After a breakout 2025 marked by soaring chart records, sold-out arena dates and rising global acclaim, P1Harmony is gearing up for its next era.
On February 26, the group confirmed its highly anticipated ninth mini album, UNIQUE, set for release on Thursday, March 12, 2026 — unveiled through a gripping cinematic trailer titled ‘THE HERO IS MISSING.’
The six-and-a-half-minute visual spotlights members Keeho, Theo, Jiung, Intak, Soul and Jongseob as they expand the heroic universe first introduced in their debut sci-fi film, P1H: The Beginning of a New World — a project that drew attention from The New York Times upon its release.
The teaser weaves in previews of two new tracks while unveiling the album’s concept and artwork, signaling a bold chapter of growth, destiny and self-acceptance. It concludes with a detailed rollout calendar, mapping out pre-saves, concept photos and films, teasers, behind-the-scenes content, album samplers and more surprises for devoted fans, P1ece.
Leading UNIQUE is its vibrant Brazilian funk-inspired title track of the same name, a confident anthem that finds P1Harmony fully owning their identity as one unstoppable “Crew.” Staying true to their hands-on artistry, the members actively shaped the project’s songwriting, composition, performance and creative direction, with Jiung, Intak and Jongseob credited as co-writers on the single.
The comeback follows a milestone year powered by two major releases: DUH! — the group’s first album to surpass 400,000 global sales and their third No. 1 on the Billboard U.S. World Albums chart — and their first English-language project EX, which debuted at No. 9 on the Billboard 200 with nearly 40,000 first-week copies sold.
Critics spotlighted several tracks in year-end lists, including “DUH!” (Billboard), “EX” (TIDAL), the B-side “Pretty Boy” (The Hollywood Reporter, Stardust Magazine) and “Dancing Queen” (AV Club). Notably, “Pretty Boy” stood out for its sharp commentary on male toxicity and stereotypes — co-produced by leader Keeho and co-written by Jiung, Intak and Jongseob — further cementing the group’s reputation for substance-driven storytelling.
In another milestone, P1Harmony was named Record Store Day’s K-pop Artist of the Year for 2025, commemorated with an exclusive vinyl release celebrating independent retailers and physical media culture.
On the touring front, the 2025 P1Harmony LIVE TOUR [P1ustage H: MOST WANTED] kicked off in August and spanned Asia, Oceania, Latin America and North America, where the group held its first-ever U.S. arena concerts. The tour will wrap with three “ENCORE” shows in Seoul on March 6, 7 and 8 — a fitting prelude before the arrival of UNIQUE, where P1Harmony aims to prove once again why their name says it all.
