Singer Jinah Kwak is making a comeback armed with a polished rock sound. Kwak will release her third EP, "SAVE ME," on various online music platforms at 6 p.m. on the 15th and kick off her promotional activities in earnest.

Kwak participated in writing and composing all five tracks on the album, adding personal significance. She aspires to prove her expanded musical spectrum by projecting her own honest stories onto the rock genre.

The title track, "MONSTER," is a rock number carrying an explosive message of encouragement, urging listeners to shake off self-hatred and save themselves. The combination of intense band sound, powerful rock vocals, and an overwhelming sing-along section reminiscent of a festival stage is expected to deliver a thrilling sense of liberation to listeners.

The pre-released track "Rain on me" elevates the emotions of a lost breakup within the asymmetry of love into the poignant sound characteristic of rock. Through this new release, Kwak conveys a message of courage: "You are not alone, and we must keep on living."

As she attempts her most dramatic transformation since her debut, attention is focused from both the public and critics alike. All tracks from the third EP, "SAVE ME," and the music video for "MONSTER" will be released simultaneously at 6 p.m. on the 15th.

Meanwhile, starting with the album release and showcase, Kwak is set to continue her active promotions by taking the stage at South Korea's representative music festival this summer, the "2026 Incheon Pentaport Rock Festival with KB Kookmin Card."
