On April 15, UNIS made a delightful comeback with their playful and charming title track “SWICY,” the lead single from their 2nd mini album. The song showcases a vibrant, fresh sound that highlights the group’s growth and versatility. As of writing, the music video has garnered over 12 million views, reflecting the group’s growing popularity and strong fan support.
Just over a week later, on April 23, UNIS celebrated a major milestone by securing their first music show win on the 552nd episode of Show Champion. This win comes just a year after their official debut in March 2024, marking a significant achievement in their rookie journey.
UNIS FIRST WIN 🏆✨
May this day remind us to be more unified and strong. UNIS did not win this trophy without EverAfters and EverAfters didn’t win this trophy without UNIS.
This day will serve us our checkpoint for reaching the stars with our girls. ✨
