View on Wikipedia
Everglow (Korean: 에버글로우; RR: Ebeogeullou, stylized in all caps) is a South Korean girl group under Chxxta Company. The quartet consists of members E:U, Sihyeon, Onda, and Aisha. Cited as the "ultimate performance boss" by Korean media, they are known for their EDM-trap-inspired synth-pop sound and adopting the "girl crush" concept in K-pop. Originally a six-piece, they regrouped after departing from their former label Yuehua Entertainment, with former members Mia and Yiren absent.
Key Information
Everglow debuted on March 18, 2019 with the single album Arrival of Everglow and its single "Bon Bon Chocolat", quickly earning the nickname of "monster rookies" from domestic media for their performance potential. Their subsequent singles, "Adios" (2019) and "Dun Dun" (2020), peaked at numbers 2 and 3 respectively on the U.S. World Digital Song Sales chart, further establishing the group's global presence. Their single "La Di Da" (2020), was named the best K-pop song of 2020 by Billboard.

Everglow was formed by Yuehua Entertainment, a Beijing-based entertainment company founded in June 2009 by CEO Du Hua, which specializes in artist management, training, and production across China and South Korea.[11] The company established its Korean branch in 2014 in Seoul's Gangnam-gu district to expand into the K-pop industry, initially debuting the multinational boy group UNIQ in 2014 before focusing on girl groups.[12] Yuehua's entry into K-pop involved building a trainee system modeled after established Korean agencies, recruiting young talents through global auditions and scouts to create competitive idol groups.[13] The formation of Everglow marked Yuehua's first foray into debuting a full K-pop girl group, announced in February 2019 as a six-member lineup assembled from the agency's trainee pool to embody a "girl crush" concept with powerful performances and charismatic visuals.[4] The members—E:U, Sihyeon, Mia, Onda, Aisha, and Yiren—were selected based on their vocal, dance, and performance skills honed during training periods ranging from two to eleven years, with the group emphasizing synchronized choreography and multilingual appeal given its mix of Korean and Chinese members.[14] Pre-debut teasers began rolling out in early March 2019, introducing each member individually to build anticipation for their launch as Yuehua's flagship female act.[2] Several members' paths to the group were shaped by high-profile survival programs, providing Yuehua with visibility in the competitive K-pop landscape. Sihyeon and Yiren represented the agency on Mnet's Produce 48 in 2018, where they showcased dance and performance abilities alongside other trainees like Choi Ye-na, though only Sihyeon and Yiren were ultimately chosen for Everglow despite not ranking in the final lineup.[15] Aisha brought extensive experience, having trained for nine years at JYP Entertainment starting in 2008 before transferring to Yuehua in 2017, while E:U debuted publicly as a trainee in Yuehua's 2017 vlog series documenting female trainees' daily lives.[16] Mia and Onda, meanwhile, developed within Yuehua's internal system without major survival show exposure, focusing on vocal and rap training to round out the group's dynamics. This strategic assembly allowed Everglow to debut on March 18, 2019, with the single album Arrival of Everglow and title track "Bon Bon Chocolat," positioning them as a fresh contender in the girl group market.[3]Pre-debut activities
Prior to their debut, the members of Everglow underwent varying periods of training, primarily under Yuehua Entertainment, with some having prior experiences at other agencies or in survival programs. The group was assembled by Yuehua, a Chinese entertainment company expanding into K-pop, and members were gradually revealed through teaser videos titled "Crank In Film" starting in February 2019, building anticipation for their launch.[17] E:U (Park Jiwon), the group's former leader, trained at Yuehua for approximately three years after joining in 2016; prior to that, she was active as a competitive cheerleader, participating in events like the Happy Sport For Cheerleading Championship in 2014. Sihyeon (Kim Sihyeon) joined Yuehua after appearing as an independent trainee on Mnet's Produce 101 in 2016, where she ranked 40th and was eliminated in episode 8; she trained there for about two years and ten months before also competing on Produce 48 in 2018, ranking 27th as a Yuehua trainee. Onda (Jo Serim) had the shortest training period at Yuehua, around one year and seven months, following her elimination in episode 4 of Mnet's Idol School in 2017, where she competed as an individual and ranked 40th overall.