The project will be released this summer
K-pop powerhouse Enhypen is gearing up for their much-anticipated return with their sixth mini album,ย Desire: Unleash, slated for release on June 5th via BeLift.
As a first glimpse into this new era, the group unveils a dynamic album preview on the Hybe Labels’ official YouTube channel, featuring the members vibing freely to each of the six unique tracks. Each song is paired with a specific member and symbolic object, offering a playful yet visually thematic interpretation of the albumโs concept.
The project explores the intense yearning to become an equal with the one they love, conveying both longing and restraint through Enhypen’s own emotional lens. The genre-spanning tracklistโโBad Desire (With or Without You)โ (Dance-pop), โFlashoverโ (Electronic Future Bass), โOutsideโ (Hip-hop Trap), โLooseโ (Medium Pop), โHeliumโ (Pop Rock), and โToo Closeโ (Pop)โeach explore different shades of desire.
Produced by Grammy-winning producer Cirkut, the lead single โBad Desire (With or Without You)โ expresses an overwhelming desire to โturn you into a vampire,โ wrapped in a sleek and seductive sound. Steeped in dark fantasy, the song features paradoxical lyrics like โA heaven without you must be like hellโ and โA hell where I embrace you must be like heaven,โ adding depth to its moody vibe. Its poignant melody and dark allure are layered with Enhypen’s signature urban sensuality, elevated once again by Cirkutโs refined touch.
Further deepening the albumโs creative vision, member Jay took part in the production, lyric-writing, and guitar instrumentals for โHelium,โ showcasing his rock influence and musical versatility.
With Desire: Unleash, Enhypen continue to expand their sonic universe, evolving their artistry while remaining anchored in their emotionally rich storytelling. As the group ventures into bolder sounds and darker themes, this release is set to mark a defining moment in their artistic journey. With cryptic teasers, symbolic visuals, and a concept steeped in intensity and allure, the world has their eyes on Enhypen’s next move as they unveil a deeper, darker chapter in their story.
