RIIZE is my favorite K-Pop group. They debuted in September 2023 under SM Entertainment, one of the biggest K-pop labels. Their first single was Get a Guitar, and it helped them get noticed by fans around the world fast.
The name RIIZE comes from two words: rise and realize, meaning they want to grow together and make their dreams real.
Today, the group has six members: Shotaro, Eunseok, Sungchan, Wonbin, Sohee, and Anton (my favorite member). At first, they had seven members, but Seunghan left the group in late 2024.
RIIZE is known for its music style called Emotional Pop, which mixes catchy sounds with feelings fans can relate to. They’ve released songs and albums like Odyssey, and they’ve been touring in Asia and beyond.
The group is already breaking records, becoming one of the fastest K-pop groups to sell out big shows and getting huge numbers of views online. Fans especially love how the members laugh together, talk about their journeys, and share both fun and serious sides of their lives.
