As they neared the end of the concert, RIIZE took an unconventional route by covering “One Thing” by One Direction. Their choice was particularly unexpected because, while it is common for rookie K-Pop groups to honor songs by senior K-Pop idols, opting for a track by a Western boy band is considerably less typical.

For any of those who may not know, “One Thing” is a beloved hit from the early years of One Direction — a British boy band that has since disbanded but continues to hold a significant place in the hearts of fans.
The decision to cover a One Direction song not only showcased RIIZE’s versatile musical capabilities but could also hint at a future strategic move from SM Entertainment. The performance could be linked to the company’s recent announcement of its plans to launch a new boy group in the UK in collaboration with British entertainment company M&B.
| SM Entertainment Regardless of SM’s future plans, RIIZE’s “One Thing” cover was a success due to their versatility and proven performance skills. The six members present covered the song flawlessly and impressed fans with their raw vocals. The proof of this is everywhere online, as the group cover is currently trending, and videos posted on X (formerly known as Twitter) have garnered hundreds of thousands of views.
