WAKER
WAKER heightened anticipation for its new album with intense charisma.

The group WAKER (Kohyeon, Kwon hyeop, Ijun, Leo, Saebyeol, sebum)) revealed at midnight on December 18, via its official SNS, the second group concept photo for its 3rd mini-album “IN ELIXIR : SPELLBOUND”.
In the group photo for the “FREEZE LiKE THAT” version, WAKER appears dressed in entirely black leather outfits, creating a decadent and overwhelming atmosphere. The members draw attention with an intense rock chic mood through styles that highlight their respective individualities, such as leather shirts or sleeveless crop tops.
The 3rd mini-album “IN ELIXIR : SPELLBOUND” is the album with which WAKER will join the January 2026 comeback battle. Previously, WAKER successively unveiled group and individual photos of the first concept version with a street style, “BuRn LiKE THAT”, followed by the second concept version, “FREEZE LiKE THAT”, embodying an all-black sensuality, thereby announcing an even darker concept for this new album.
Attention is now focused on the title and concept that the third version will present. At the same time, interest in this 3rd mini-album by WAKER is also intensifying, as the group, which has rapidly expanded its global fandom through solid skills and diverse musical styles since its debut, prepares to make its comeback.
The 3rd mini-album by WAKER, “IN ELIXIR : SPELLBOUND”, will be released on January 8, 2026 at 12 PM KST on all online music platforms.
