PURPLE KISS 7th Mini Album [HEADWAY] Released
- “I only look forward. And I'm never looking back!”
- Six witches running towards their own path, 'HEADWAY' by PURPLE KISS
The 4th generation girl group 'PURPLE KISS', who captivated a global fandom through various overseas performances, will release their 7th mini album [HEADWAY] on October 22, 2024 with a more mature witch concept.
[HEADWAY] means moving forward, and is an album that contains the message of choosing your own direction at the various crossroads you encounter in life. Through PURPLE KISS's appearance of breaking away from the fixed standards of society and pioneering a life based on their own individuality and beliefs, you can get a glimpse of their distinct identity and direction as a girl group that has been around for four years.
The title song 'ON MY BIKE' is a hip-hop dance song based on a strong guitar sound, and it contains the determination of us who stand at numerous crossroads, to go our own way between yesterday's regrets and tomorrow's expectations. It reveals PURPLE KISS's confidence and independent life direction through the image of breaking free from the shackles of gaze, trusting in our subjectivity, and running forward without looking back.
Also, PURPLE KISS showed a more mature and deeper worldview of witches through the MV teaser and the main video. The video tells the story of six witches who go against typical standards and customs and move forward while expressing their desires without reservation. At first glance, it may seem a bit questionable and rough, but it shows a free and confident appearance, and poses a question to the viewers about who is the one with the narrow-minded view.
In addition to this, the album includes a total of 5 tracks, from 'Intro: Concrete Jungle' which increases the immersion into the world of PURPLE KISS and establishes a strong self even in a harsh environment, 'Sweet Nightmare' which is Na Go-eun's self-composed song about wanting to wander in it forever even if it is a sweet nightmare, 'Encore' which talks about continuing our own party before the night ends, and 'Light the way' which honestly and delicately expresses PURPLE KISS's feelings towards Flory, the eternal light.
ON MY BIKE, Endless Night
Pick just one and ride or die!
[Track List]
01. Intro : Concrete Jungle
Lyrics by Kang Ji-won
Composed by Kang Ji-won
Arranged by Kang Ji-won
The ticking of the clock rings in my head. I just run, run, run.
I run away without stopping, leaving behind the noisy Industrial noise, but the only thing that keeps on welcoming me is the tall concrete. What on earth am I being chased by, and what am I chasing? The heavy kicking sound I hear from afar is gradually squeezing me.
There is nowhere to hide or run anymore.
Here is...
02. ON MY BIKE
Lyrics by Maria Marcus, Christian Fast, Suan, Yoon (153/Joombas), Dr.JO
Composed by Maria Marcus, Tobias Näslund, Christian Fast
Arranged by Tobias Näslund
We, imperfect beings, stand at countless crossroads.
Between yesterday's regrets and tomorrow's expectations, we want to go our own way.
As the wheels brush the asphalt, the scent of freedom becomes stronger,
The rough, resonating guitar riffs and heavy bass become one with the vibrations of the road, making your heart beat.
Wild beats hit your ears, and you gain speed without hesitation on the fast-paced track.
No one can define me ON MY BIKE.
03. Sweet Nightmare
Lyrics by Na Go-eun, Coco Tofu Daddy (RBW)
Composed by Na Go-eun, Coco Tofu Dad (RBW)
Arranged by Coco Tofu Dad (RBW)
On a dark night, at the edge of a dream, I feel a strange longing.
Fragments of memories and forgotten emotions come alive and breathe, gradually leading me into a dream.
The dreamy guitar riffs sound like the sweet whispers of the devil, and the repetitive drum sounds get me going.
When I open my eyes, I completely immerse myself in everything that will disappear. I love this moment as if I have regained lost time.
Even if in the end this all remains a sweet nightmare.
04. Encore
Lyrics by Kang Ji-won, Yuki
Composed by Kang Ji-won, Yeow, Na Go-eun
Arranged by Kang Ji-won
An invitation to a never-ending party unfolds over a groovy track.
