Solo artist Jeon Somi releases her new digital single “EXTRA” on Monday, July 7, marking her return nearly 11 months after her previous track “Ice Cream.” Known for her unique musical concepts, Somi’s comeback is generating buzz among K-pop fans eager to see how she has evolved. The latest teaser posters, photo drops, and a music video preview have hinted at a significant change in mood from her past “high-teen girl” style seen in hits like “Birthday,” “Dumb Dumb,” and “Fast Forward.”
This comeback departs from Somi’s signature vivid aesthetic, instead embracing muted tones and a darker, more mysterious concept. A snippet of “EXTRA” revealed during her performance at Waterbomb Seoul 2025 introduced a dreamlike melody, signaling a musical transformation. The track’s haunting yet radiant atmosphere suggests a deepened artistic expression, showcasing a broader musical spectrum.
Somi’s return is bolstered by the support of The Black Label’s head producer TEDDY, a key figure in the global expansion of K-pop. His production team, also involved in projects like the rookie group ALLDAY PROJECT and Netflix’s “K-Pop: Demon Hunters” soundtrack, contributes to the anticipation surrounding “EXTRA.” Additionally, Somi will connect with fans through her upcoming fan meeting tour “JEON SOMI 2025 FAN MEETING [CHAOS],” kicking off in Seoul on July 19, followed by stops in Tokyo and Osaka. The new single will be available on all major streaming platforms from 6 PM on July 7.
