K-pop girl group aespa are closing out a standout year with the release of four solo tracks, each written and performed by the members during their ongoing SYNK : aeXIS LINE world tour.

The new material offers a deeper look into the individual artistry of KARINA, GISELLE, WINTER, and NINGNING, spanning genres from pop rock to R'n'B and hip-hop.

WINTER leads with BLUE, a guitar-led alt-pop track. The song explores emotional burnout and resilience.

NINGNING’s Ketchup and Lemonade delivers a mellow R'n'B groove with theatrical flair. The track captures the emotional tug-of-war that follows a breakup, culminating in a powerful final verse that questions what remains when love is stripped away.

GISELLE steps into the spotlight with Tornado, a playful English-language R'n'B tune co-composed with producer Shintaro Yasuda, known for his work with Ariana Grande. The song’s tropical rhythm and flirtatious lyrics build toward a high-energy dance break, tailor-made for the stage.

Last but not least, KARINA rounds out the collection with Good Stuff, a confident hip-hop dance track that leans into her bold persona. With lyrics asserting her individuality and star power, the song follows the success of her 2024 viral hit UP, which reached No.2 on the Korean charts and racked up over 155 million streams on Spotify.
