The group ENHYPEN once again left a strong impression with a breathtaking chase that unfolds on the border between identity and desire.

ENHYPEN(Jungwon, Heeseung, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunwoo, Niki)released the music video for “Outside, “ the follow-up song to their 6th mini album “DESIRE : UNLEASH, “ through the HYBE Labels YouTube channel at midnight on the 23rd.The video overwhelms viewers with its dramatic development of another “me” born from desire, or shadow, flowing out into the real world and causing chaos, and the chase to stop it.

The tense chase scenes, where they run between buildings to avoid the main body and raid stores, create an immersive experience that is no less than an action movie.In line with the song’s hip-hop trap sound, the members expressed their “shadow” characters with kitschy and bold hip-hop styling, while their real-life “main body” showed restrained emotions in monotone outfits, creating a stark contrast.

Above all, what catches the eye is the choreography.The performance that contains the message of ‘I will cross the line and run to you ‘is rough and dynamic.The members form a circle around Heeseung and roll on the ground, and they release restrained energy with sharp movements using their fingers and elbows.The rap and vocals also add weight and make the emotional line of the song more distinct.

The’ Outside ‘music video has reignited ENHYPEN’s global success with their sixth mini-album ‘DESIRE : UNLEASH’.The album recorded initial sales of 2.14 million copies immediately after its release, achieving the second-highest figure among K -pop albums of the year, and also rose to third place on Billboard’s main album chart, Billboard 200, proving their presence as a true’ K -pop top-tier group ‘.

The world tour’ ENHYPEN WORLD TOUR ‘WALK THE LINE’ ‘is also underway.On the 21st, they performed with 30,000 fans at the Rajamangala National Stadium, the largest concert hall in Thailand, and in July and August, they will enter a Japanese stadium 4 years and 7 months after their debut, challenging the record for’ shortest period of time for an overseas artist.’
