Their agency, Jellyfish Entertainment, announced on the 12th via official social media that VERIVERY will release their 8th mini-album, “CONFETTI,” on the 7th of next month, following the release of a teaser video. This marks their first new release in about nine months since their 4th single, “Lost and Found,” in December of last year.
In the released video, VERIVERY transforms into a “mobile cheer squad” that visits people exhausted by their daily lives. The members appear in colorful outfits, accompanied by the slogan, “Do you need some cheering? Call the VERIVERY mobile cheer squad right now!”
They also realistically portrayed moments when people need encouragement. From eating alone during the first week of the new semester to the start of a tough week and even a customer arriving just before a café closes, the video wittily captures the awkward situations we face in daily life. Berry Berry appears as a cheerleading squad that breathes new energy into these people, foreshadowing the bright atmosphere the new album aims to convey.
At the end of the video, the phrase “September 7: CONFETTI’s First Mission!” was revealed. Since the album title “CONFETTI”—which refers to the colored paper thrown during celebrations—is linked to the cheerleading squad concept, there is growing interest in what musical changes VERIVERY will showcase through this album.
Following their comeback, they will expand their activities through performances both domestically and internationally. VERIVERY will hold the “2026 VERIVERY CONCERT ‘GIVE ME FIVE, KEEP THAT VIBE’ SEOUL” at the KBS Arena in Seoul on October 3–4. Following that, starting with Jakarta on October 17, they will meet fans in a total of 11 cities, including Osaka, Tokyo, Warsaw, Amsterdam, Cologne, Berlin, Paris, Macau, and Taipei. Through a series of activities—from the release of their new album to concerts and overseas tours—they plan to fully accelerate their activities as a full group.
This new album is drawing attention as a project that will define how VERIVERY will be repositioned in the public’s mind. Having undergone numerous transformations by experimenting with various concepts since their debut, the group has now placed the message of “encouragement”—which cheerfully relieves the fatigue of everyday life—at the forefront. Since they have emphasized a friendly and bright image right from the start of their comeback, there is keen interest in how much they will be able to expand their reach beyond their existing fanbase to the general public.