[18][19][20] Aisha (Heo Yoorim) brought the longest training history, totaling 11 years: nine years as a trainee at JYP Entertainment starting in 2008, followed by two years at Yuehua after transferring in 2017; during her JYP tenure, she attended Hanlim Multi Art School and took dance lessons at Night Dance Academy. Yiren (Wang Yiren), the group's Chinese member, joined Yuehua directly from China in 2016 and trained for about two years and seven months; she gained early visibility by competing on Produce 48 in 2018, where she ranked 28th and was eliminated in the eleventh episode. Mia (Han Mia), revealed as the second member in the Crank In Film series, trained at Yuehua for roughly three years and seven months with limited public pre-debut exposure, maintaining a relatively low profile until the group's formation. These individual paths contributed to Everglow's diverse skill set, emphasizing strong visuals, dance, and performance abilities honed through rigorous preparation.[16][21]Career
2019: Debut with Arrival of Everglow
Everglow, a six-member South Korean girl group under Yuehua Entertainment, officially debuted on March 18, 2019, with their first single album Arrival of Everglow. The project was announced on February 17, 2019, positioning the group as a powerhouse act blending fierce visuals, vocal strength, and dynamic performances. The album includes three tracks: the lead single "Bon Bon Chocolat," the atmospheric "Moon," and the upbeat "D+1," with "Bon Bon Chocolat" serving as an empowering anthem that highlights the members' synchronized dance routines and confident energy.[22][23] The release was accompanied by a high-concept music video for "Bon Bon Chocolat," directed to emphasize themes of allure and self-assurance, which quickly garnered attention for its polished production and the group's charismatic stage presence. Promotions began immediately, spanning five weeks from March 18 to April 21, 2019, with performances on major music programs such as Music Bank, Show! Music Core, and Inkigayo. These stages showcased Everglow's ability to deliver intense choreography while maintaining vocal stability, helping to establish their reputation as a performance-driven group early in their career.[24][25] Commercially, Arrival of Everglow achieved immediate success, topping the worldwide iTunes K-pop albums chart upon release and peaking at No. 6 on South Korea's Gaon Album Chart. The title track "Bon Bon Chocolat" debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard World Digital Song Sales chart, marking one of the strongest starts for a new K-pop girl group that year and signaling international appeal. The album's sales exceeded 27,000 physical copies in its first month on the Gaon chart, reflecting solid domestic support.[3][26][27] Critically, the debut was praised for its fresh take on girl group dynamics, with "Bon Bon Chocolat" described as an infectious and empowering track that opened new avenues for bold, boyband-inspired concepts in K-pop. Everglow's efforts earned them a nomination for Best New Female Artist at the 2019 Mnet Asian Music Awards, underscoring the project's impact in introducing the group as a rising force in the industry.[28][29][30]2020: Reminiscence, -77.82X-78.29, and first tour
On February 3, 2020, Everglow released their first extended play, Reminiscence, marking their first major release since debuting the previous year.[31] The EP consists of four tracks, led by the title track "Dun Dun," an energetic dance-pop song characterized by its powerful synth beats and the group's synchronized choreography emphasizing sharp formations and intense expressions.[32] "Dun Dun" debuted at number 12 on the Gaon Digital Chart and number 3 on the Billboard World Digital Song Sales chart, while the EP entered the Billboard World Albums chart at number 14, signifying the group's growing international recognition.[33] In tandem with the EP's promotion, Everglow announced their first concert tour, titled Everlasting Tour in USA, set to commence on March 6, 2020, in Dallas, Texas.[34] The U.S. leg included stops in Atlanta, Chicago, and Jersey City, where the group performed a setlist featuring hits like "Bon Bon Chocolat" and "Adios" alongside tracks from Reminiscence, showcasing their high-energy stage presence and fan interactions.