Girl group LIGHTSUM (라잇썸) has teased their unexpected charm.

LIGHTSUM (Sang-a, Chowo, Nayoung, Hina, Juhyun, Yujung) posted a teaser video for the same-named content on the YouTube channel "Again, LIGHTSUM" on the 15th.

In the "Again, LIGHTSUM" video, LIGHTSUM revealed a relaxed dinner scene, contrasting with their glamorous stage presence. Members who attended the dinner in "kawaii" (カワイイ·cute) outfits carefully selected menu items and raised the excitement with their own toast, "Radae (LIGHTSUM, let's hit it big)," piquing curiosity about the main episode. Following this, they previewed LIGHTSUM's candid stories with Nayoung's unfiltered demeanor and the caption, "The real kawaii behind the stage is coming."

"Again, LIGHTSUM," set to premiere on the 20th, is a candid talk show featuring LIGHTSUM reborn as "kawaii idols." The program plans to showcase new sides of the members that they have not yet been able to share with fans every Tuesday.

LIGHTSUM, who officially debuted in Japan last month with the release of their Japanese mini-album "Re:idol," carried out various activities with the title track "Doshite" (どうして). They held album release commemorative events across Japan, including at the large-scale music festival "SBI Music Circus Hokkaido 2026" in Hokkaido. Additionally, they connect with fans every Monday evening through "LIGHTSUM's Re:Radio" on FM Osaka.

"Doshite" (どうして), which captures the feelings of unrequited love through candid and cute lyrics, garnered intense attention after its release by ranking 6th in YouTube Music Japan's daily Shorts popular songs chart and 3rd in the daily chart, as well as entering LINE Music's real-time new song chart, daily new song chart, and weekly new song chart. The "Re:idol" album demonstrated a sharp upward trend, reaching 4th place on Oricon's daily album ranking and 21st place on the weekly album ranking within three weeks of its release.
