STAYC makes stunning comeback with single album '[S]' & music video for 'BEBE'

K-pop girl group STAYC redefines their musical journey with the release of their fifth single album [S]. This comeback marks a bold transformation from the group’s signature charming energy to a more edgy aesthetic. 

After a five-month break, STAYC returns with a fresh narrative that underscores their dedication to engaging deeply with their fans. Anchored by a unified theme, [S] serves as a bridge to connecting the girl group with diverse audiences, encapsulating the ideals of “Sensual, Sophisticated, Self-esteem”.

The title track, 'BEBE', a funky house number featuring an addictive drop and danceable rhythm, is accompanied by an eye-catching music video. It embodies this new direction by merging striking visuals and bold typography reminiscent of high-fashion editorials. The catchy hook “Don’t wanna be a bebe” delivers a powerful message of defying stereotypes and embracing their true selves, inviting fans to explore the essence of authenticity, transcending images that others impose. 

'DIAMOND' is a contemporary R&B track infused with Afro rhythms, showcasing STAYC’s captivating vocals. The song exudes optimism, encouraging listeners to let go of the fear of what lies ahead and look forward to a future that will shine like a diamond.

'PIPE DOWN' is a pop R&B track featuring catchy brass sounds that highlight a more robust vocal style previously unseen from STAYC. With a witty nod to the idea of a “mute button”, the song reflects the group’s bold attitude and reinforces their commitment to reinventing their musical identity.

Building on the dynamic energy of [S], STAYC is set to bring that momentum to the live stage. Their 2025 world tour, STAY TUNED will make an impressive debut in at Olympic Hall in Olympic Park, Seoul with both concert dates (12 and 13 April) selling out immediately after the general ticket sale opened.
