STAYC (Sumin, Sieun, ISA, Seeun, Yoon, and J) has made a dramatic comeback with a striking new look and concept.

On the March 20 broadcast of Mnet’s M Countdown, STAYC took the stage to unveil the first-ever music show performance of BEBE, the title track from their fifth single album, S.

Before their performance, the group sat down for an interview with the MCs, where they addressed their nickname, “SpoiC,” given by fans. “It’s a nickname our fans came up with because we always get so excited while preparing for a comeback that we end up dropping spoilers,” they explained. However, they promised that, for this interview, they’d be sharing fun TMI instead of spoilers.

J showcased her deep, captivating voice while revealing that her intro part in BEBE was a favorite among the members. Meanwhile, Sieun and Seeun teamed up with MC Sung Hanbin to give a sneak peek of the BEBE challenge, building excitement for their performance.

Dressed in chic and powerful black outfits, STAYC took the stage with a more mature musical identity and a fresh team dynamic. Stepping beyond their signature Teen Fresh concept, the group fully embraced their bold new visuals and intense stage presence, delivering a performance brimming with confidence.

The BEBE stage was a feast for the senses, featuring an addictive melody and an array of eye-catching performances. Signature choreography moves like the Burnout Dance, where the members dramatically grab their heads, and the Radar Dance, which mimics sending out waves to the audience, added to the song’s irresistible appeal. Their expressive facial acting further amplified the immersion, making for a high-quality, captivating stage.

S marks STAYC’s first comeback in about five months since their digital single …l (Dot Dot Dot), released in October last year. This album encapsulates the group’s evolving direction, signaling a new era for STAYC with a deeper and more refined musical color.

The title track BEBE is the perfect representation of this transformation. The song conveys a desire to break free from the version of oneself that conforms to others’ expectations and instead reveal the true self hidden within. By shedding preconceived notions and stereotypes, STAYC presents their most authentic selves, adding an irresistible allure to their sound and image.

Meanwhile, STAYC will continue promoting their fifth single S through various music shows. They are also set to kick off their 2025 STAYC Tour: STAY TUNED with a Seoul concert on April 12-13 at the Olympic Hall in Olympic Park, where they will reunite with fans.
