‘Accidentally On Purpose’ is the long-awaited follow-up to her debut solo mini-album ’28 Reasons’, which came out in 2022. The new release was first confirmed by her label back in November 2024, via an earnings report published by the company that included a music line-up preview for the following year.
Back in 2022, NME‘s Rhian Daly gave ’28 Reasons’ a glowing five-star review: “Seulgi has long proved herself as an intoxicating and masterful performer in Red Velvet, and now, she’s ready to apply that experience to her own shining moment. On ‘28 Reasons’, she burns brighter than ever.”
Aside from her upcoming solo release, Seulgi is also gearing up for a comeback with bandmate Irene as part of their sub-unit. SM Entertainment unveiled in a separate earnings report published earlier this month that she and Irene are set to return with a new mini-album together, their first in five years since ‘Monster’.
