DEATH OF ME (2026) - EVAN: Release Date, Tracklist

EVAN has officially launched his solo career with Death of Me, his debut mini album. Released on September 7, 2026 (Monday, 6 PM KST), the 8-track EP is a self-produced statement that blends pop, R&B, alt-rock, UK garage, indie pop and dream pop. BELIFT LAB (HYBE) describes the album as carrying a "confident message of taking hold of the reins of intertwined emotions and moving forward," and the title track doubles down on that resolve. With Death of Me debuting on the Billboard 200 and the follow-up single "Twilight" still in promotion, the former ENHYPEN member's new chapter is off to a historic start.
