Background and release

[edit]

On July 30, 2024, JYP Entertainment announced that MiSaMo would release their second EP on October 30.[1] On September 12, the release date was changed to November 6 due to production issues.[2] They also announced a Japanese dome tour in support of the EP.[3] On September 16, a trailer prologue video, "MiSaMo's Atelier", was released on YouTube, revealing the EP's title and theme, centering around "the stylish idea of how haute couture dresses are made by the hands of fashion masters".[4][5]

The EP will be available in six editions: a standard edition, limited deluxe edition, Once Japan limited edition, and solo editions featuring each member.[6] The track list was revealed on September 22, showing that Park Jin-young wrote lyrics for the lead single, "Identity", and MiSaMo wrote lyrics for their own solo tracks.[7] The sub-lead track, a cover of Namie Amuro's "New Look" (2008), was released on October 9 with an accompanying music video directed by Song Min-gyu.[8][9][10] "Identity" was released on October 28 along with a music video, which was filmed on location in Spain at the City of Arts and Sciences and the Old Cathedral of Lleida.[11][12]

Promotion

[edit]

To promote the EP, MiSaMo performed "Identity" and "New Look" on the music television program CDTV Live! Live! on October 28.[13] Their Japanese dome tour in support of the EP was held at Belluna Dome on November 2–3 and Kyocera Dome Osaka on November 16–17,[14] and will conclude at Tokyo Dome on January 15–16, 2025.[15] The second concert in Osaka had live viewings in movie theaters in Japan,[16] and was broadcast live via the streaming service Lemino.[17]
