We kicked off the show with the ‘Star of Asia’, featuring Thai Girl group Empress. There were new tracks from Stray Kids, JHope, Zerobaseone and Big Ocean who come to London on 24th April playing at Underworld. We had new tracks from Fantasy Boys, Mark of NCT Dream, U & 127 featuring Haechan and STAYC. We celebrated birthdays for members of groups from Ateez and Trendz. We had Hyo and Way V who will be in town in July for SM Town Live. We closed the show with newbie label mates Hearts2Hearts who debuted this year.

In the latest news surrounding girlgroup Newjeans, a courted ruled that they are still legally represented by their label Ador who they attempting to part ways with. In a bold move Newjeans announced that they would halt all activity until the next court hearing. ‘Under Fifteen’ a new reality show with contestants as young as 9 came under fire for child exploitation, so has been cancelled even before broadcast.
