LE SSERAFIM Are Making History at iHeartRadio and They're Just Getting Started
LE SSERAFIM are heading back to The Jennifer Hudson Show for their third appearance on the popular US talk show, roughly ten months after their last visit. The group also makes history at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas on the 19th as the first K-pop girl group to perform at the event, alongside BTS, Cardi B, and Snoop Dogg.

LE SSERAFIM are returning to The Jennifer Hudson Show for the third time, with Source Music (HYBE) confirming the group's participation in a new taping. The visit comes about ten months after their second appearance on the show in October last year, which itself followed a debut slot in 2024.
The fact that a major US daytime talk show keeps inviting a K-pop group back says something real about where LE SSERAFIM stands in the American market right now.
A week that barely fits on a calendar
The Jennifer Hudson booking is only the opening act of an extraordinarily dense US stretch. On the 13th, the group takes the main stage at BlizzCon 2026, the massive gaming and entertainment festival hosted by Blizzard Entertainment. Six days later, on the 19th in Las Vegas, they perform at the iHeartRadio Music Festival, making history as the first K-pop girl group ever to appear at the event. They join a lineup that includes BTS, Cardi B, Snoop Dogg, and Benson Boone.
Rounding out the run is a nine-city North American tour, kicking off in Los Angeles on the 16th.
New music to match the moment
All of this arrives alongside a new release. LE SSERAFIM drop their second single album, featuring the title track Made My Night, on the 11th at 1 p.m. KST. The timing is clearly deliberate: a fresh song lands just before the group floods US stages, giving North American audiences something current to attach to the performances.
For a group that has been methodically building a live reputation in the US since their first Jennifer Hudson taping two years ago, this week looks less like a promotional sprint and more like a victory lap they actually earned.