From the 808 bass that centers on dark pop to the music box sound that arouses curiosity, this ecstatic party is filled with the unique color of PURPLE KISS. The top line with a wide range of changes in low and high tones is added to create an even darker and more unique feeling.
“Our party isn’t over yet. Sing more, Encore!”
05. Light the way
Lyrics by Suan, Yuki, cArgo, Davve(RBW), Jeong Hong-rim
Composed by Davve(RBW), cArgo
Arranged by Davve(RBW), Yoon Young-jun, Lee Joo-yong, WU, Kang Hyeon(ONEWE)
'Light the way', a medium tempo pop number with a lyrical melody, is a fan song that contains feelings for PURPLE KISS's Flory. It depicts the scene seen from the stage in brightly shining lights, and contains the meaning of the man as a precious being who will continue to light each other's path in the future.
In particular, member Su-an directly participated in writing the lyrics and expressed her special affection with delicate lyrics, and Yuki participated in making the rap and poured her true feelings into it.

퍼플키스(PURPLE KISS) 7th Mini Album [HEADWAY] 발매
- “난 앞만 보고서 vroom. And I'm never looking back!”
- 자신만의 길을 향해 달려가는 여섯 마녀, 퍼플키스(PURPLE KISS)의 'HEADWAY'
다양한 해외 공연을 통해 글로벌 팬덤을 사로잡은 4세대 걸그룹 '퍼플키스(PURPLE KISS)'가 더욱 성숙해진 마녀 콘셉트로 2024년 10월 22일 미니 7집 앨범 [HEADWAY]를 발매한다.
[HEADWAY]는 전진이라는 뜻으로, 인생을 살아가며 마주하는 다양한 갈림길에서도 본인만의 방향을 선택하라는 메시지를 담은 앨범이다. 고착화된 사회의 기준에서 벗어나 본인의 개성과 신념을 기반으로 삶을 개척하는 퍼플키스(PURPLE KISS)의 모습을 통해 어느덧 4년 차 걸그룹이 된 그들의 뚜렷한 정체성과 방향성을 엿볼 수 있다.
타이틀 곡 'ON MY BIKE'는 강렬한 기타 사운드를 베이스로 한 힙합 댄스 곡으로, 수많은 갈림길 위에 서 있는 우리가 어제의 후회와 내일의 기대 사이에서도 우리만의 길을 가자는 각오를 담아냈다. 시선의 속박에서 벗어나 주관을 믿고 앞만 보고 달리는 모습을 통해 퍼플키스(PURPLE KISS)의 자신감과 주체적인 삶의 지향점을 드러냈다.
또한 퍼플키스(PURPLE KISS)는 MV 티저와 본편을 통해 한층 성숙해진 모습으로 더욱 짙어진 마녀 세계관을 선보였다. 전형적인 기준과 관습에 대항하고 각자의 욕망을 가감 없이 드러내며 앞으로 나아가는 여섯 마녀의 이야기를 영상으로 풀어냈다. 얼핏 보면 다소 의문스럽고 거칠어 보이지만 자유롭고 당당한 모습을 보여주며, 영상을 보는 이에게 편협된 시선을 가진 사람은 누구인지 물음표를 던진다.
이 외에도 퍼플키스(PURPLE KISS)의 세계관에 몰입도를 높여주며 거친 환경 속에서도 단단한 자아를 정립하겠다는 'Intro : Concrete Jungle'부터, 달콤한 악몽이라 해도 영원히 그 속에서 헤매고 싶다는 나고은의 자작곡 'Sweet Nightmare'와 밤이 끝나기 전 우리만의 파티를 계속하자는 'Encore', 퍼플키스(PURPLE KISS)의 영원한 불빛인 플로리를 향한 마음을 진솔하고 섬세하게 담아낸 'Light the way'까지 총 5곡이 수록되었다.
ON MY BIKE, 끝이 없는 밤
하나만 골라 ride or die!
[Track List]
01. Intro : Concrete Jungle
Lyrics by 강지원
Composed by 강지원
Arranged by 강지원
시계 소리가 머릿속을 울린다. 그저 달리고, 달리고 또 달린다.