[35] The tour concluded its completed shows in early March, with the final planned Los Angeles date canceled due to the emerging COVID-19 pandemic, though the performances received praise for highlighting the group's vocal harmonies and dynamic visuals.[14] Later that year, on September 21, 2020, Everglow returned with their second mini album, -77.82X-78.29, released in two versions (-77.82X and -78.29) and featuring four tracks, including the lead single "La Di Da."[36] The title track blends retro synth-pop with bold, anthemic choruses and futuristic production, accompanied by a music video that amassed over 10 million views within its first day of release, underscoring the group's expanding global appeal.[36] "La Di Da" was later named the top K-pop song of 2020 by Billboard, lauded for its infectious energy and the members' commanding performance style. The album further solidified Everglow's reputation for genre-blending electropop, with themes of empowerment and resilience woven into its lyrics.[14]2021: Last Melody and Return of the Girl
In May 2021, Everglow released their third single album, Last Melody, on May 25 through Yuehua Entertainment. The album features three tracks: the lead single "FIRST," a high-energy hip-hop infused song emphasizing bold confidence and performance intensity; "DON'T ASK DON'T TELL," a groovy R&B track; and "PLEASE PLEASE," a melancholic closer. The release marked the group's first comeback in over seven months following their 2020 EP -77.82X-78.29, showcasing their signature powerful choreography and vocal harmonies. Last Melody achieved commercial success, debuting at number four on South Korea's Gaon Album Chart for the week of May 23–29, 2021, and selling over 52,000 copies in its first month. The title track "FIRST" earned the group their second music show win on SBS MTV's The Show on June 1, 2021, highlighting their growing stage presence. Promotions included performances on major programs like M Countdown and Music Bank, where the members executed intricate formations and synchronized dances that underscored the album's theme of unyielding determination. Additionally, "FIRST" secured the Best Music Video award at the 2021 Asia Artist Awards on December 2, recognizing its dynamic visuals and impactful storytelling.[37] Following a period of anticipation, Everglow returned in December 2021 with their third mini-album, Return of the Girl, released on December 1. The EP contains five tracks, led by the title track "Pirate," an empowering anthem blending EDM beats, rap verses, and soaring choruses to evoke themes of rebellion and self-assertion. Other songs include "Back Together," an uplifting opener; "Don't Speak," addressing unspoken emotions; "Nighty Night," a dreamy interlude; and "Company," a reflective closer. The album's concept positions the group as futuristic warriors reclaiming their narrative, with teaser images depicting them in cyberpunk-inspired attire.[38][39] Return of the Girl debuted at number ten on the Gaon Album Chart for the week of November 28–December 4, 2021, selling approximately 46,000 copies in its initial period. The group promoted "Pirate" through music shows such as Inkigayo and Show Champion, emphasizing synchronized group dynamics and charismatic delivery. In interviews, members expressed ambitions to inspire global audiences with their energy, with Sihyeon stating, "We want to take over and lead the world," and Aisha noting the track's role in building personal confidence. The release solidified Everglow's reputation for bold, girl-power-driven music, though it did not secure music show wins.[40]2022–2023: All My Girls, Zombie, and member departure
In early 2022, Everglow member Yiren took an extended hiatus from group activities to return to China for family time and to address her academic commitments, a decision influenced by the ongoing challenges of COVID-19 restrictions that had limited her visits home since debut.[41] The group continued promotions without her, initially planning for a temporary absence from mid-January to late February, though it ultimately lasted nearly 10 months.[42] During this period, Everglow participated in select events and awards shows, such as the 2022 Hanteo Music Awards in February, where they received the Post Generation Award.[43] Yiren rejoined the group in November 2022, coinciding with Everglow's release of the single "Ghost Light," a collaboration with German electronic producer TheFatRat.