2025, aka our seventh year with TXT, has come to an end! Yet again, it’s been another busy year for our five, full of success. There are plenty of moments for us to relive in this year’s edition of Music Rewind, so we honestly struggled to narrow it down! So, before we get stuck into it, here’s an honorable mention for new OSTs, TXT’s UNICEF partnership, and probably 304 other things. Ok, here we go!
Hiatus & Return
TXT’s 2025 started on a true high (a high-atus?), when they took some well-deserved time off! After a hectic 2024 and Soobin’s hiatus beginning a bit earlier than expected, MOAs couldn’t have been happier to see TXT get some rest. On their return, they kicked off with an ot5 episode of BEOMIDIO, including an in-person audience of MOAs! Doesn’t the time apart just make reuniting that much sweeter?
ACT: PROMISE PT.2
As soon as TXT were back to work, they started 2025 in a big way! They announced an extension of their third world tour, ACT: PROMISE, including a European leg for the first time ever. European MOAs were over the moon (seriously, see their genuine reactions here), and so was the THP hive. We attended the Barcelona and London shows, and we’re still not over it.
‘Panic’
Feeling overwhelmed by how great TXT’s 2025 is already? Well, don’t ‘Panic.’ Or do. Because next up was the members’ first solo release of the year! Beomgyu wrote, produced, and of course, released his first mixtape track, ‘Panic,’ which was allegedly heavily influenced by the group’s brief hiatus. Months later, we’re still completely enamored by the indie track, and we can’t wait for more solo Beomgyu in the future!
‘Love Language’
In May, we celebrated TXT’s first comeback of the year! The digital single, ‘Love Language,’ quickly gained recognition, not just for how great the afro-house anthem is, but thanks to that dance move, too. And in case TXT hadn’t been busy enough on their first European tour, they filmed the music video whilst they were in Barcelona. Watching it, you wouldn’t think it had been freezing cold and pouring with rain the whole time, would you?
The Star Chapter: TOGETHER
From a digital single to their fourth full-length album, next up in TXT’s 2025 was The Star Chapter: TOGETHER! This album was special for many reasons, not least because it wrapped up all of TXT’s lore and fairytale-like storyline so far. An album essentially seven years in the making, TSC:T also gave us solo bsides from each member, and music videos for each of them. Plus, Yeonjun’s ‘Ghost Girl’ was filmed while on tour in London, in case you needed further proof that TXT love to multitask.
ACT: TOMORROW
TXT really leaned into the name references this year, didn’t they? Did no one tell them that The Name Chapter is so 2023? Anyway, in late Summer, TXT embarked on their fourth world tour, which basically carried them through to the end of the year. Spoiler alert, the next section is about a very special moment from the first ACT: TOMORROW shows…
MOA’s Birthday & Contract Renewal
In 2025, TXT turned seven! Once upon a time, this was thought of as the “cursed” year for idol groups, as it tends to be around this point that their initial contracts expire. This, if not the euphoria of seeing your faves renew their contracts, can lead to line-up changes or complete disbandment, aka a stan’s greatest fear.
Not for TXT, though! 7 years, 5 months, and 18 days after their debut, the group announced that all members had renewed their contracts and would continue to promote as TOMORROW X TOGETHER. To make the moment even sweeter, TXT announced this themselves, on stage, during the opening show of ACT: TOMORROW, on MOA’s birthday! This wasn’t just a highlight for 2025, but all of TXT’s career!
Starkissed
It wouldn’t be a year with TXT, without a Japanese comeback, right? In October, we were gifted Starkissed, which is probably our fave Japanese album from tubatu ever. The lead single, ‘Can’t Stop,’ is agonisingly underrated, so we’ll carry the duty of making sure everyone falls in love with it! Plus, with plenty of original songs and Japanese versions of MOA favorites, what more could you ask for?
NO LABELS: PART 01
As if MOAs hadn’t had enough new music from TXT in 2025, we also got the first solo debut album from Yeonjun! NO LABELS: PART 01 is, no exaggeration, an utter masterpiece, as we have said many, many times. 2025 was an epic year for MOAs, but with NO LABELS: PART 02 potentially in our near future, maybe 2026 will be even more of a treat.
Variety Shows
Unsurprisingly, when it comes to this group, TXT weren’t content with just giving us bop after bop. Alongside guesting on plenty of variety shows, the members’ continued to star in their own shows! We got to devour plenty more TO DO and a second season of Soobin’s My Fave’s Faves, but that’s not all! Tubatu introduced NOT TO DO, which sees them check out things like personal color analysis.
Most excitingly, though, Huening Kai and Taehyun launched brand new shows! Tefficient Terry, Taehyun’s show, in a similar vein to his previous series, Academy Reincarnation, saw him take on new jobs and concepts that are supposedly odd fits for those of us with T-type MBTIs. Most recently, Kai released the first couple of episodes of Countless Friends, where he tries to, well, make friends, whilst the other members (helpfully and unhelpfully) secretly guide him.
Awards
TXT won yet more awards in 2025 (though, obviously, we think they deserved even more), but one award show stands out more than the rest. Back in February, TXT attended the 32nd Hanteo Music Awards. Alongside their always-epic performances, they scooped some pretty important prizes. TXT won Global Artist – North America, and Yeonjun won Global Artist – Oceania, marking the first time any of them had won a solo award of this caliber. Most excitingly of all, our tubatu took home the Best Performance award, their very first daesang! That moment was a long time coming (and hideously overdue, TBH), so we couldn’t have been more thrilled for them. Here’s to more in 2026?!
What’s Next?
Speaking of 2026, what is up next for TXT? Well, as we said, we’ve got our fingers crossed that NO LABELS: PART 02 is in our near future. Are we spoilt? We’re also super excited to see which direction TXT take next for their album concepts, now that their storyline is all wrapped up! Regardless, we’re pretty confident we’ll eat it up.
