fromis_9 to Release First Full Album 'Glow ME' on July 21
the girls locked in a july 21 comeback with 'Glow ME,' their first full album in about three years. the teaser is bubbly, the title track is literally called 'Vitamin ME,' and no, we will not be normal about it.
a group waits three years, comes back with a full album, and names the title track 'Vitamin ME.' bestie the branding is out here working an unpaid double shift and i am OBSESSED. july 21, 6 p.m. KST. set an alarm, tell your boss.
'Glow ME' is only their second full-length ever — the first one, 'Unlock My World,' arrived back in june 2023, which in k-pop years is roughly a geological era. ten tracks. a proper album, not a two-song seasonal drive-by.
the title track runs on latin-leaning grooves under a melody engineered to lodge itself in your skull by the second chorus. bright, refreshing, faintly unhinged in the best way. it is, structurally, a july song. they understood the assignment and then laminated it.
and the rollout — the ROLLOUT. fruit teasers, vitamin teasers, an entire 'vacance' version, individual concept photos, a highlight medley, an mv teaser. they drip-fed us for two straight weeks like we're a houseplant. it worked. we are thriving. we are also insufferable.
five members, one comeback, zero chill. flovers, hydrate and take your supplement.

IVE's 'Looks Can Kill' Tracklist Adds Gaeko, Zara Larsson
the credits alone are doing numbers — Dynamic Duo's Gaeko AND Zara Larsson? okay, globalize.
IVE revealed the 'Looks Can Kill' tracklist and the featured-credits are making me gasp.
the EP's lineup includes work from Dynamic Duo's Gaeko and global pop star Zara Larsson, which is a genuinely unexpected, genuinely exciting crossover of names. IVE have never been shy about swinging big, and this credits list is a full home-run cut.
a Korean hip-hop legend and a Swedish pop hitmaker on the same IVE project? that's the kind of ambition that turns a comeback into an event. the pre-release lands October 19 and the full EP October 26.
DIVE, the tracklist is already undefeated and we haven't even heard it. 🔪
