NouerA Sets July 27 Comeback With Fourth Mini Album '.exe' After Douyin Chart Win
NouerA will release its fourth mini album '.exe' on July 27, about four months after 'POP IT LIKE.' The group is building momentum after topping Douyin's challenge chart and continuing its first world tour, 'CATCH THE WAVE.'
The group NouerA will release their fourth mini album '.exe' on the 27th. This marks their new release approximately four months after their third mini album 'POP IT LIKE' in March.
Error message teaser released on the 6th
On the 6th, agency Noua Entertainment released a moving teaser poster via official SNS channels, hinting at the new album concept. In the video, system error messages such as 'Executable file is not ready' and 'Please run again in a moment' appear during a computer booting process. This was followed by a notification window announcing the new album release date, opening the comeback countdown.
NouerA previously showcased retro logo motions where analog and digital sensibilities coexist. This time, they have foreshadowed a new worldview by connecting the album title '.exe', which evokes an executable file in a digital environment, with the error message production.
Recording #1 on Douyin challenge charts
Records continued during the promotions for their previous work 'POP IT LIKE'. During their last promotional period, NouerA broke their own record for highest first-week sales. The title track reached #1 on the Chinese short-form platform Douyin challenge chart, #2 on the entertainment chart, and #26 on the main chart. For the first time since their debut, the music video also surpassed 10 million views.
NouerA is a 7-member boy group formed through the KBS 2TV audition program 'MAKE MATE 1' in February 2025. After debuting with the EP album 'New is Now' last year, they have released tracks such as 'Jet Stream', 'Infinity', and 'Myself'.
Concurrent first world tour 'CATCH THE WAVE'
NouerA is also conducting their first world tour 'CATCH THE WAVE'. They have successfully completed their European performances and are meeting overseas fans while carrying out Asia and North America tour schedules.
Starting with the moving teaser poster, Noua Entertainment plans to sequentially release teaser content related to '.exe'.
