The group debuted with the album "The Chase" and released their own music with the dreamy and mysterious title track "The Chase" and the warm and lyrical record track "Butterflies."
In addition, "Hearts2Hearts" has established itself on major music charts in Korea, steadily climbing the charts, and entertainment content has also been released and has been on YouTube.
The video was ranked in the top trending videos on Tube, demonstrating the high interest of fans around the world. Hearts2Hearts is on its way to becoming the "best rookie of 2025."
On March 26th, the members shared their thoughts on the launch of their first real variety show "Chat Hearts 2 Hearts" and the release of their new song through a Q&A session.
Q. How do you feel after completing your three-week debut activities? Jiwoo: Time passed so quickly, it feels like I was dreaming. I saw the beginning of "Hearts2Hearts"
We'd like to thank everyone who supported us and hope you'll look forward to our next album! Yuha: We're really happy to have received so much love from our debut album.
I will work harder to repay the love and support you have shown me. Please look forward to my next album. Ju Eun:
We made unforgettable memories during these three weeks. We will continue to be even cooler as "Hearts2Hearts".
I want to show you lots of great music and performances. Ian: I had a really happy and fun time these past three weeks. I'll never forget it. I hope to continue supporting "Hearts2Hearts" in the future.
Please give "rts" lots of love! Q. What was the most memorable moment during your debut activities? Carmen: Our first music show!
When we were doing our first pre-recording for a music show, the fans were memorizing the cheering methods that were revealed the day before.
I was very moved when I heard that they would do that. Stella: It was my first time on a music show. It was also my first time going to a broadcasting station (laughs).
I was so happy to be able to stand on that stage, as I had been nurturing my dreams since I was young. Eina: I was able to perform my debut stage and my first MC performance on MBC's "Show! The Center of K-POP."
I remember the day we were together. I was nervous, but the members, fans, and staff all gave me a lot of support, and we were able to finish it safely.
Yeon: The day we appeared on a radio show for the first time is the most memorable. It was so strange that we were actually appearing on a radio show that we always watched and listened to, and it was so exciting to see that we were actually on a live broadcast.
I was very nervous because the show was being hosted, but it was very fun and the senior DJs were very warm and welcoming, so I was able to relax. I'd like to perform again next time! Q.
Your performances on music shows have been well-received. Which one is your favorite? Carmen: 2week's Mnet "M
It's the stage for "COUNTDOWN"! It fits really well with the concept of "The Chase", so I was very happy while performing.
Yuha: I liked the stage of 1week's KBS "MUSIC BANK" the most. It reflected the props and costumes we used for the jacket photo shoot of our debut album.
It's a wonderful stage! I was wondering how it would come to fruition, but thank you for creating such a wonderful stage. Juun: 3week's "MUSIC
BANK! The styling of the members was very beautiful. Yeon: I really liked the styling of the 2nd week's "Show! The Heart of K-POP".
I also remember the SBS 1week's "Inkigayo" where you wore the costumes from the music video that many fans liked. Q.
Among all the different reactions to your debut song and performance, which one has impressed you the most?
Jiwoo: The Chase is like "Pyongyang cold noodles sprinkled with star powder"! (laughs) When I first heard it, it seemed gloomy, but the more I listened to it, the more I felt "The Chase" was like "Pyongyang cold noodles sprinkled with star powder"!
I thought you meant that you were obsessed with the mysterious charm of "The Chase," but I thought it was a very fitting expression.
"Chase" is a new song, so it may have felt a little strange at first, but the more we promote, the more people are starting to like it.
I'm grateful that everyone liked "The Chase." Eina: I was happy that the reaction to the dance we practiced so much was good.
We will also be showing you lots of great performances! Ian: One of the killing parts in "The Chase" is the "magnesium deficiency part" (Ian's part was a scene where I had to hold my eyes for several times).
I think it was worth all the hard work we put into trying to present a better performance, as I was able to get a lot of love for the "killing parts" (the movements that make you blink).
Please look forward to it! Q. You will be meeting your fans on your first reality show starting March 26th. What can we look forward to?
Carmen: Please look forward to the chemistry between the members. You will be able to see a lot of our everyday selves.
I think our fans will find it entertaining! Yuha: You can see our natural selves. The relaxed side of us that comes out when we're just close friends is the point of this reality show.
Eina: I think what happens when we're alone is a lot more interesting than you'd expect! Ian:
I hope you can look forward to the chemistry that the eight members will create.
Q. Following your debut, you are preparing to release a new song. What would you like to reveal about your comeback? Jiwoo: "The
If "Chase" is like a prologue to "Hearts2Hearts," then I think the next song will be one that shows a more authentic side of us.
Stella: "The Chase" had a dreamy and mysterious atmosphere, but I think the next song is one that captures our lively charm.
Jueun: I plan to show a new side of myself that is different from "The Chase". Please look forward to it!
Yeon: I think it will be music that we can enjoy together with our fans. Q.
Please say a few words to S2U (Hachu, official fan club name), who was with you on your debut as "Hearts2Hearts."
Jiwoo: Thank you to S2U for being with us throughout our debut promotions!
Thank you for loving us so much. Carmen: Please continue to spend happy days together with us! Juha:
Thank you so much for joining us on this start. Let's continue to spend many years together!
Stella: I'm sad that The Chase promotions are over, but I'll be back with the next song soon. I love you! Jueun: S2U!
Let's continue to make lots of happy and beautiful memories! Eina:
Thanks to S2U, we had a happy start. We will continue to be happy with S2U.
I want to make fun and precious memories. Ian: Thank you for always supporting us. We want to become "Hearts2Hearts" that infinitely responds to the love of S2U.
Yeon: Thank you for joining us on this first step of Hearts2Hearts. Let's meet for a long time to come!
