Jeon Somi Unleashes Her Darkest Era Yet
K-pop soloist Jeon Somi is back—and she’s diving deeper and darker than ever. Her label, THEBLACKLABEL, has revealed a moody new teaser poster for ‘CLOSER,’ the title track from her upcoming second EP, Chaotic & Confused, set to drop on August 11 at 6PM KST.
‘CLOSER’ Sets a Mysterious Tone
In the newly released image, Somi peeks through parted curtains, her gaze vacant, body language distant. Surrounded by a barren, desaturated backdrop, the shot radiates eerie stillness—an unexpected pivot from her usually vibrant visuals. It’s a clear message: get ready for the unexpected.
Her pre-release single ‘EXTRA‘ (released on July 7) already hinted at a genre-bending reinvention. With ‘CLOSER’ continuing that narrative, fans are speculating about the concept behind this new era. Spoiler alert: It’s giving “pop noir meets emotional chaos.”
5 Tracks, Infinite Vibes
Chaotic & Confused features five songs, including ‘EXTRA’ and the new title track. But what’s really turning heads is Jeon Somi’s personal touch: she co-wrote and co-composed two songs—‘Escapade’ and ‘DELU’—promising a deeper dive into her story and sound. She’s clearly not just an idol; she’s here to build a sonic identity on her own terms.
Global Fans, She’s Coming Closer
Kicking off this new era with a fan-first mindset, Somi held her exclusive Seoul fan meeting ‘JEON SOMI 2025 FAN MEETING [CHAOS] IN SEOUL‘ on July 19 at the Hyundai Card Understage. Think intimate vibes and real talk. And she’s not stopping there—Tokyo and Osaka are next for her overseas fan tour.
Mark Your Calendars
If ‘EXTRA’ was the appetizer, ‘CLOSER’ is shaping up to be the pop main course with a haunting twist. All eyes (and ears) will be on Somi when Chaotic & Confused releases worldwide August 11.