[44] The track, released on November 18, blended electropop and trap elements, with a Korean version following shortly after; Yiren did not participate in its recording due to her ongoing hiatus at the time.[45] A nightcore remix was issued on November 25, extending the song's reach in electronic music circles.[46] This release marked the group's first musical output since 2021's "Return of the Girl," though it was not a full-group mini-album comeback. Following a nearly two-year gap in major comebacks, Yuehua Entertainment announced on July 27, 2023, that Everglow would return with their fourth single album, All My Girls, set for release on August 18. The album featured three tracks, led by the title song "Slay," an empowering anthem with bold lyrics encouraging self-assertion and breaking free from societal expectations of "good girls."[47] Co-written and produced by international collaborators including British songwriter Lauren Aquilina, "Slay" showcased Everglow's signature fierce choreography and high-energy performance style during music show promotions. The other tracks, "Oh Ma Ma God" and "Make Me Feel," explored themes of confidence and emotional liberation, receiving positive feedback for their cohesive, girl-crush vibe. A comeback showcase was held on the release day, highlighting the group's renewed momentum after their extended break. To capitalize on the album's success, Everglow announced their second U.S. tour, titled 2023 Everglow US Tour 'All My Girls', on August 24, 2023.[48] The 10-date trek began on November 1 in New Haven, Connecticut, and concluded on November 22 in Los Angeles, California, featuring performances of hits like "Slay," "Dun Dun," and "La Di Da" across major cities including New York, Atlanta, and San Francisco.[49] The tour extended into a full world tour from November 2023 to May 2024, spanning 19 shows and marking Everglow's growing international presence. Although no permanent member departures occurred during this period, Yiren's prolonged absence highlighted ongoing challenges in group scheduling amid global travel restrictions and personal priorities.2024–2025: Further departures, agency change, and international touring
In early 2024, Everglow held their first Japanese concert tour titled All My Girls from April 29 to May 1 at Zepp venues in Osaka and Tokyo, marking their return to live performances in the country following previous activities.[50] Everglow released their fifth single album Zombie on June 10, 2024, with the title track delivering a dark, intense concept through heavy bass and apocalyptic visuals, further evolving their edgy sound.[51] Later that year, the group announced their third U.S. tour, Pulse & Heart, organized by MyMusicTaste, which commenced on September 18, 2024, in Los Angeles and included stops across the United States and Latin America, such as Chicago on September 27, New York on September 29, Dallas on October 4, and São Paulo, Brazil, on October 13, concluding a series of high-energy performances that showcased their evolving stage presence.[52][53][54] The group faced significant changes in 2025 with the departure of two members. On August 2, reports emerged that Mia had chosen to leave Everglow for personal reasons, as confirmed through her fan communication platform Fanicon, while Yiren remained bound by her ongoing contract with Yuehua Entertainment's China branch and did not renew with the group.[55][56] These exits reduced Everglow to a quartet consisting of E:U, Sihyeon, Onda, and Aisha, signaling the end of the original six-member lineup amid broader contract negotiations.[57] Compounding these shifts, all members' exclusive contracts with Yuehua Entertainment expired in June 2025 without renewal, leading to the group's full departure from the agency after six years.[22] On September 10, 2025, the remaining four members signed an exclusive contract with CHXXTA Company (stylized as Chxxta Company), a newly established entertainment firm, allowing Everglow to continue under the same name with promises of new music and performances while retaining their core "girl crush" identity.[1][58] Post-agency transition, Everglow resumed international activities, including a Japan concert tour Pulse & Heart on March 22, 2025, at Zepp Haneda in Tokyo, which highlighted their adaptability as a quartet.[59] In August 2025, they conducted a fanmeeting titled EVER FOREVER in partnership with Japanese promoter 22LABEL, followed by their inaugural Asia fanmeeting tour under CHXXTA Company, featuring stops in Taipei (November 2025), Seoul, and Hong Kong, where the group engaged fans through interactive sessions and performances to rebuild momentum.[56][60] In January 2026, Everglow announced their RE:CODE world tour ahead of their first comeback album as a four-member group under the new agency, with dates to be revealed soon.[61]Members

