After a long hiatus from the K-pop world, good news has come for Merry—the nickname for MOMOLAND fans. On April 10, 2025, reported by MK Sports and quoted from Soompi on Friday April 11, 2025, the six members of MOMOLAND, namely Hyebin, Jane, Nayun, JooE, Ahin, and Nancy officially signed an exclusive contract with a new agency, Inyeon Entertainment .
The contract was specifically made for the group's promotional activities, marking MOMOLAND's return as a single entity in the Korean music industry. Inyeon Entertainment also confirmed the news, stating that they will fully support all of the group's future activities.
Although the six members will continue their solo careers in acting, variety shows, and more, they will now be performing together again as a long-missed group. MOMOLAND first debuted on November 10, 2016 under MLD Entertainment, through the mini album 'Welcome to MOMOLAND'.
Their name skyrocketed to the top ranks of K-pop thanks to a series of hit songs such as 'BBoom BBoom,' 'BAAM,' 'Thumbs Up,' 'Wonderful Love,' and 'Yummy Yummy Love.' Their energetic performances and cheerful concepts made MOMOLAND one of the most memorable girl groups of their time, even reaching fans from all over the world.
Unfortunately, after their contract with MLD Entertainment ended in January 2023, the group announced their official disbandment on February 14, 2023. At that time, despite the members stating that they would remain a "team forever," MOMOLAND was declared to be halting group activities.
Not only that, their former agency was also reportedly facing financial difficulties, as reported by Koreaboo on the same Friday. However, the spirit to create never dies. MOMOLAND is back and immediately raises the enthusiasm of its fans.
This news is also a kind of sweet gift, especially in the midst of their previous great achievements. In April 2023, the music video for 'BBoom BBoom' reached 600 million views on YouTube—making them the third K-pop girl group to achieve this feat after BLACKPINK and TWICE.
Each member has also made their own achievements during the hiatus. One of them is Nancy, who is rumored to be debuting as an actress soon. As reported by Pink Villa, Nancy will star in an action film titled 'Pig Valley', directed by top actor Ma Dong Seok.
The film will be a global project set in Texas, United States, and all dialogue will be in English. Nancy, who is fluent in English due to her family background and childhood abroad, is considered very suitable for this role.
Although the details of her character are still under wraps, fans are eagerly awaiting her first appearance on the big screen. Previously, in 2017, she had a brief role in a music web drama while still active as a member of a girl group. However, the project was not a full-fledged big-screen production.
Therefore, the upcoming film is an important opportunity for her to make a strong first impression as an actress. Meanwhile, news of MOMOLAND's comeback as a group has many fans looking forward to new music from them.
It is hoped that their appearance under the new agency will bring a fresh spirit, while maintaining the cheerful and energetic characteristics that once made them so loved. With renewed enthusiasm and unwavering fan support, MOMOLAND is ready to prove that they still have a special place in the K-pop music industry.
