UNIS Blends Sweet & Spicy with the Group's Latest Single
K-pop’s rising stars UNIS are back with their second mini-album SWICY—and the group’s title track is a potent dose of energetic retro-pop music!
Dropped on April 15, this eight-member crew—Hyeonju, Nana, Gehlee, Kotoko, Yunha, Elisia, Yoona, and Seowon—is dishing out a playful, punchy vibe that’s got Everafters (that’s their fandom, FYI) hyped.
From the jump, “SWICY” is a bright pop production with a quirky arcade beat and a chorus that hooks you instantly. The lyrics lean into food metaphors—think “gochujang cookie” and “sweet & spicy”—to capture the group’s youthful, fun energy. It’s got that Gen Z sass, singing about crushes and heartbreak with lines like “sareureureu swicy, sweet and spicy” that just roll off the tongue. Plus, the track is produced by VENDORS (yep, the EXO and NCT hitmakers), so it’s polished but manages to keep UNIS’ youthful charm.
The MV is a colorful series of visuals, with the girls rocking preppy school fits and cooking up chaos in a candy-colored lab. While it goes a different direction from their hit debut single “SUPERWOMAN,” the track is still a flex of UNIS’ growth since their Universe Ticket debut in 2024.
Overall, “SWICY” has earned the right to be considered a fun, flirty bop that sticks the landing. Stream it on Spotify, where UNIS is racking up streams, and join the Everafters in this vivid new era of a rising girl group.
