XLOV, K-POP's first genderless and gender-free idol group, showcased their diverse charms through a bnt pictorial. In this shoot, XLOV pulled off a wide range of concepts, from a pure and refreshing mood to a playful atmosphere.

Recently, XLOV successfully wrapped up promotions for their second mini album, 'I, God.' This album marks the fourth chapter of the narrative they have built since debut, portraying the story of XLOV—who were once incomplete beings—reborn as completed gods. Leader and producer Umuti explained that the album carries a message of empathy for the struggles and pain many people face.

Notably, this album features the group's first-ever unit track since debut, receiving enthusiastic praise from fans. Regarding the unit track 'Extancy' with Umuti, Rui shared, "Our tastes and styles are similar, so we were able to align on details quickly," and added, "Umuti and I even resemble each other in our dance lines, so the 'Extancy' performance is the most memorable for me." Haru, who presented the hip-hop unit track 'HIPS' with Hyun, expressed joy at being able to show fans the kind of hip-hop performances they had been doing since before debut.

Hyun, who has been active in YouTube content and variety shows, revealed an ambition to test his abilities on brain survival programs such as 'The Genius,' 'Crime Scene,' and 'Blood Game.' Rui, who majored in dance, demonstrated a passion for the stage by repeating monitoring and practice until personally satisfied.

Finally, Umuti stated, "I want to continue showing the music and style we desire without holding back," expressing a desire to grow together with their fandom 'EVOL' by accumulating shared experiences over time.

Meanwhile, having completed their European tour, XLOV will hold their '2026 Asia Tour' Seoul concerts on July 18 and 19 at Blue Square WON Banking Hall, continuing their meetings with fans.
