A glimpse into “Cute & Anxiety”
The exhibition also introduces the world of Yves’ fifth EP, “Cute & Anxiety,” arriving on November 20, 2026.
The five-track release explores the blurred boundary between cuteness and anxiety, following the feelings and contradictions that exist between them. It considers how affection and energy from the outside meet inner uncertainty as Yves searches for balance.
Ahead of the EP, she will release the double single “Hysteric” and “Adam” on October 27. The songs approach anxiety from different moments: “Hysteric” captures the feeling as it happens, while “Adam” reflects on what remains afterward.
“Cute & Anxiety” follows her April 2026 EP, “NAIL.” According to the announcement, physical pre-orders are open, with editions that include a 34-page photobook.
Another side of Yves’ creative world
First introduced to audiences through LOONA, Yves began her solo chapter with PAIX PER MIL in 2024, releasing “LOOP” and “I Did.” She continued developing her sound through “Soft Error” in 2025 and “NAIL” in 2026.
Her collaborations include “Soap” with PinkPantheress, “NAIL” with Lolo Zouaï and “Break it” with Lexie Liu.
With “A Little of BOTH,” she extends that creative expression into photography. The exhibition gives fans a chance to spend time with the images she chooses to capture—and respond with words of their own.
