aespa Winter, intense visuals with a sword revealed in the 'WDA' teaser... "Excitement for the new album UP"


The girl group aespa will release the pre-release track "WDA (Whole Different Animal)" from their second full-length album on May 11 at 6 PM (KST). This song is the lead track of the full album 〖LEMONADE〗, which will be released on May 29 at 1 PM, and it is expected to expand aespa's unique worldview along with a new musical transformation.
In this album, aespa plans to showcase their distinctive musical color through diverse sounds and concepts centered around the theme of lemonade, symbolizing "newness." Member Winter exuded an intense gaze while wearing white clothes and holding a sword in one hand in the teaser photo for the "WDA" music video, completing a visually overwhelming look that contrasts with the red monochrome background. With long black hair and extended nails, she expressed a mysterious yet sophisticated atmosphere, raising fans' expectations.
aespa continues to steadily grow their influence in the global music market, and recently members Ningning and Karina have been accelerating their overseas activities, including departing for New York to attend the "Met Gala 2026." Ahead of the full album release, they plan to communicate with the public through various promotions and content.
The pre-release track "WDA" is available on major domestic and international music platforms, and the full album 〖LEMONADE〗 will be officially released at noon on May 29. Fans can access the album pre-order page through the official website and links. Starting with "WDA," aespa plans to carry out active promotions throughout the year with evolved music and performances.
