NMIXX Talks First World Tour, Anderson .Paak’s K-Pops! Film Single, and New Music Experiments

NMIXX is entering a bigger era — and this time, the group says fans are getting “the whole meal.”

NMIXX is continuing to expand its global presence with a major year ahead, including its first world tour, a new soundtrack single for Anderson .Paak’s upcoming film K-Pops!, and fresh music that pushes the group’s experimental sound even further.

The group recently spoke about the difference between their previous live performances and their current tour, Episode 1: Zero Frontier. Lily described past showcases as only a preview of what NMIXX could offer, while this new tour represents the full experience for fans.

The tour follows a strong wave of recognition for the group. Their song “Blue Valentine” was named Billboard’s No. 1 K-pop song of 2025, with its album also earning major praise. Lily shared that the recognition felt meaningful, especially because the members worked hard to reach that level. However, she emphasized that the reaction from their fans, known as NSWERs, remains the most important thing to NMIXX.

In 2026, NMIXX has also been building international momentum through collaborations. The group worked with Brazilian drag icon Pabllo Vittar on “TIC TIC” and also recorded a single for Anderson .Paak’s upcoming film K-Pops! These projects highlight NMIXX’s growing reach beyond traditional K-pop boundaries and show their interest in exploring different genres and audiences.

Leader Haewon also shared that she has been studying Spanish to connect more deeply with global fans. After speaking Spanish during the group’s appearance at Chile’s Viña del Mar International Song Festival, she received a positive reaction from the audience. Haewon said NMIXX would love to release more Spanish-language music in the future if given the opportunity.

Since debuting in 2022, NMIXX has built a reputation for bold concepts, genre-mixing, and adventurous performances. With their upcoming EP Heavy Serenade set to arrive next month, the group appears ready to continue experimenting while strengthening its global fanbase.

For NMIXX, 2026 is shaping up to be more than just another comeback year. It looks like the beginning of a new chapter — one focused on touring, international collaborations, and proving that their sound can keep evolving.