시끄러운 Industrial 소리를 뒤로한 채 하염없이 도망치지만, 눈앞엔 높이 솟은 콘크리트만이 계속해서 나를 반긴다. 도대체 나는 무엇에 쫓기고, 무엇을 쫓고 있었는가. 멀리서 들려오는 묵직한 킥 소리가 나를 점점 옥죄어 온다.
더 이상 숨을 곳도 도망칠 곳도 없다.
여기는. . .
02. ON MY BIKE
Lyrics by Maria Marcus, Christian Fast, 수안, 윤(153/Joombas), Dr.JO
Composed by Maria Marcus, Tobias Näslund, Christian Fast
Arranged by Tobias Näslund
수많은 갈림길 위 불완전한 우리가 서 있다.
어제의 후회와 내일의 기대 사이에서도 우리는 우리만의 길로 가고자 한다.
바퀴가 아스팔트를 스칠 때면 자유의 향기는 더 짙어지고,
거칠게 울려 퍼지는 기타 리프와 묵직한 베이스가 도로의 진동과 하나가 되어 심장을 울린다.
와일드한 비트가 귓가를 때리고, 빠르게 질주하는 트랙 위 거침없이 속도를 더 올린다.
No one can define me ON MY BIKE.
03. Sweet Nightmare
Lyrics by 나고은, 코코두부아빠(RBW)
Composed by 나고은, 코코두부아빠(RBW)
Arranged by 코코두부아빠(RBW)
어둠이 내린 밤, 꿈의 경계에서 낯선 그리움을 느낀다.
기억의 파편들과 잊힌 감정들이 살아 숨 쉬며, 점점 꿈속으로 이끈다.
몽환적인 기타 리프는 마치 달콤한 악마의 속삭임처럼 들리고, 반복되는 드럼 소리는 나를 한껏 들뜨게 만든다.
눈을 뜨면 사라질 모든 것에 나를 온전히 담아낸다. 마치 잃어버린 시간을 되찾은 것처럼 이 순간을 사랑한다.
결국 이 모든 것이 달콤한 악몽으로 남는다 해도.
04. Encore
Lyrics by 강지원, 유키
Composed by 강지원, Yeow, 나고은
Arranged by 강지원
그루비한 트랙 위에 끝나지 않는 파티의 초대장이 펼쳐져 있다.
Dark pop을 중심을 잡는 808 베이스에 궁금증을 자아내는 뮤직박스 사운드까지 이 황홀한 파티에는 퍼플키스(PURPLE KISS) 만의 색이 진하게 묻어난다. 저음과 고음의 변화폭이 큰 탑라인까지 얹어져 더욱 다크하고 유니크한 느낌을 자아낸다
“우리의 파티는 아직 끝나지 않았어. Sing more, Encore!“
05. Light the way
Lyrics by 수안, 유키, cArgo, Davve(RBW), 정홍림
Composed by Davve(RBW), cArgo
Arranged by Davve(RBW), 윤영준, 이주용, WU, 강현(ONEWE)
서정적인 멜로디가 돋보이는 미디엄 템포 Pop 넘버 'Light the way'는 퍼플키스(PURPLE KISS)의 플로리를 향한 마음을 담은 팬송이다. 무대에서 바라본 모습을 환히 빛나는 불빛에 묘사하며, 앞으로도 서로의 길을 비춰 주는 소중한 존재로 남자는 의미를 담고 있다.
특히 멤버 수안은 작사에 직접 참여하여 특별한 애정을 섬세한 가사로 표현하였으며, 유키는 랩 메이킹에 참여하며 자신의 진솔한 마음을 고스란히 녹여냈다.

PURPLE KISS - [HEADWAY] 7th Mini Album
When I received my album I was confused because the whole time it said it was in California. So I was unable to track it the whole time. I preorder the album so a got a POB which was a poster. Sadly it came a little damaged. But other than that I am happy with my purchase and everything I got in it
The albums I ordered were shipped promptly, and arrived quickly. They were packaged extremely well so there was no damage. I would order from them again
