Fin.K.L Sets Out on a 2-Year Journey Toward Their 30th Anniversary — Full-Group Project "FIN.K.L RE:BLOOM" Announced
The group Fin.K.L, which has signaled full-group activities, is embarking on a grand journey toward their 30th debut anniversary. Following their full-group return after 21 years, they have raised the curtain on a record-scale long-term project spanning about two years. Over Two Years, Step-by-Step Activities Centered on Music and Concerts On the 23rd, Gemstone E&M announced, "Over the next two years, we plan to unveil, step by step, documentaries, variety content, exhibitions, official merchandise, brand collaborations, advertisements, fan projects, and more — centered on Fin.K.L's new music and concerts." Following their recent announcement of a full-group comeback after 21 years, the release of a concrete blueprint leading up to the 30th anniversary has put Fin.K.L's activities firmly on track. The core of this project is the new music and concerts the four members will present. Rather than stopping at revisiting past hits and memories, they plan to show a new Fin.K.L through the music and stages that today's Lee Hyori, Ock Ju-hyun, Lee Jin, and Sung Yu-ri will create. A Legend of Hits — Uniting Four Members' Colors as One Fin.K.L, who debuted in 1998, left behind numerous hits such as "Blue Rain," "To My Boyfriend," "Eternal Love," and "Now," establishing themselves as a girl group that represented an era. After all this time, how they will draw the four members' colors together into one sound is an important point of this journey. Their concerts also draw attention. The experience and depth each has built up over a long time in their own fields will meet on one stage, expected to create a new synergy that only the present-day Fin.K.L can show. Beyond music and concerts, content through which fans can experience Fin.K.L's journey in various ways is also being prepared. Documentaries and exhibitions capturing their past and future stories, along with official merchandise, brand collaborations, fan projects, and more, will be unveiled in sequence. The Meaning Behind "RE:BLOOM" — To Bloom Again The slogan running through this journey is "FIN.K.L RE:BLOOM." "RE:BLOOM" carries the meaning that, rather than simply turning back the time of a Fin.K.L that represented an era, the four members will freshly bring music, stages, and stories into bloom in their present form. In particular, this move carries special meaning in that it is not a one-off event for a specific anniversary, but a record-scale long-term project lasting about two years toward their 30th debut anniversary. The time and experience the four members have built up in their respective places will flow together as one under the name "Fin.K.L," creating new results. "A Journey to Build the Next Chapter Together" Jason Lee, CEO overseeing group management at Gemstone E&M, said, "FIN.K.L RE:BLOOM doesn't stop at commemorating Fin.K.L's past; it's a journey in which the four members and fans build the next chapter together," adding, "You can look forward to a K-pop legend project — with diverse activities leading up to the 30th anniversary centered on new music and concerts, and the birth of the Fin.K.L brand." He continued, "I want to create a special moment for the fans who have long waited for Fin.K.L, and an occasion for a new generation to meet the team called Fin.K.L anew." Not stopping at being a legend that defined an era, Fin.K.L is set to bloom again in their present form. Fans' anticipation is swelling for this record-scale long-term project toward their 30th debut anniversary. Gemstone E&M plans to share the specific details and schedule of Fin.K.L's activities in sequence, after consultation with the artists and each affiliated company.
