Yuqi: The Announcement
On September 23 KST, Yuqi confirmed the details of her return with her second solo mini album, “27,” set to release on October 8 at 1 p.m. KST. Alongside the announcement, she dropped the first round of teaser images, giving fans an early visual preview of the upcoming era’s concept and aesthetic.
What We Know So Far?

| Release | Second solo mini album |
| Title | “27” |

The title “27” strongly suggests a personal, age-reflective theme for the record — a common approach among K-pop soloists using milestone numbers to frame an album’s emotional core, though further concept details haven’t been unveiled yet.
Why This Comeback Matters?
Yuqi has built a distinct identity as a soloist separate from her work with (G)I-DLE, and each solo release tends to lean into a more personal, artist-driven direction compared to the group’s high-concept group releases. With teaser images already rolling out, fans can expect the usual promotional cycle — individual and group concept photos, a tracklist reveal, and a highlight medley — to follow in the lead-up to October 8.
