Singer Jeon Somi is set to make her return to the music scene next month with the digital single “EXTRA,” her first release in a year.

Her agency, The Black Label, announced the news on Friday via official social media channels, sharing a teaser image along with the announcement that “EXTRA” will be released at 6 p.m. on July 7.

The comeback follows her 2023 single “Ice Cream,” which showcased Somi’s cool and vibrant summer energy and cemented her image as a “summer queen.” Anticipation is now building over whether her latest release will again take over the season’s charts.

In the teaser photo, Somi exudes a chic and mature vibe, sporting a short bob haircut and minimal black outfit, a striking contrast to the bubbly, playful image she has often embraced in the past.

Somi is also scheduled to meet fans in person through her 2025 fan meeting tour, “CHAOS,” which begins in Seoul on July 19 and continues in Tokyo and Osaka. The release of her new single ahead of the tour adds to the growing excitement among fans.

“EXTRA” will be available on major music streaming platforms starting July 7 at 6 p.m.
