H1-KEY to ring in 2026 with heartfelt new song at ‘2026 Countdown Show LIGHT NOW’

Girl group H1-KEY is set to light up the year-end stage with a warm and heartfelt new song.

On December 31, H1-KEY will appear at the large-scale official New Year’s countdown event ‘2026 Countdown Show LIGHT NOW,’ held around the digital signage area of Shinsegae Department Store’s main branch in Jung-gu, Seoul. At the event, the group will unveil a live performance of their new song "Not Like a Movie," marking its first-ever stage ahead of its official release.

"Not Like a Movie" is H1-KEY’s upcoming single, scheduled for release on January 5, 2026. The track captures a cozy winter mood, and by pre-releasing the performance at the countdown show, H1-KEY aims to deliver a meaningful New Year’s greeting to fans.

The release of the new song will also mark H1-KEY’s fourth debut anniversary, officially kicking off the group’s activities for 2026.

The ‘2026 Countdown Show LIGHT NOW,’ featuring H1-KEY, will be broadcast live on KBS 1TV as well as the KBS YouTube channel.
