Enhypen ‘unleashes' dark side with 6th EP
Enhypen is set to roll out its sixth EP 'Desire: Unleash' on Thursday and shared its thoughts on the album through a statement released via agency Belift Lab. ''Desire' is the key word for all tracks on the album,' said Heeseung. "How each song is different in color will be attractive and interesting.' The eight-track set is fronted by 'Bad Desire (With or Without You),' which, according to Jake, 'only Enhypen can pull off.' 'The EP will serve as a significant momentum,' mused Jay, underlining how much effort they put into perfecting it, all the more to keep up the energy it gained from a successful debut at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in April. The new mini album received over 2 million in preorders, raising expectations for it to become the band's third album to sell over 2 million, after its fifth EP 'Orange Blood' and second LP 'Romance: Untold.'

Seoul's former military bunker turns into Enhypen pop-up space
An underground military bunker in Yeouido, home to South Korea's finance and investment banking business in Yeondeungpo-gu, western Seoul, is set to be used as a pop-up for K-pop group Enhypen, the city said Wednesday. The bunker — which is near the Yeouido bus transfer center and was used for security purposes for the president in the late 1970s — was previously opened to the public for educational purposes for the school students in mid 2010s. It was turned into an art exhibition space in 2017, but the Seoul Metropolitan Government said it had renovated the space for the upcoming pop-up event 'Maison Enhypen,' which begins Thursday. The city government said programs ranging from a stamp tour and special photo booth to a music room playing Enhypen-curated playlists will be offered there, adding that the underground bunker's unique characteristics will allow many people to immerse themselves into the artist's musical world. Reservations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis at the event venue. The on-site reservation will be opened 30 minutes before the opening time, which varies depending on the day of the week. The pop-up is open from 2 p.m. and 11 a.m. on Thursday and Friday, respectively. While 'Maison Enhypen' begins at 10 a.m. on Saturday, the event will start from 11 a.m. from Sunday until June 14, when the event ends.

Seoul Mediacity Biennale to embrace the mystical in media art
The 13th Seoul Mediacity Biennale, scheduled to kick off on Aug. 26, will bring together 49 artists and collectives under the theme of 'Seance: Technology of Spirit." The term 'seance,' derived from French, refers to an attempt to communicate with spirits. The 13th edition of the biennale, running through Nov. 23 at the Seoul Museum of Art, or SeMA, will be led by Anton Vidokle, artist and founder of e-flux; Hallie Ayres, art historian and curator; and Lukas Brasiskis, curator of video and film at e-flux. The biennale will explore the influence of mystical and spiritual experience on the development of modern and contemporary art. 'It's very significant that many artists have in recent years gravitated towards ways of understanding the world that might offer an alternative to the prevailing systems, which seem at present to be in crisis,' said the curators. Starting with the artistic practice of British artist Georgiana Houghton (1814-1884), who achieved her first mediumistic drawings after attending her first seance in 1859, the exhibition will encompass the influence of shamanism on video art founder Paik Nam-june and German Fluxus artist Joseph Beuys, as well as transcendental experiences depicted in the early experimental films of American artists Maya Deren and Jordan Belson. The biennale will also feature works by contemporary artists engaged with the diverse traditions and themes of the occult, enchantment and magic. The Seoul Mediacity Biennale, launched in 2000 by the Seoul Metropolitan Government, has earned international recognition for its experimental engagement with contemporaneous changes within the media landscape of the city, redefining what media is and can be.
