The “stage” video of the group’s January 1 performance was uploaded to the group’s official YouTube channel later on the same day. “Take your hands off of mine / Step back, step back / It won’t be enough even if you’re born again / Step back, step back,” they declare on the chorus.
Girls On Top is the sixth project group formed by SM Entertainment, an endeavour that began with SM The Ballad in 2010. That group featured members of TVXQ, Girls’ Generation and EXO.
More recently, it had debuted the boyband SuperM, which was comprised of members from SHINee, EXO, NCT 127 and WayV in 2019. The supergroup had been dubbed “the Avengers of K-pop” upon its launch.
In other SM Entertainment news, TVXQ’s Changmin will be releasing new solo music later this month. The as-yet-unnamed release will mark the idol’s first domestic comeback as a soloist in almost two years, after he made his solo debut with his mini-album ‘Chocolate’ in 2020.
