K-pop girl group aespa will return next month with its sixth EP, "Rich Man," the group's agency, SM Entertainment, announced Monday.
Following its three successive hits — "Supernova," "Armageddon" and "Whiplash" — the K-pop quartet achieved million-seller status with its latest single, "Dirty Work," released in June.
The new album, set for release Sept. 5, consists of six tracks, including the title track "Rich Man."
SM said the upcoming EP is not about a "rich man" in the conventional sense but rather aims to redefine aespa's own version of a "rich man" — one brimming with unparalleled energy and power.
"The album will showcase the group's more distinct individuality and musical color," the agency added.
