Girl group Weeekly will return with its sixth EP on July 9.

Weeekly’s sixth EP comes eight months after the release of its fifth EP, “ColoRise,” released last November.

“Weeekly will tackle the summer heat wave with the group’s refreshing energy,” IST Entertainment said in a press release Wednesday.

Member Zoa will also open a new YouTube channel dubbed “even better ZOA” on Thursday. Zoa is the youngest member of the group.

The member's YouTube variety show will be released every two weeks, starting Thursday, at 6 p.m. The videos will have a retro time-slip theme and will see Zoa visiting different eras to experience the past.

Weeekly debuted in 2020 with its first EP, "We are." The group is known for its upbeat high teen music, shown in songs "Tag Me (@Me)" (2020), "Zig Zag" (2020), "After School" (2021) and more.
