Kiss of Life Returns as 'Summer Queen' with New Single 'SWEAT'
August 4, 2026
Girl group Kiss of Life, celebrating their 3rd anniversary since debut, has released their third single 'SWEAT', making a bold entry into the summer music scene. The new track, based on Afro House, captures the heat of the season with rhythmic energy, signaling the group's new challenges. Despite being under a mid-sized agency, Kiss of Life has earned the title 'Miracle of Mid-Sized Agencies' by securing music show wins with hits like 'Sticky' and 'The Hoes'.
In a recent interview, the members described themselves as a group pursuing R&B Funk-based music with confidence. They expressed gratitude to fans, the public, and their agency, S2 Entertainment, vowing not to rest on their laurels but to soar higher as they challenge the title of 'Summer Queen'. The single features the title track 'SWEAT' and the upbeat b-side 'Wat!'. 'SWEAT' combines electronic pop with Latin rhythms, evoking images of stylish women dancing on a beach.
The members were deeply involved in the production process. Natty noted that 'SWEAT' offers a more mature side of Kiss of Life compared to 'Sticky'. Julie highlighted themes of sensuality and 'effort', stating that accepting imperfection is a sign of maturity. The members also revealed they have been training hard to show off their toned physiques for the summer comeback.
Additionally, the group shared their joy of receiving their first salary distribution from their agency. Natty, a Thai member, happily recalled booking her flight home with her own money and treating her parents to a meal for the first time. Haewon mentioned she also gave allowance to her family for the first time. Julie added that this milestone motivates them to work even harder.
Kiss of Life plans to continue active promotions domestically and internationally through music shows and concerts. Belle expressed her desire to remain a team that consistently gives energy to the public, while Julie added that seeing opportunities grow for other mid-sized agency artists makes her proud. With messages of inner effort and confidence, Kiss of Life has released a sound that embodies the hot energy of summer.
