AB6IX builds comeback momentum with pre-release single “So Sweet (0522)” ahead of third full album

AB6IX has officially begun the countdown to its next era with the release of a new pre-release track that captures the group’s signature warmth and fan-focused storytelling.

The K-pop group dropped “So Sweet (0522)” on February 27 at 6 p.m. KST, offering the first glimpse into its upcoming third full-length album SEVEN : CRIMSON HORIZON, scheduled for release on March 16.

A soft acoustic pop track that highlights AB6IX’s emotional side

“So Sweet (0522)” is built around an acoustic pop sound that reflects the excitement of falling in love and the quiet happiness found in everyday moments. The song moves at a gentle pace, emphasizing warm melodies and a calm atmosphere rather than high-intensity production.

The lyrics focus on small but meaningful memories shared between two people, a theme that mirrors AB6IX’s long-standing connection with its fandom.

Members Lee Daehwi and Park Woojin participated in writing the lyrics, adding a personal layer that is expected to resonate strongly with fans who have followed the group’s journey.
