First-generation legend K-pop icon Fin.K.L will return as a full group for the first time in about 21 years.

Gemstone i&EM announced on the 21st that "Fin.K.L is preparing for full-group activities with its four members: Lee Hyo-ri, Ok Joo-hyun, Lee Jin, and Sung Yu-ri."

This marks Fin.K.L's first activity as a full group since their digital single album 'Forever Fin.K.L' in 2005, approximately 21 years later. Although the four members reunited through JTBC's 'Camping Club' in 2019 to release a new song, that was more of a special project triggered by the broadcast. This time, it holds unique significance as a new beginning for sustained activities under the name 'Fin.K.L,' going beyond one-off meetings.

Debuting in 1998, Fin.K.L created numerous hit songs such as 'Blue Rain,' 'To My Boyfriend,' 'Eternal Love,' and 'Now,' establishing themselves as a cornerstone of South Korea's girl group history. Displaying a wide spectrum from pure images to bold and powerful concepts, they solidified their position as the leading first-generation girl group representing the music scene at the time.

They captivated both the public and fans by sweeping number-one spots on various music shows and major award ceremonies, leaving an immense impact on countless girl groups that emerged afterward. They remain a name synonymous with the lineage of K-pop girl groups.

Since then, Lee Hyo-ri, Ok Joo-hyun, Lee Jin, and Sung Yu-ri have each built independent careers in their respective fields. Lee Hyo-ri has maintained her unique presence as both a singer and entertainer, while Ok Joo-hyun has established herself at the top tier as a musical actress. Lee Jin and Sung Yu-ri have also consistently remained active across acting and broadcasting, carving out their own domains.

The fact that these four individuals, who have spent long years cultivating their own paths in their respective fields, are now moving together as one team gives this move even greater significance.

Especially since they are embarking on full-scale activities under the name 'Fin.K.L' once again after more than 21 years, attention is focused not only on nostalgia but also on what 'Fin.K.L of 2026'—the current Lee Hyo-ri, Ok Joo-hyun, Lee Jin, and Sung Yu-ri—will showcase.

Meanwhile, Fin.K.L's full-group activities will be promoted through collaboration between Gemstone i&EM, the four members, and relevant agencies, with Gemstone i&EM taking charge of overall planning and operations.

Jason Lee, CEO of Gemstone i&EM Group, stated, "Fin.K.L is an artist with symbolic significance in South Korea's popular music history." He added, "We will sequentially present various activities to create new moments for fans who have waited a long time for Fin.K.L."
