Former LOONA member Yves has once again raised the bar for solo artistry with the release of her 4th EP [NAIL] on April 17, 2026. The title track “NAIL (feat. Lolo Zouaï)” and its official music video dropped at 1 PM KST, instantly captivating fans with its hypnotic production, stunning cinematography, and Yves’ signature atmospheric sound.
The MV blends futuristic and experimental visuals with intimate, cinematic storytelling — featuring bold fashion, striking close-ups (including the now-iconic shorter nails), and scenes that evoke deep emotional and sapphic undertones. Listeners are praising the powerful chorus, hard-hitting beat, and seamless feature from Lolo Zouaï, while subtle nods to Yves’ LOONA-era roots — such as “Odd Eye” references — add layers of nostalgia and lore for long-time Orbits.
Fans describe the track as “peak,” “no-skip,” and a “lesbian gave us another masterpiece,” highlighting its unique mood shifts, raw emotion, and Yves’ unmatched ability to create cohesive, replayable music that feels both fresh and deeply personal. The high-quality choreography, glamorous visuals, and atmospheric production further cement this as one of her strongest releases yet.
This EP continues Yves’ impressive solo run, showcasing her evolution as a complete artist who writes, conceptualizes, and delivers with bold self-expression. It also builds excitement for her upcoming 2026 tours in Europe and the Americas.
With its confident energy and artistic depth, “NAIL” is already being hailed as a standout in 2026 K-pop and a must-listen for anyone craving innovative, boundary-pushing music.
