FIFTY FIFTY Return June 1 With 4th Mini Album 'Imperfect-I'mperfect' Led by 'Like a Bubble'

K-pop group FIFTY FIFTY made their comeback, releasing their fourth mini album Imperfect-I'mperfect. The release marks the group’s first new music in approximately seven months since November 2023 and signals a fresh creative direction for the four-member act.

The album arrives through their agency Attrakt with a central theme that flips the script on perfectionism: “Even a messy day can be cool in itself.” This message of self-acceptance comes after a lengthy hiatus, with the members describing intense preparation and experimentation in the recording studio to explore genres they had not attempted before. The title itself carries the dual meaning “Even if I am imperfect, I am perfect,” emphasizing that imperfection holds its own unique value.

For fans and followers, this comeback represents both a stylistic expansion and a promise of increased global engagement. Spanning six songs across different genres and moods, the album aims to show that FIFTY FIFTY can handle diverse concepts while retaining their signature sensibility.

“이전의 앨범보다 더 다양한 모습을 보여드릴 수 있을 것 같아 준비하면서도 기대가 많이 됐어요. 전에는 보컬적인 매력을 많이 보여드렸다면 이번에는 퍼포먼스, 랩까지 더 다양한 매력을 담아내려고 노력했습니다.” — Athena (FIFTY FIFTY member)
