TRI.BE, Universal Korea’s first K-POP idol girl group, reveals their first-ever mini-album “VENI VIDI VICI” via Republic Records. The red-hot global rookie has already inspired worldwide anticipation and delivers five brand new tracks on the project —each spanning unique sounds and genres.
Among many highlights, “WOULD YOU RUN” sees TRI.BE level up and elevate with energy and spice. It proves both eye-catching and ear-catching powered by a brass riff, suspenseful groove, and dynamic rhythm complementary of their signature “out-of-this-world” performances. “LOBO” likens TRI.BE to a pack of wolves unafraid when together, while “-18” explores the wishes and dreams of the under-18 members, HyunBin, SoEun, and MiRe. Elsewhere, SongSun, Kelly, JinHa, and Jia serve up moody and powerful vocals on “GOT YOUR BACK.” Finally, “TRUE” pays homage to their fans as an expression of gratitude and love. Once again, they teamed up with producers S. Tiger and ELLY to seamlessly expand their signature sound.

The first-of-its-kind quadrilingual group, TRI.BE consists of seven members—Songsun, Jinha, Hyunbin, and Soeun hailing from Seoul, Kelly and Jia from Taipei, and Mire from Tokyo—and speaks and sings in English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. Earlier this year, they teamed up with one of the most famous K-POP producers in the world, S.Tiger [BEAST, IU, 4Minute, MOMOLAND, EXID, T-ARA, Apink, HyunA], for the two debut tracks on TRI.BE Da Loca, generating 5 million-plus streams right out of the gate.
TRI.BE’s name comes from the combination of the words “triangle,” which signifies the most perfect shape, and “being,” leading to the slogan, “We are perfect as we are.” The group conveys the message of self-love and confidence by unapologetically flaunting their key concept of “Girl Swag.”
“Girl Swag” goes global in 2021 thanks to TRI.BE.
