Yaeji and Balming Tiger release ‘Wo Ai Ni’ and ‘Break It Even’
Yaeji is making waves with new collaborative efforts as the artist joins forces with alternative K-pop group Balming Tiger to release a double-single titled “Wo Ai Ni” and “Break It Even.” The release of these tracks comes after a year of high productivity for Yaeji. In the music video for “Wo Ai Ni,” fan-submitted footage is featured, solicited by the group in September. Additionally, the new singles were performed by the artists at the Busan International Rock Festival.
These tracks are part of a series of one-off singles that Yaeji has been releasing throughout 2025. Among these is “Booboo2,” released in September, which is a revamped version of the previous year’s “Booboo,” now featuring Underscores and Aliyah’s Interlude. Yaeji also made appearances at various festivals over the summer and headlined a tour across Asia. A press release hints at an upcoming shift in Yaeji’s musical direction, marking the end of the With A Hammer era. However, no official announcement has been made regarding a new album. If a new album is in the works, it would be the first one in a couple of years, following the release of “With A Hammer” in 2023.
The collaboration between Yaeji and Balming Tiger has sparked excitement among fans, as the artists continue to explore new creative horizons together. While details about a new album remain uncertain, the release of the double-single signifies a fresh chapter in Yaeji’s career. Listeners are encouraged to tune in to these latest tracks and keep an eye out for any updates on Balming Tiger’s upcoming tour dates.
Speaking of tour dates, Balming Tiger is set to perform at two major events in Japan at the end of November. The group will take the stage on the 26th in Osaka at Yogibo META VALLEY for the World Expo ’25 Osaka and on the 27th in Tokyo at Spotify O-EAST for the World Expo ’25 Tokyo. Japanese fans and music enthusiasts alike can look forward to witnessing the electrifying live performances by Balming Tiger at these upcoming events.
