OMG, K-Pop Pulse is here with the tea on Santos Bravos, and you’re gonna wanna stan! 🤩 Our fave boys from Hybe Latin America are officially dropping their new track, ‘Kawasaki,’ on the 30th (local time), and it’s already giving us ‘power-packed beats’ and ‘dynamic performance’ vibes. The agency spilled that this song totally showcases the ‘outstanding stage capabilities’ of Drew, Alejandro, Cauê, Gabi, and Kenneth, all crafted with that iconic ‘K-Pop methodology.’ Get ready for it! ✨
But wait, there’s more! Their visuals are seriously next-level sophisticated. We’re talking about none other than Lorenzo Posocco, the creative director behind pop legends like Dua Lipa, Troye Sivan, and Sabrina Carpenter, now styling our boys! Lorenzo is living his best life, making his ‘teenage self’s iconic work’ a reality with Santos Bravos’ ‘energy and popularity.’ We love to see it! 💅
And if that wasn’t enough, Santos Bravos absolutely slayed at Willy Chavarria’s 2026 Fall/Winter Collection show ‘Eterno’ in Paris on the 23rd! They owned that massive runway, channeling ‘free-spirited boyish charm’ for Chavarria’s collection, which was all about love and inclusion. Their debut track ‘0%’ was performed with so much energy, bright smiles, and that ‘perfectly synchronized choreography’ that had the crowd buzzing. A true fusion of fashion and music, it was fire! 🔥 Willy Chavarria himself called them a ‘breath of fresh air’ and ‘a true Latin boy group’ he’d met in years. We agree, King! 👑
Post-show, they even surprised global media by dropping a snippet of ‘Kawasaki’ and its performance! Talk about main character energy! The flashes were going off, and the hype was real. 📸 These kings are seriously making waves, even getting nominated for ‘New Male Artist of the Year’ at the ‘2026 Premio Lo Nuestro’ awards on February 19th in Miami, just three months after their debut! Talk about a glow-up! 📈
Debuting last October in Mexico after their reality series (all under Bang Si-hyuk’s ‘multi-home, multi-genre’ strategy!), Santos Bravos already have over 8.2 million followers combined on SNS and more than 253 million video views. The global domination is real, and we are so here for it! Stan Santos Bravos! 💖
