Ten Announces Stunner, His Most Daring Comeback Yet
NCT and WayV’s Ten is set to make his highly anticipated return with his second EP, Stunner, set to release on March 24.
Known for his genre-blending sound, avant-garde visuals, and mesmerizing stage presence, Ten continues to push artistic boundaries. This time, he promises an even more refined and daring sonic experience.
The K-pop star debuted in 2016 as a member of the South Korean boy band NCT. Since 2019, he has been primarily active in its Chinese sub-unit, WayV, and the supergroup SuperM.
He then made his solo debut in February 2024 with his EP Ten, a six-track project recorded entirely in English.
The EP explored a diverse range of genres, including pop-punk, Latin pop, dance-pop, contemporary R&B, and hip-hop. Led by the single “Nightwalker,” the track reached the number 1 position on the global iTunes album chart. Now, Ten is set to return with his second solo EP, Stunner. His comeback was officially announced on March 3, along with an interactive promotional website that features a countdown to the EP’s release.
The rollout schedule kicked off on March 10 with an introductory film, and will be followed by a second on March 13. Teaser images will be unveiled throughout the month, with releases on March 14, 15, 16, and 19.
A major reveal is set for March 17, which will either be a full music video or a teaser. The buildup continues with a track teaser or highlight medley on March 21, leading up to the final music video teaser on March 23.
In addition to these reveals, fans can engage with an interactive mini-game on the site, accessible via a cat icon. Completing the game allows users to piece together images to recreate the visual from the official EP announcement.
The first released Stunner intro film presents the bold and avant-garde aesthetic Ten is known for.
The cinematography combines slow-motion and rapid cuts with abstract framing, creating a cinematic, dreamlike effect.
Ten appears in a striking black tasseled outfit—reminiscent of modern high fashion—against a stark white backdrop.
His makeup is editorial and dramatic, featuring Euphoria-esque glitter accents above and below his eyes, further enhancing the surreal and high-fashion visual style of the project.
With its striking visuals, immersive promotional schedule, and Ten’s signature genre-defying sound, Stunner is shaping up to be one of his most captivating releases yet.
Listen to Ten’s second EP, Stunner, on March 24.
