The South Korea-based bunch has opted for a different route of promotion, choosing to drop the music video for their title track a day later, on August 22, rather than sharing it simultaneously on the day of the album’s release.
Check out the announcement note below:
“Hello.
This is BELIFT LAB.
ENHYPEN’s 8th Mini Album, ‘THE SIN : BLISS,’ will be released on Friday, August 21, 2026.
‘THE SIN : BLISS’ continues the story of the lovers from ‘THE SIN : VANISH,’ where they eloped at the expense of breaking the taboo. The album tells the story of the lovers as they come to accept their togetherness itself as a “blessing,” no matter what the end of their looming escape may look like.
You can place your pre-order starting from Monday, July 13, 2026. Detailed information about the album release will be provided in a separate notice on ENHYPEN Weverse.
- Pre-Order Opening Date: 11 am, Monday, July 13, 2026 (KST)
- Release Date: 1 pm, Friday, August 21, 2026 (KST)
We look forward to your enthusiastic interest and support.
Thank you.”
