WEi Returns with 8th Mini Album ‘Wonderland’
K-pop boy group WEi is making a comeback on October 29 with their new album Wonderland, marking their first return in about nine months since The Feeling. But this time, they’ll be promoting as a five-member group—Kim Junseo is sitting this one out.
Why Kim Junseo Won’t Join This Comeback
Junseo, who gained attention from the survival show ‘Boys Planet 2’, is currently preparing to debut in a new group ALPHA DRIVE ONE. So while he won’t be part of Wonderland promotions, fans don’t have to say goodbye—just “see you soon.”
A Storybook Theme Straight from the WEi Universe
According to agency OUI Entertainment, WEi’s eighth mini album is a tribute to their fans, known as RUi. While their last release explored the emotional waves of love, Wonderland dives into a dreamy tribute space—part fantasy, part fan love letter. Think of it as Narnia…but with choreo.
Teaser Imagery Loaded with Nostalgia
The teaser image is basically an Easter egg collage for loyal fans—featuring background elements like fire, arrows, hearts, shattered glass, and stars from their past music videos. In puzzle form, these visuals hint that Wonderland will connect threads from their previous works and shape them into something new.
From ‘IDENTITY’ to ‘Love’—Now Entering ‘Wonderland’
Since their debut, WEi has explored themes like youth, growth, and relationships through their IDENTITY and Love series. And they’ve got the musical chops to back it up—members regularly participate in songwriting and production. Each comeback not only shows growth, but also solidifies their image as K-pop’s youthful storytellers.
Why This Comeback Matters
With five members this time around, Wonderland will be a slightly different flavor of WEi—but one fans are already buzzing about. The album is set to drop on October 29 at 6 PM (KST), giving RUi just enough time to prepare their streaming playlists and emotional coping kits.
Here’s hoping Wonderland lives up to its name—magic and all.
