We will work hard, so please watch us beautifully." Chae-na added, "It feels like a re-debut after a year. Since we are coming out with a new concept, we have worked hard to show various sides. Although we are nervous, our excitement is greater."

'BITE DISTRICT' is a new album that captures the process of building relationships and creating their own world while running together through past times, as well as a new journey. It means USPEER's own zone, formed by moments where they lightly touch and playfully tease each other, marking the beginning of their relationship.

The title track 'WICKED GAME' is a track that tells the story of a girl who, along with a rookie Cupid who foolishly used up all her arrows to win the heart of someone she likes, carries out clumsy but lovely strategies. It expresses the dizzying and heart-pounding emotions of the moment when one slowly falls for someone, and the growing attraction that pulls them deeper.

Especially, actor Bae Hyun-seong made a surprise appearance as the protagonist in the music video, drawing the interest of global K-pop fans.

USPEER faced some difficulties right after their debut. They officially announced a six-member lineup after revealing that member Yeo-won would end her group activities and terminate her exclusive contract. Additionally, at the beginning of this year, they announced a fresh start after moving their agency from WM Entertainment to MW Entertainment.

Xian mentioned Yeo-won's absence, saying, "Yeo-won unnie couldn't be with us due to personal reasons. Since she was our first leader, it was initially awkward and difficult, but we decided to work harder during such times. We had many conversations with the members, encouraged each other, and overcame the challenges well. Unnie also supported us by cheering us on."

So-i also smiled, saying, "We even contacted Yeo-won unnie on New Year's Day to say, 'Let's eat together,' and she told us, 'We hope you come back soon.' Recently, we have been so busy preparing for the comeback that we couldn't even contact our parents."

Seo-yu also boasted of the strong trust between USPEER and MW Entertainment Lee Won-min (CEO). He said, "The CEO's words that he believes in our potential and direction and will create a good environment resonated the most. So, as a group, we decided to move to him. As the first artist, the changed treatment is that all staff members work hard for us. We feel their full effort and sincerity."

Seo-yu continued, "The CEO visits us every day to check if we are doing well and even praises us, saying, 'Oh, you look so pretty.' He also provides a lot of support." He expressed his gratitude.

They also shared what kind of evaluation or descriptor they hope to receive from the public through this activity. Chae-na confessed, "At last year's debut showcase, we said we wanted to become the backbone. This time, we will definitely become the backbone of MW."

Xian said, "We want to be known as a 'place of addictive music'," and Seo-yu added, "We want to receive reactions like, 'This is indeed USPEER' or 'It was worth the wait.'"

'BITE DISTRICT' will be released at 6 p.m. on the 17th through various online music platforms.
