of general ticket sales opening.

The encore concerts will cap off their first world tour, which spanned 29 shows across 19 cities worldwide throughout 2025.


LE SSERAFIM (Kim Chaewon, Sakura, Huh Yunjin, Kazuha, Hong Eunchae) debuted in May 2022 under Source Music. The group has consistently achieved chart success with releases including "ANTIFRAGILE," "UNFORGIVEN," and their latest works "HOT" and "SPAGHETTI."
