K-pop girl group aespa is set to make a highly-anticipated comeback with their second full-length album, LEMONADE.

The SM Entertainment group first unveiled the project on April 19 via social media, dropping an intro video steeped in their signature futuristic lore, paired with an eye-catching palette of acidic yellows and metallic tones.

On April 21, they also released a chaotic, hyper-stylized schedule poster. Centered on a bright yellow sports car stalled along a highway, the visual is scattered with road signs and billboard graphics that reveal key comeback dates. The poster outlines a rollout of teaser images, a mood sampler, a highlight medley, and a music video teaser leading up to the album’s release.

LEMONADE arrives on May 29, featuring 10 tracks that span multiple genres. It will highlight a more mature identity and deeper storytelling within the group’s narrative-driven universe.

Alongside the album, aespa is also gearing up for a new global run with their 2026-2027 tour, SYNK: COMPLæXITY. The tour is set to have stops in Asia, Latin America, the United States, and Europe. While specific venues remain under wraps, further details are expected to be announced in the coming weeks.

The upcoming LP marks the K-pop act’s first full-length project in about two years, following the success of their 2024 album Armageddon. It is also their first release in eight months since the 2025 EP Rich Man.

Fans can pre-save LEMONADE now ahead of its May 29 release.
