EVNNE showcased a refreshing charm aimed at summer. Today (17th), EVNNE held a showcase at YES24 Live Hall in Kwangjang-dong, Kwangjin-gu, Seoul to commemorate the release of their 3rd mini album "RIDE or DIE". Since releasing their 2nd mini album "Un:SEEN" in January, they made a comeback after about 5 months. They achieved 1st place on real-time charts, music show wins, and results from their Asia tour, rapidly growing into a hot idol. Starting from August, they will embark on a tour in America, expanding their activities. Keita expressed gratitude for being able to come back quickly with their 3rd mini album, filled with passion and energy, hoping to be loved by many. Park Hanbin returned with a refreshing charm completely different from previous albums, promising to show many refreshing stages. Park Jif explained that they paid special attention to facial expressions in this song, thinking a lot about how to look while dancing. The title track "Badder Love" is a synthwave genre song that delivers emotion with a rhythm that highlights beautiful vocal melodies and refreshing synths. EVNNE's unique straightforwardness, expressing a forward-looking attitude towards you without regret, delivers a refreshing and energetic charm. Chi Yoonso explained that although they had been active with intense songs as bad boys in previous albums, this time they returned with a refreshing atmosphere, which suited them. Park Hanbin expressed that this album, prepared since the beginning of the year, is a new concept they worked hard on, showing a charming gap and hoping to be watched over in the future. Mun Junghyun stated that their charm, like boys of the same age, is unique to them, and he wants people to see the dynamism on stage, their energetic appearance, and the expressions of the members. Regarding the performance, Mun Junghyun explained that they tried to show a natural and soft atmosphere, working hard to add powerful elements. Park Jif revealed that he created a point dance and showed a choreography combining "Badder" and hearts. He mentioned that he came up with it suddenly while listening to the song on the plane back from a concert in Japan, and everyone liked it, so it was adopted. The music video is filled with refreshing energy. Yu Seungwon mentioned that before shooting in Jeju Island, he wanted to show a professional side by learning boxing. Since no members actually knew boxing and it was a music video involving boxing, he remembered shooting while receiving lessons. The 3rd mini album "RIDE or DIE" includes a total of 6 songs, including the title track "Badder Love," as well as "I <3 U (I love U)," "XO," "2X," "Boom Bari," and an English version of the title track "Badder Love." EVNNE has released the tracklist for their 3rd mini album "RIDE or DIE... Title track is "Badder Love."
