RIIZE is filling the end of 2025 with abundant stages and content. RIIZE kicked off their performance at the 'MMA 2025' held on December 20 with "Fame," showcasing a hip mood and boldness. They then presented the "Bag Bad Back" stage, which maximized grandeur with a runway performance, and the "Fly Up" stage, adding diverse fun with arrangements based on a youth musical. Through these performances, they once again proved the growth they achieved throughout the year.
On the same day at the 'MMA,' RIIZE won three awards: 'Best Performance Male,' 'TOP10,' and 'Millions TOP10.' Additionally, at the earlier 'AAA,' they achieved a triple crown by winning 'Performance of the Year,' 'Best Artist,' and 'Emotive' categories. Furthermore, they received awards at the 'MAMA AWARDS' for 'Fans' Choice' and at the 'KGMA' for 'Best Artist 10,' making a total of eight awards at year-end ceremonies in 2025.
RIIZE's first full-length album, "ODYSSEY," released in May this year, was listed on Billboard's "Top 25 K-Pop Albums of 2025: Staff Picks." The album's final track, "Another Life," was selected as one of the "15 Songs Representing K-Pop in 2025" by the UK magazine CLASH, receiving global acclaim.
On December 23, RIIZE released the "2025 RIIZING Awards Night" content on their official YouTube channel. This content is themed around an in-house awards ceremony and featured MCs Seongchan and Eunseok hosting. It included cheerful scenes such as awards for this year's laughter maker, the member who was a source of strength, the scene-stealer, best dresser, special stages, and prize draws, all selected through a guerrilla vote involving members and over 80,000 fans. On the 30th, a tearful "Deep Talk" session welcoming the new year is also scheduled to be released.
RIIZE plans to wrap up the year-end by appearing on SBS's "Gayo Daejeon" on December 25, KBS2TV's "Music Bank Global Festival" on the 30th, and MBC's "Gayo Daejejeon" on the 31st. Through various stages and content, they will communicate with fans and mark the end of 2025. RIIZE's activities are drawing significant attention from K-pop fans, and their growth is expected to continue.
