“Forever” will be a cover of Yoo Young Jin’s 2000 song of the same name. It’s a tradition for SM Entertainment's girl groups to release a cover as their second single - notable examples include SNSD’s 2011 song “Girls’ Generation” and Red Velvet’s 2014 track “Be Natural.”
Aespa began posting teasers for their comeback on Sunday night, showing each member in pink and orange photos:
