The popular multi-national K-pop girl group UNIS is getting ready to bring a wave of refreshing energy to the music world by launching their official summer promotions in Japan. According to a formal announcement shared by their management agency, F&F Entertainment, on June 18, 2026, the talented 8-member group will officially release their very first Japanese mini-album on July 31, 2026. This upcoming project marks their highly anticipated return to the Japanese music market about seven months after dropping their successful Japanese digital single mwah... in December of last year.

A Refreshing 5-Track Summer Album Packed for Local Fans

According to WikiPickyMedia’s report, the upcoming Japanese album is set to feature a total of five diverse tracks that perfectly showcase the group's bright vocals and energetic performance styles. To create a highly valuable album for their dedicated global fanbase, the tracklist will easily combine brand-new Japanese summer songs alongside their previously released, highly popular Japanese original tracks:

"MoshiMoshi": Their highly praised local track featuring a remarkably catchy melody that initially helped the group build a massive fanbase across Japanese music communities.

"mwah...": Their successful winter digital single release that earned great reviews for its polished production and smooth vocal delivery.

The eight members plan to chase the top spots on major local music charts by treating listeners to a collection of bright, cooling summer songs specifically designed to beat the intense July heat. In celebration of the physical album release, F&F Entertainment has finalized plans to host an extensive lineup of local Japanese promotional events. These will include high-touch events, media interviews, and special live release showcases to create unforgettable memories directly with their local supporters.

A Rapid Rise from Audition Stars to Global Headliners

UNIS which consists of members Jin Hyeon-ju, Nana, Gehlee Dangca, Kotoko, Bang Yun-ha, Elisia, Yoona, and Lim Seo-won originally formed as an 8-member group back in early 2024 through the highly competitive SBS television audition program, Universe Ticket. Right from their initial debut, the multi-national group quickly separated themselves from the competition by showing off incredibly stable live vocals, complex synchronized dance routines, and a natural international charm.

Throughout 2026, the young stars have successfully expanded their global footprint across the entire Asian continent. The group recently wrapped up a highly successful concert tour across the Americas alongside packed fan meetings in Japan. Showing their continuous online power, "Spring Rain," a beautiful track from their second Korean mini-album SWICY (released in April), recently surged back up public charts to land a coveted spot on YouTube Korea's Official Daily Popular Music Video chart.

Furthermore, the group recently proved their massive international drawing power by performing as the main stage headliners for the massive "Otaku Pop Fes 2026 in Manila" music festival in the Philippines. Following the grand conclusion of their upcoming Japanese promotions this August, the members are officially scheduled to return straight to the recording studio to begin production on their next major Korean comeback album, ensuring a non-stop, action-packed year for their fans worldwide.
