On January 14, GFRIEND’s special album Season of Memories took the top spot on the Hanteo Chart, debuting at No. 1 on the daily album chart as of January 13. The excitement is palpable as the group marks a decade since their debut!

The title track, "우리의 다정한 계절 속에 (Season of Memories)," has been gaining steady traction. Released on January 6, it steadily climbed the charts, even reaching No. 7 on Bugs' real-time chart by 8 AM on January 14.

But that's not all—GFRIEND has been breaking records and earning even more love from their fans. Their appearance on Dingo Music's Killing Voice is now the third most-viewed video of 2024, a huge accomplishment considering the episode was released in December last year!
