PENIEL is preparing to make your summer playlist vibrate!
It’s getting closer little by little for MELODY! PENIEL, the charismatic rapper of the group BTOB, is preparing to rock the musical scene with his brand-new solo project under the colors of BTOB Company.
The suspense crossed a new milestone after the publication of a new and mysterious teaser in Short format on the agency’s official channel. In this pink-tinted retro video, we discover a vintage public telephone on which a key date is displayed, May 22. After a series of pressing tones, the receiver drops, letting an uncertain voice resonate asking “Are you okay?”, followed by the first captivating notes of the track. A visual and acoustic appetizer that immediately installs a melancholy and captivating atmosphere.
Carried by the enigmatic phrase “Somehow unsure about us”, this single titled “IDKI”, an acronym for “I Don’t Know If” as the end of the teaser reveals, seems to explore the complexity of feelings and romantic doubt.
Known for his versatility, his unique flow, and his involvement in writing, PENIEL is preparing once again to reveal a more intimate and deep facet of his artistic universe.
This project also marks an important step, confirming the active dynamic of BTOB Company to support its artists in their solo ambitions, while keeping the essence and the indissoluble bond that unites the members of BTOB to their public.
Do not miss the event release of “IDKI” by PENIEL, available this May 22, 2026, at 6 PM KST on all streaming platforms.
