Kep1er is making a big return in August with a new album and their first world tour. The group shared exciting details about their upcoming plans, including a fresh concept and performances across Asia. Fans are eagerly waiting to see their new music and stage shows.
The girl group recently revealed their chic new look in a photoshoot. They also talked about their dreams and memories with fans. The tour, called “Into The Orbit: Kep1asia,” will start in Seoul on September 20-21 and visit cities like Fukuoka, Tokyo, and Kyoto.
Kep1er’s New Album and Comeback Plans
Kep1er’s August comeback will be their first release in about nine months. Their last mini-album, “TIPI-TAP,” came out in November 2024. The new album will show their growth and a wider range of music styles.
During an interview, the members shared their excitement. Hikaru said:
“It was my dream to perform with the members in my hometown Fukuoka, and I’m excited to make that dream come true through this tour.”
Xiaoting recalled a sweet memory with fans:
“When I first didn’t know Korean, the fans called me ‘Sojeong unnie,’ and that became an unforgettable memory.”
Choi Yu Jin, the group’s leader, also shared her love for the team:
“Let’s continue creating amazing performances and memories like we are now. Thank you for following me so well. I love you.”
First World Tour Details
Kep1er’s “Into The Orbit: Kep1asia” tour will begin in Seoul and then move to Japan. The confirmed dates so far are:
- Seoul: September 20-21
- Fukuoka: October 3
- Tokyo: October 10-11
- Kyoto: December 12-14
More cities may be added later. The tour’s poster features a space theme with stars and bright colors like brown, khaki, and orange. This matches the idea of exploring new worlds, just like the group’s name, which is inspired by planets.
Earlier this year, Kep1er held their first fan concert tour, “BEYOND THE STAR,” visiting Seoul, Yokohama, Macau, and Taipei. The upcoming tour is expected to be even bigger, showing their progress since debut.
What Fans Can Expect
Kep1er’s new album in August will set the stage for their world tour. The group has been working hard to prepare fresh performances. Their last album, “TIPI-TAP,” was their first as a seven-member group after Mashiro and Yeseo left in July 2024.
Since then, Kep1er has continued to release music, including their first Japanese EP, “AGAINST THE WORLD,” in April 2025. Their Korean studio album “Kep1going On” in June 2024 was also a success, with the title track “Shooting Star” praised by critics.
Fans are excited to see what new music and concepts Kep1er will bring this time. The group has always been known for energetic performances, and this tour will likely highlight their strong stage presence.
