Hearts2Hearts to Light Up Music Shows With "ICONIC HEART"

K-pop girl group Hearts2Hearts is bringing the Korean version of its Japanese debut single to music shows in South Korea. The group will perform "ICONIC HEART (Korean Ver.)" on Mnet's "M Countdown" on October 15, KBS2's "Music Bank" on October 16, and MBC's "Show! Music Core" on October 17. The Korean-language version was released on October 5.

"ICONIC HEART (Korean Ver.)" is a Jersey club-based dance track about the rush of stepping into a wider world together. The choreography features hand gestures forming different heart shapes, rhythmic footwork and shifting formations. The opening shoulder-shaking move has also attracted attention.

On October 19 at midnight KST, SM Entertainment will release an animated music video featuring the group's plush character "Hakkyuha" through the SMTOWN YouTube channel and other platforms. A pop-up store will run from October 19 to 25 at KWANGYA SEOUL, located on the first basement floor of SM Entertainment's headquarters in Seoul's Seongsu neighborhood. The store will feature "Hakkyuha" dressed in the song's "magical girl" concept, along with merchandise inspired by the album.

Hearts2Hearts is also set to release a new single, "Next Chapter," on October 16 at 6 p.m. KST. The track was created to mark the 10th anniversary of "Arena of Valor," a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game co-developed by Tencent Games and Garena.
