GFriend recently made a comeback. The girl group released new mini album "Sunny Summer", which has the title song of the same title. The song is good, and the pretty and lovely 6 girls give off their fresh charm again through the catchy music.
By the way, what's notable about GFriend's comeback is that other popular girl groups such as TWICE and MAMAMOO released their new albums around the same time. Actually, there are some reasons why so many k-pop girl groups usually release their new albums in summer. First, the hot weather of summer always tempts girl groups to expose their hot bodies, and cheerful dance music usually gain great popularity in summer. Yeah, summer is the perfect season for girl groups to give off their sexy charm. Second, Korea has many festivals in autumn, and the festivals are the major sources of income for girl groups. The groups should release their new songs in summer and make money in autumn by performing the songs at a variety of festivals.
Anyway, it seems many people are interested in the rivalry between GFriend and TWICE. You know, both of the young girl group debuted in 2015, and they have been enjoying great popularity since then. As the future of k-pop industry, the two girl groups have been receiving great attention from people in the industry.
However, it seems GFriend members don't think of TWICE as their rival. In their recent interview, they said they're very close with TWICE members and the members are their good friends. Check out what GFriend members talked about TWICE.

They recently called us, saying they watched our comeback teaser. They said they liked it. I love their new song too, and especially, I love their choreography. I told them that I wanted to have a collaboration with them someday.

Yeah, we talk to each other a lot in everyday life. When we show collaborative performance at the end-of-year music awards, we usually encourage each other by messenger before hitting the stage.
