#1 TOP DEFINITION

불금 — fire Friday / TGIF. From 불 (fire) + 금요일 (Friday). The excitement of Friday as the gateway to the weekend. In K-pop, many albums and music videos are strategically released on Fridays (often midnight KST) to maximize streaming. Fan communities prepare for 불금 comebacks with streaming guides, playlist links, and coordinated listening parties.

Example
The label chose 불금 midnight for the comeback drop — ARMY had coffee and streaming playlists ready by Thursday evening.
