GOT the Beat

GOT the Beat is the first unit of SM Entertainment's girl group project Girls On Top. It is introduced as a project group bringing together members from several generations of SM girl groups and a solo star. Powerful performances by highly skilled members are its signature.

GOT the Beat debuted on January 3, 2022, with "Step Back." Before the song's release, the group first performed it on January 1, 2022, at the SMTOWN LIVE 2022 concert. The powerful performance drew a great deal of attention. It quickly became one of the most talked-about stages of the event.

GOT the Beat consists of seven members: BoA, Taeyeon, Hyoyeon, Seulgi, Wendy, Karina and Winter. BoA is a solo singer, Taeyeon and Hyoyeon are from Girls' Generation, Seulgi and Wendy are from Red Velvet, and Karina and Winter are from aespa. The lineup bridges several generations.

GOT the Beat is managed by SM Entertainment. Official news about releases, concerts and fan events is shared through the agency and the group's official channels. If you are curious about new activities, checking the agency's announcements first is the most dependable approach.

The "GOT" in GOT the Beat matches the initials of the project it belongs to, Girls On Top. In English, it is written with GOT in capital letters, as in "GOT the beat." The group name was made to connect naturally with the project name.

After the debut song "Step Back," GOT the Beat released its first mini album, Stamp On It, on January 16, 2023, and promoted the song of the same name. Both songs feature striking performances, so they are best enjoyed together with their stage videos.

GOT the Beat received a Bonsang (main prize) at the 2023 Seoul Music Awards. "Step Back," released in January 2022, is widely seen as the song that introduced the group to a broad audience. For exact category names and award history, please check each ceremony's official records.

GOT the Beat has had no new group activities since promoting its first mini album in 2023, so it can be considered on hiatus. No official disbandment has been announced. For any new group news, SM Entertainment's official channels are the most accurate source.

If you are new, start with the stage video of the debut song "Step Back" to feel the group's powerful energy. Then listen to the whole first mini album, Stamp On It, to cover all of GOT the Beat's music. Exploring the members' original groups is a nice next step too.

The GOT the Beat members are active as solo artists or as members of their original groups. So the most accurate way to follow each member is through their own official channels, such as those of BoA, Girls' Generation, Red Velvet and aespa. Please avoid spreading unconfirmed rumors.
