BLITZERS: Making waves on Britain’s Got Talent and new EP LUNCH-BOX
In partnership with Mystery Friends International
By Dale Fox
K-pop group BLITZERS have turned heads as the first K-pop act to compete on Britain’s Got Talent, marking a watershed moment for both the K-pop scene and international music fans.
In mid-May, BLITZERS lit up the BGT stage with a rendition of Shawn Mendes’ ‘There’s Nothing Holdin’ Me Back’. Their performance showcased the polished choreography and vocal prowess that K-pop acts are known for, while also rightfully catching the judges’ attention.
Alesha Dixon praised the group’s polish, while Bruno Tonioli said they were “as good as anything I’ve seen around the world in the last 15 years.” Even Simon Cowell, known for his icy critiques, was impressed, noting, “It seems to me that you’re very ambitious and you’re friends. This is just brilliant, really.”
The group’s talent and charm carried them through to the semi-finals, where they upped the ante with a performance of WAR*HALL’s ‘Bring That Fire’. What’s more, BLITZERS continue to make history with several firsts in the K-pop scene. They became the first K-pop group to visit Pakistan, where they filmed a music video and interviewed local media.
Fresh tunes: LUNCH-BOX EP and catchy title track ‘SUPERPOWER’
Riding the wave of their success, BLITZERS dropped their fourth EP, LUNCH-BOX, on 19 June. The EP’s upbeat single, ‘SUPERPOWER’, promises to be a catchy addition to summer playlists. Its video shows the group in and around the streets of London, showcasing their polished dance moves (and even helping the city’s residents out of sticky situations. SUPERPOWER indeed).
LUNCH-BOX follows the group’s third EP, WIN-DOW, continuing their musical journey theme. While WIN-DOW explored new beginnings, LUNCH-BOX dives into the excitement of the journey itself, offering fans a glimpse into BLITZERS’ growth and experiences.
