by Helen BoschSep 04, 2023

While the golden colors of autumn bathe the world in a magical play of colors, a magical time is beginning for fans of Kep1er. The girl group has announced their 5th mini album, with which they will definitely enchant us again! It's called “Magic Hour” and will be released on September 25th.

From today you can pre-order the album in our shop!

A feast for the senses awaits you, regardless of whether you choose one of the standard versions or one of the nine platform versions. Kep1er have not only prepared five brand new songs, but also beautiful pictures and exclusive extras for their fans.

You have the choice between three standard versions:

The pink Beloved Version, the blue Moonlighted Version and the orange Sunkissed Version. Each version includes an 84-page photo book that invites you to immerse yourself in the world of Kep1er for a while. Inside you will find a CD, two of 27 possible photo cards and a sticker.

Variety is guaranteed because all content is designed differently depending on the version. Each album also contains another extra that is different in each version! The Beloved version contains one of nine possible photo tickets, the Moonlighted version contains a paper standee and the Sunkissed version contains one of nine message cards. What do you like best?

Don't wait too long!

If you order the album before September 25th, you will also receive a nine-piece photo card set and optionally a poster! The photo card set is our personal highlight because it ensures that we will definitely get a card from our bias.

If you're really lucky, you might even get a Polaroid. Attention: The Polaroids are extremely limited and only included in a few albums. We keep our fingers crossed for you!

But that’s not all!

Alternatively, there are nine digital platform albums.

Each version is dedicated to one of Kep1er's nine members: Yujin, Mashiro, Hikaru, Yeseo, Xiaoting, Chaehyun, Bahiyyih, Youngeun or Dayeon.

As is often the case with digital albums, you can look forward to a whole lot of photo cards! Each version contains, among other things, a mini card with QR code, a Polaroid photo card and an official photo card set, each consisting of 3 cards. The QR Code gives you access to digital content such as the songs, exclusive photos and more. Which member is shown on these cards depends on the version: Buyers of the Yujin version get a Yujin mini card, a Yujin polaroid card and a Yujin photo card set!

In addition, every buyer gets a sticker, a group photo card, two of nine possible selfie photo cards and, if you're really lucky, even a Polaroid. As with the standard versions, the Polaroids are extremely limited and only included in a few albums.

Danger! Unfortunately, we only get the platform versions randomly, so we can only offer them randomly. But if you specify a request in your order, we will do our best to fulfill it! Please note, however, that this is not always possible.

Get one or more versions and bring the magic home!

Is Magic Hour Kep1er's penultimate album?

Magic Hour is probably Kep1er's penultimate Korean album, as the girl group's contract is expected to end in mid-2024.

When Kep1er was founded on the survival show “Girls Planet 999,” Mnet announced early on that it was a project group that would only be active together for two and a half years. Unfortunately, this time is slowly coming to an end.

Since debuting with the mini album “First Impact” in January 2022, Kep1er has released three more Korean albums. “Magic Hour” is the fifth album overall. In between, two Japanese single albums were also released. There were always around four to six months between Korean albums. If this continues, it will be close to releasing more than one album in 2024.

That's why it's even more important to enjoy the time we have left!
