According to his agency, Blitzway Music, on the 25th, Do Kyung-soo will release his fourth mini-album, “DOPAMINE,” on the 8th of next month.
“DOPAMINE” marks Do Kyung-soo’s first new release in a year, following his digital single “DUMB” in September of last year.
Do Kyung-soo officially announced his comeback at midnight today by posting a teaser image for the new album featuring ice as a central motif on his official social media channels.
Details on the album’s tracklist will be revealed at a later date. The album will also be released as physical editions in two versions, “FIZZ” and “POP,” and all tracks will be available on various online music platforms at 6:00 p.m. on the same day.
Do Kyung-soo debuted as a member of EXO in 2012 and released his first solo mini-album, *Empathy*, in 2021. This past spring, he demonstrated his strong music appeal by successfully re-entering the music charts with “Popcorn,” a track from his third mini-album *Growth*, released in 2024.
Do Kyung-soo will embark on his new concert tour, “DAY OFF,” starting this October.
