As the new year rolls in, the Japanese boy group BE:FIRST is looking back at an unforgettable 2024 while setting their sights on an even bigger 2025. The year ahead marks a historic moment for the group as they prepare for their first-ever world tour—a giant leap in their already impressive journey.

The past year was a huge one for BE:FIRST, filled with collaborations, new music, and worldwide recognition. Their partnerships with the Korean boy group ATEEZ on tracks like Hush-Hush and Royal were major highlights, blending the styles of both groups and showing their versatility and global appeal. These songs, which married both groups’ sounds, opened the doors for BE:FIRST to gain even more international fans.

But that wasn’t all. The group released their second studio album 2:BE, which featured a mix of songs that proved how much they’ve grown as artists. Tracks like Blissful, Boom Boom Back, Masterplan, and Glorious showcased their range, from high-energy anthems to deep, emotional ballads. The album’s themes of growth, identity, and resilience struck a chord with listeners, making it clear that BE:FIRST is not just about catchy beats but meaningful music.

To top it all off, their single Sailing became the ending theme for the globally popular anime ONE PIECE, earning them even more international recognition.

With 2024’s massive successes, BE:FIRST is now turning their attention to 2025, and it’s clear that this year will be even bigger. The group is about to take their artistry to the global stage with their first-ever world tour. Details are still under wraps, but the excitement is palpable as they prepare to bring their electrifying performances to new international fans.

Their upcoming DOME TOUR 2024-2025 “2:BE” will see BE:FIRST performing in major Japanese cities like Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Fukuoka, solidifying their place as one of Japan’s top boy bands. But that’s just the beginning—after that, they’ll hit global stages, expanding their reach to fans around the world.

What’s more, BE:FIRST has no plans of slowing down. With new music, potential collaborations, and more surprises in store, they are ready to keep pushing the boundaries of J-pop, delivering even more innovative songs and performances to their ever-growing fanbase, known as BESTY.

As they gear up for the next chapter, BE:FIRST is determined to make 2025 a year that will go down in history. With their hard work, unique sound, and relentless dedication, they’re ready to become the next global superstars of the music scene. From their stunning performances to their inspiring messages, BE:FIRST is showing the world what J-pop is all about—and they’re just getting started.
