I.O.I's seven-member unit group released a teaser image, giving a heads up on their comeback next week. In the image, the girls are all dressed up in identical clothing along with same makeups and hairstyles. Underneath a photograph, it reads "WXAXTX X XAN".

The girls previously hinted the theme of their comeback track will be sexy and chic, unlike their usual cute and bright themed tracks.

The teaser images have overwhelmed fans. "I've always thought the girls were cute and bright, but this image is rather creepy," said "MiracleSparrow", a user from the Nate Pann online community. Another user named "Fabris" said: "The teaser image seems like a cut from a fashion show. It's both impressive and very discomforting at the same time."

I.O.I will reveal a new single on August 9. The girls' new track will be available for sale on various music streaming services such as Bugs, Naver Music, Mnet, and Genie.

I.O.I was originally composed of 11 members picked from South Korea's survival audition program "Produce 101". The girls debuted as a project group in May 2016 and are currently active as a seven-member unit group while other members formed separate unit groups or were involved in solo activities.