As of November 2025, she remains affiliated with Yuehua for possible solo endeavors in the Chinese market.[65][66]
Timeline

Musical style and themes
Everglow's music is primarily characterized by a fusion of EDM, trap, and synth-pop elements, creating high-energy tracks with pulsating beats and electronic production that emphasize powerful vocal deliveries and intricate rap sections. Their debut single "Bon Bon Chocolat" (2019) exemplifies this style through its trap-infused drops and synth-driven hooks, establishing a sound that blends aggressive rhythms with catchy melodies. Subsequent releases like "Adios" (2019) and "Dun Dun" (2020) maintain this foundation, incorporating heavy basslines and dynamic builds that highlight the group's synchronized performance capabilities.[69][70] The group fully embraces the "girl crush" concept, portraying confident, mature personas that reject traditional femininity in favor of bold, unapologetic attitudes. This is evident in their visual and sonic aesthetics, where tracks like "La Di Da" (2020) draw on retro synthwave influences to evoke a futuristic, empowered vibe, complete with minimalistic verses that explode into anthemic choruses. Later works, such as "Slay" (2023), push this further with dissonant synths and trap beats, reinforcing a fierce, independent image that sets Everglow apart in the K-pop landscape.[71][72] Lyrically, Everglow's themes center on self-love, empowerment, and emotional resilience, often exploring the complexities of relationships through a lens of personal strength and self-acceptance. Songs like "First" (2021) delve into vulnerability and healing, conveying messages of moving forward despite heartbreak, while "Slay" (2023) celebrates female solidarity and confidence. Their discography also touches on love and destiny, as in "Untouchable" (2020), but consistently frames these narratives around feminist ideals of autonomy and inner glow. This thematic consistency aligns with their girl crush identity, promoting messages of unyielding self-worth.[71][73][74][75]Stage presence and choreography
Everglow has garnered acclaim for their commanding stage presence and meticulously crafted choreography, which often features sharp synchronization, powerful formations, and high-energy movements that amplify their fierce, girl-crush aesthetic. Collaborating with prominent choreographers like Lia Kim of 1MILLION Dance Studio for their debut single "Bon Bon Chocolat" in 2019, the group showcased intricate footwork and expressive isolations tailored to highlight individual member strengths, setting a tone of polished intensity from the outset.[76] The group's 2020 hit "Dun Dun" exemplifies their ability to dominate the stage, with choreography emphasizing explosive drops, militaristic lines, and unwavering eye contact that convey unmatched presence during live performances.[77] This track's routine, known for its rigorous demands, underscores Everglow's technical prowess and ability to maintain charisma under pressure, contributing to its enduring popularity in music show stages.[78] Subsequent releases further refined their performance style. In "La Di Da," the choreography incorporates dynamic, cinematic flair inspired by neo-noir visuals and feline agility, blending fluid transitions with aggressive accents to match the song's defiant energy.[79] Similarly, "First" opens with a spine-chilling introductory sequence—marked by tense builds and sudden releases—that highlights Onda's fierce on-stage charisma, establishing an immediate sense of intimidation and allure.[79] By 2023, Everglow's evolution was evident in "Slay," where choreographer Jo Na-in of the dance crew Turns designed routines with bold, warrior-like poses and rapid pivots, reinforcing the group's reputation for outstanding presence that captivates international audiences during tours and showcases.[80][81] Their consistent emphasis on theatrical execution and emotional delivery has solidified Everglow as a benchmark for fourth-generation K-pop performance artistry.Discography
