After waiting nine months, K-Pop girl group, cignature, has made their comeback with 5th EP, Sweetie but Saltie, an album that shares the stories of excitement of falling in love with signfan, cignature’s fan base. JEEWON, SEMI, CHAESOL, BELLE, SELINE, CHLOE, and DOHEE’s latest EP includes four new songs: “I like I like,” which has two versions on the album (English and Korean), and sings about wanting to confirm a person’s feelings of being in love, even when that confirmation is already obvious to others. “Melody,” shares the group’s sentiments as they look back on their past, present, and future as well as their sincere resolutions regarding music. The title track, “풍덩 (Poongdung),” perfectly captures the summer vibes while expressing the honest feelings of someone who is fearlessly trying to fall in love without holding back, and is accompanied by an official music video which mirrors the bright, summery energy of the song.
CHAESOL of cignature shares, “Our new title track, “풍덩 (Poongdung),” represents summer’s young yet maturing love. I instantly liked the melody when I heard it, so I was counting down the days we could share with everyone. Thank you to all the fans who have waited for our comeback for about nine months, and we cannot wait to show a good performance. “Smooth Sailing,” which was released last summer, talked about a girl who is excited for her first love or crush. Our new title track sings the story of a more mature girl falling deeply in love as if she’s diving into love with a splash or poongdung. We hope to showcase a mature, improved version of cignature with this song, so please keep your eyes on our activities!”
SELINE also shared her excitement of their long-awaited comeback stating, “We prepared another summer album just like last year, but the main difference lies in that while Us in the Summer had a feel-good mood, this year’s title track, “풍덩 (Poongdung),” is more refreshing with a sparkling vibe just like a carbonated soda. There were other candidates for the title track, but we gave a lot of thought to finalizing it, which is why I have even more affection for it! Also, we’re releasing Korean and English versions of one song for the first time. Sharing a song that will allow us to connect deeper with global signfans is very meaningful. We also included different lyrics for each version, so I hope you give them a lot of love and enjoy our performance with us. Since signfans have waited for a long time, we hope this album satisfies their expectations. cignature will be in charge of this year’s summer for our fans, so please listen to the new album a lot. We hope you like it!”
