NewJeans are “preparing and practicing” for their comeback.
The South Korean girl group – comprising Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein – “can’t wait to share new music with everyone,” but they are keep tight-lipped on when that will be.
Speaking on the red carpet at Billboard’s Women in Music event – where they were crowned Group of the Year – in Los Angeles this week, Danielle said: “Well, I mean we can’t spoil too much.
“I’m just gonna say that we’re preparing and practicing hard.”
The girls have released two EPs, a self-titled collection in 2022 and 2023’s ‘Get Up’.
NewJeans – who formed in 2022 – have played a handful of music festivals and awards show, including Lollapalooza and Summer Sonic Festival, last summer, but they are yet to do a headline tour.
The five-piece released the ‘League of Legends’ World Championship soundtrack in 2023.
They had “fun” exploring a “new genre” to them with ‘Gods’, which was penned by Riot Games’ principal composer Sebastien Najand and Mako’s Alex Seaver.
The band said: “It was fun to try a new genre and sound.
Through this collaboration, we are happy to present a song that incorporates both NewJeans’ and League of Legends’ unique colours. We hope it brings you a new sense of empowerment!”
NewJeans followed in the footsteps of Lil Nas X, Imagine Dragons, and Against The Current in releasing the official soundtrack.
