On March 3, LE SSERAFIM unveiled a track sampler for their highly anticipated 5th Mini Album, ‘HOT.’ Taking an unconventional approach, the sampler introduces different tracks using a microwave, where symbolic objects are heated—sparking curiosity and leaving fans eager to decode the hidden meanings.
The first teaser features a Nu jazz beat, with a spinning cake and candle alongside the phrase “THE FLAME RISES ONCE MORE OUT OF THE MOUND OF ASHES.” This mysterious message connects back to their Born Fire trailer, hinting at a dramatic and intense comeback. The second video, which blends pop, rock, and disco elements, showcases a piece of toast marked “HOT”—the album’s title—while the lyrics “I’M BURNING HOT / NOT RUNNING FROM IT” reinforce a bold and fearless concept.

A shift in mood appears in the third snippet, which carries a vintage-inspired sound. The lyrics “OH I KNOW YOU WANT TO TAKE MY HAND / SO COME OVER AND DANCE” suggest a playful and upbeat energy. Meanwhile, the fourth video takes on a darker tone, featuring a haunting melody and the words “BORN ANEW FROM THE ASHES NOTHING LASTS FOREVER BABY,” emphasizing themes of transformation and renewal. The final teaser introduces a Jersey House-style beat, featuring a doll holding a heart and the phrase “I LIKE THINGS TO BE COOL BUT NOT WITH YOU.”
