Choi Yena Returns with Style and Energy
On June 29, former IZ*ONE member Choi Yena greeted fans and reporters at the Blue Square SOL Travel Hall in Hannam-dong, Seoul, to celebrate the release of her fourth mini album, Blooming Wings. Kicking off the media showcase with a cheerful hello, Yena looked confident and radiant as ever.
‘Blooming Wings’ Takes Flight
Yena’s new project promises a more evolved sound and concept. Staying true to her bubblegum-pop foundations while experimenting with more mature themes, the album is packed with tracks that showcase her signature charisma and vocal color. It’s a bold blend of feel-good energy and emotional growth—exactly what fans have come to love from her post-IZ*ONE journey.
Fashion, Feathers, and Flying High
Dressed in a whimsical ensemble that matched her album’s fluttery theme, Yena embodied the concept of “blooming wings.” Her visual transformation signaled a fresh chapter in her career. Think less schoolgirl, more pop fairy with attitude.
Fan Anticipation Soars
Fans are already buzzing online, predicting title track domination over music charts. As one fan put it, “She’s not just blooming—she’s soaring.” Yena has been steadily earning her stripes as a soloist since IZ*ONE’s disbandment, and Blooming Wings may just be her most defining era yet.
From Stage Rookie to Self-Assured Star
Debuting with IZ*ONE and transitioning successfully into solo work is no easy feat, but Yena continues to prove she’s more than a former girl group member—she’s an artist in her own right. Sparkly, quirky, and full of heart, Yena is flying into a new phase with wings wide open.
