3 (G)I-DLE Summer Anthems To Get You Excited For I SWAY

Summer may have just started, but (G)I-DLE are already bringing the HEAT! Miyeon, Minnie, Soyeon, Yuqi, and Shuhua are releasing their seventh mini-album, I SWAY, on July 8th, and they’ve been absolutely spoiling us with gorgeous concept photos! We’ve gotten three sets altogether: Wind version, Wave version, and Beat version.

First, the Wind version photos offer a spunky Y2K theme, with the members of (G)I-DLE posing in a convertible. From their hair (Minnie’s curls instantly jumped out to us!) to the effortlessly cool styling, these pictures got us so hyped for this comeback. 

Next, the Wave version photos kind of reminded us of the ‘Queencard’ era, with a more beachy feel! We adore the colorful outfits and fun platform shoes, not to mention the sweet freckled makeup. They’re ready to hit the beach and we’re a liiiiiittle sad we didn’t get an invite!

Finally, we’ve arrived at the Beat version photos! This set embraces the Y2K theme once again with such fun styling, including lots of denim and even some lace and bows. It’s trendy yet timeless, and we know we’ll see some fans recreating these standout looks at (G)I-DLE’s next tour. 

Nevies, are you buzzing as much as we are to listen to I SWAY this July? While we wait to hear (G)I-DLE’s new comeback, let’s recap some of their past hits that you need on your summer playlists! 

‘Queencard’

We couldn’t make this list without including the song that was all over every K-Pop fan’s playlist and FYP last summer! ‘Queencard’ should definitely be your summer anthem if you’re looking to have your self-confidence glow-up this year. Remember, you’re a “star, star, star” no matter what you look like or where you’re going in life. 

“Blue champagne prepared for this party
Celebrating being born, every day…”

‘Never Stop Me’

Need some motivation while getting over a breakup or reaching towards your goals no matter what issues you might face? Then ‘Never Stop Me’ is for you! Its guitar-tinged sound is so energizing and we love how the lyrics acknowledge the pain of heartbreak while refusing to stay stuck in it. Make this the summer you make your dreams come true and don’t let anything stop you!

“Let me put on leather jacket
Mama, don’t ever, ever stop me…”

‘DUMDi DUMDi’

Of course, we have to spotlight the (G)I-DLE summer song! ‘DUMDi DUMDi’ is all about soaking up the sun and making the best summer memories you can. So grab your besties and seize those sunny days! Bonus points if you all get together and learn the iconic choreography.

“Dance until the palm trees shake
In the festival with fireworks, I clear my head
Like crazy music turned up…”
