The group recently ran a fan-participation event on its official promotional website. Fans joined as “secret agents,” played mini-games to collect “Star Shards,” and unlocked rewards once a target score was reached.
The mission began at noon on March 28 and moved quickly with strong fan participation. The target score was reached at about 5:30 p.m. on April 1, prompting the reveal of “Heung Heung Heung (feat. SOLE),” a pre-release track from the group’s fourth mini-album, “Caligo Pt.2.”
The video drew attention for its bright, lovable tone, distinct from previously released concepts, while incorporating PLAVE’s signature storyline. Fans responded strongly after the reveal. The track will be officially released at 6 p.m. on April 3 on major music platforms.
The event also highlighted fans’ direct role in producing the outcome, strengthening ties between PLAVE’s narrative universe and its fandom.
PLAVE has been building expectations by rolling out concept photos. With the pre-release now out, attention is turning to additional content as the comeback countdown begins in earnest.
A pop-up store will also mark the album release. From April 8 to 19, PLAVE will hold “PLAVE 4th Mini Album ‘Caligo Pt.2’ Pop-up Store in The Hyundai Seoul” at Sounds Forest in The Hyundai Seoul in Seoul, featuring album-themed displays and various content.
PLAVE previously underscored its digital strength with the release of its second single album, “PLBBUU,” in November. The group also sold out its Nov. 21-22 shows at Seoul’s Gocheok Sky Dome for the “2025 PLAVE Asia Tour ‘Dash: Quantum Leap Encore,’” wrapping up its first Asia tour.
PLAVE’s new mini-album, “Caligo Pt.2,” will be released on April 13 on major music platforms.
