[Dispatch=Reporter Lee Myung-joo] I.O.I gave a preview of sections of their new album.

Swing Entertainment released an audio snippet video of I.O.I's mini third album "I.O.I: LOOP" on their YouTube channel on the 13th.

The video is approximately 2 minutes and 28 seconds long. As this is an album from I.O.I's activities after approximately 9 years, their narrative was captured in projector film frames.

Highlights from all the included tracks followed. The first track was "IOI". The team's characteristically bright mood and fresh energy came through.

The title track "Suddenly" is in the synth-pop genre. With lyrics like "I lay down to sleep and suddenly / Lost in thoughts of you," it drew listeners into memories.

"SPF 100+" is a track with an impressive upbeat groove. "IF I" harmonized linear band sound with intense synthesizer.

The mood shifted in "Us Back Then". It captivated with a warm ballad. "Smile and Goodbye" featured the members' voices from 2016.

"I.O.I: LOOP" is an album that solidly grounded the meaning of the 10th anniversary and musical authenticity, with Jeon So-mi, Chungha, and You Yeon-jung participating in songwriting and composition.

In particular, Jeon So-mi's work on Track 1 and the title track, and You Yeon-jung and Chungha's respective work on "IF I" and "Us Back Then" elevated the completeness further.

The agency said, "We request great anticipation and interest in how the I.O.I synergy that has finally united will unfold through this album."

Meanwhile, I.O.I will release "I.O.I: LOOP" on the 19th at 6 p.m.
