Kep1er, who reorganized the team into a 7-member group and began full-fledged activities, released their 6th mini album TIPI-TAP and the title song of the same name, 'TIPI-TAP', 6 months after the regular album released in June. With its release, it announced a new leap forward.


Kep1er is the debut group of the Mnet survival program [Girls Planet 999: Girls' Battle] and a talented girl group made up of multinational members from Korea, China, and Japan. They were the first project girl group to renew their contract and extend their activity period. Kep1er reached the top of music broadcasts just 12 days after debut with her debut song 'WA DA DA', setting the record for the shortest period of time for a debut song by a K-pop girl group to reach number one on a terrestrial network at the time. Through steady music activities both domestically and internationally, including receiving three consecutive gold album certifications from the Record Association, Kep1er is attracting attention for its unique energetic performance along with the charm of each member.


Kep1er, which has been recognized as a talented group with vocal, dancing, and rap skills through various albums and activities released since its debut, is expected to show the group's infinite growth by showing an even wider musical spectrum through the release of its sixth mini-album. Attention is being paid to this.

Kep1er, who attracted the attention of K-POP fans around the world by unveiling the song 'sync-love' from this album for the first time at 'KCON GERMANY 2024' held last September, especially released the trailer film 'New' for this album. Through 'Connection', the team was reorganized into a 7-member group and presented various aspects to announce new beginnings and changes.


'TIPI-TAP' is a word that represents origami and the sound of footsteps from north to south, east to west, and is a symbol that helps in the process of exploration to find love. To Kep1er, love means the existence of 'members' and 'Kep1ians', and the process of adventure in search of its meaning was expressed as a process of finding love through exploration of active will.


The title song 'TIPI-TAP' is a song that combines fast-paced DnB rhythm with hyper-pop vocals. It progresses brightly and elegantly with a lively melody and soft synth sound, and the hook becomes even more unique with a unique attempt to hybridize South Africa's Gqom rhythm. It produced an addictive refrain. It is a song that shows Kep1er's bold and unique energy of running anywhere to find love.


Kep1er's sixth mini album begins with 'sync-love', a hyperpop-based dance song that combines catchy and sensuous rap with a mysterious melody, and 'Drip', an R&B pop song that brings endless ecstasy to an unknown partner. ', 'Bitter Taste', a hip-hop-based R&B song with a repetitive drum loop and groovy vocals, and 'Heart Surf', an R&B pop dance song that combines warm synth sounds and rhythmic beats. It will show Kep1er's broadened musical spectrum.
