This year marks a series of meaningful milestones for N.Flying: their 10th debut anniversary, their first full-unit comeback post-military service, and the long-anticipated release of their second full-length album, Everlasting — four years after their first.
Leader Lee Seung-hyub, who took the reins in writing and composing all 12 tracks, described the moment as surreal. “It still feels like a dream. I’d been waiting for everyone to return so we could complete this together,” he said during a press interview in Seoul. Each song was handpicked to showcase the group’s evolution and sincere gratitude toward their fans.
The title track ‘Eternal Snow’ weaves together two core themes: eternity and the present moment. Lee explained, “We wanted to convey the feeling of something everlasting, like snow that doesn’t melt even in summer.” Vocalist Yoo Hwe-seung added, “From the start, I knew this was the title track. It reflects exactly who we are now—both in sound and in spirit.”
While Lee and Yoo kept the group going during the others’ military hiatus, the full group is now back—refreshed and stronger. Drummer Kim Jae-hyun shared, “We trained hard while apart, and now I can feel how much more confident and relaxed everyone is on stage.”
More than ever, the members are invested in their instruments and performance. “We’re owning our roles more deeply,” Lee said. “It’s more responsibility, but it pushes us to be better.”
With momentum building, N.Flying is launching their first world tour, &Con4: Full Circle, which will span 28 cities across Asia, the U.S., Oceania, Europe, and South America through January. Kicking off with a sold-out three-day run at Olympic Hall in Seoul, the band experienced an unforgettable welcome. Guitarist Cha Hun reflected, “The response to our new setlist was overwhelming. It truly moved us.” Kim added, “Fans were so into it, some stopped filming to just be present. That really meant a lot.”
As the youngest member, Seo Dong-sung looked back with awe: “Ten years flew by. I’m just grateful for every step.” Yoo echoed, “The journey wasn’t always smooth, but we got here by sharing it with our fans. For the next ten years, I want us to soar higher.”
The band still meets weekly for meals, bonding like family—an intimacy that fuels their creative synergy. “We’re still growing, still learning about each other,” Lee said. “At this point, we’re more than a team—we’re brothers.”
Looking ahead, N.Flying is taking it step by step. “We’ve built our career like climbing stairs—slow, but steady,” Kim said. “And we’ll keep going that way.” Yoo closed with heartfelt hope: “We want our music to bring comfort and good energy. If Everlasting can do that, we’ve done our job.”
