P1Harmony's agency, FNC Entertainment, has unveiled key details for the boy group's first full-length English album, EX, set to release on September 26 at 1 PM KST.
A plan poster released on August 20 outlines the timeline for the album's promotional rollout, beginning August 25 with the release of the first concept photos and running through a concept photo making film, the full tracklist reveal, an EX sampler, a music video teaser, and a highlight medley.
The album's concept transports the six members, Keeho, Theo, Jiung, Intak, Soul, and Jongseob, into a retro-style gaming club. In the concept photos, the members gather in a vintage club room filled with quirky props, donned in nostalgic outfits that evoke the playful yet mysterious mood of an underground arcade society. This marks a stylistic shift from the group's previous hero-themed narratives, promising a softer and more approachable image.
EX consists of eight tracks that span pop-rock, EDM, and hip-hop influences. The lead single, "Game Over," and the upbeat track "Level Up" highlight the members' vocal strengths and rap prowess. Collaborations with international songwriters lend a fresh global sound, while lyrics center on themes of challenge, connection, and triumph. The first concept film is slated for August 28, followed by a highlight medley on September 24 to build excitement ahead of the release.
P1Harmony's decision to record a fully English album follows the success of their eighth mini album, DUH!, released in May. DUH! achieved over 440,000 first-week sales, a personal record for the group, and earned them their fourth consecutive entry on the Billboard 200, peaking at No. 23 in the United States. This momentum has positioned P1Harmony as one of K-pop's emerging global acts.
In addition to their recording activities, P1Harmony has been touring extensively. They launched their third world tour, 2025 P1Harmony LIVE TOUR [P1ustage H : MOST WANTED], with Seoul concerts on August 9 and 10, then continued with an overseas leg in Sydney on August 23. Following the release of EX, the group will kick off the North American portion of the tour on September 27, further cementing their international presence.
EX will be available on all major streaming platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube Music, immediately upon release. Fans can expect the full set of promotional content to drop in stages, building anticipation for P1Harmony's English-language debut.
