LE SSERAFIM are ringing in the new year on one of the world’s biggest stages.
The fearless K-pop quintet — KIM CHAEWON, SAKURA, HUH YUNJIN, KAZUHA, and HONG EUNCHAE — are set to deliver a live performance in Times Square on 31 December for Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest 2026. The broadcast will air live across the U.S. on ABC at 8/7C.
Joining a star-studded lineup that includes Mariah Carey, Post Malone, and Chappell Roan, LE SSERAFIM are the only K-pop girl group performing live in Times Square this year. The event will also feature a special interview with host Ryan Seacrest, where the group will reflect on their milestone year.
The appearance caps off a whirlwind year for LE SSERAFIM. Their latest project, 1st Single Album SPAGHETTI, featuring lead track ‘SPAGHETTI (feat. j-hope of BTS)’, debuted at No. 50 on the Billboard Hot 100 — their highest chart entry to date. The album also hit No. 6 on the Billboard Global 200 and charted on the U.K.’s Official Singles Chart and Spotify’s Weekly Top Songs Global.
Just last month, the group wrapped their EASY CRAZY HOT world tour with back-to-back shows at Tokyo Dome, part of a 29-show run across 19 cities, including seven sold-out U.S. stops. They’ll close out their massive tour with encore concerts in Seoul on 31 January and 2 February.
Before the year ends, LE SSERAFIM are also scheduled to perform at COUNTDOWN JAPAN 25/26, the Asia Artist Awards in Taiwan, and Korea’s SBS Gayo Daejeon — making them the only K-pop girl group this year to close out the season with major stages across the U.S., Japan, and Korea.
