The caption revealed that Somi’s solo EP GAME PLAN will be released digitally on August 7, while the physical album will only be available starting August 4.
In a press release, Somi’s agency THEBLACKLABEL teased fans on what they can expect on the soloist’s upcoming release.
“Please anticipate what music and performance Jeon Somi, who proved herself to be a solo queen with irreplaceable skills and unique charms while receiving love from many fans, will showcase [following the release of] her new profile image,” they said.
GAME PLAN will serve as Somi’s first comeback in nearly two years, following the release of her studio album XOXO in October 2021. The record features viral hits such as “Dumb Dumb,” “What You Waiting For,” “Birthday,” and “XOXO.”
Three of these songs – “Dumb Dumb,” “What You Waiting For,” “XOXO” – were featured in episodes of the hit Netflix series XO, KITTY.
Additional details about GAME PLAN, such as its number of songs and name of title track, have yet to be announced, but Somi had earlier expressed her excitement about her new music.
“I wish I could fast forward life or something and let you guys see and hear what I’ve been working on,” she wrote in a tweet.
