Kai of EXO is gearing up for a major comeback to the music scene with the announcement of his fourth mini album, ‘Wait On Me’. Set for release on April 21st, 2025, this new project marks a highly anticipated comeback for the soloist, following a two-year hiatus since his third mini album, ‘Rover’.
KAI’s 4th mini album ‘Wait On Me’
Kai’s fourth mini album, ‘Wait On Me,’ will feature a total of seven tracks, including the title track of the same name. Pre-orders for the album opened today, March 31st, at various online and offline music stores, giving fans a chance to secure their copy ahead of the release date.
The pre-release track “Adult Swim”
In the lead-up to his comeback, Kai has already teased fans with a glimpse of what’s to come. Kai will reveal one of the tracks, ‘Adult Swim,’ before the full album drops. This upbeat pop song is bound to become a fan favorite, with its catchy and energetic drum loop setting the tone for the entire album.
The lyrics of ‘Adult Swim’ draw a fascinating comparison between the emotions of falling deeply in love and the imagery of two people swimming together under the water without fear. The track’s languid yet cheerful atmosphere should provide the perfect blend of romance and energy.
A return to the stage
Kai has been busy since his discharge from the military, keeping fans engaged through live broadcasts, web variety shows, and fashion pictorials. However, his return to music is the highlight of his post-military career, and he’s eager to share his new material with the world.
On April 3rd, Kai will take to the stage on Mnet’s M Countdown to perform “Adult Swim,” giving fans their first live taste of the song. Alongside the track release, Kai will be unveiling teaser content, a dedicated website, and even hosting a special showcase to build up anticipation for his comeback.
Global concert tour: KAION
Following the release of ‘Wait On Me,’ Kai is taking his music on the road with the ‘2025 KAI SOLO CONCERT TOUR ‘KAION’.’ The tour will kick off in Seoul on May 17-18, 2025, before continuing to 10 other Asian cities, including Kuala Lumpur, Macau, Jakarta, Singapore, Taipei, Manila, Bangkok, Yokohama, and Hong Kong. Fans across Asia will have the chance to witness Kai’s world-class performance skills live, making this tour one of the most highly anticipated events of the year.
