Run or Bite: ENHYPEN’s ‘Knife’ Opens Vampire Saga – Jan 2026

ENHYPEN Returns with Their 7th Mini Album "THE SIN : VANISH"

ENHYPEN is back—and this time, they’re unleashing their darkest and most daring concept yet. On January 16, 2026, the 7-member boy group under HYBE’s BELIFT LAB (Jungwon, Heeseung, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunwoo, and Niki) will release their 7th mini album titled “THE SIN : VANISH.”

With the title track “Knife,” ENHYPEN steps boldly into a gothic, cyberpunk vampire universe that pushes both visual and musical boundaries. If you’ve been waiting for a high-concept comeback filled with story, symbolism, and striking aesthetics—this one is for you.

Let’s break down everything you need to know about this highly anticipated release.


Concept: Vampires, Forbidden Love, and Sin

ENHYPEN is no stranger to storytelling, and this comeback continues their trend of cinematic world-building. “THE SIN : VANISH” introduces the beginning of a new narrative series titled “THE SIN.”

The story centers around a vampire couple breaking societal taboos in a world where vampires and humans coexist. As they flee from those trying to separate them, their emotions and instincts grow stronger—leading to a dramatic and thrilling escape.

Each track in the album has its own “chapter video” that follows the vampire’s emotional journey. Starting with “No Way Back” and continuing with “Big Girls Don't Cry,” “Stealer,” and finally “Knife,” the videos form a visually stunning, story-driven experience that heightens anticipation for the full album.

The final chapter, “Knife,” captures a dramatic standoff between the vampire lovers and their pursuers. Surrounded by danger, they fight back with fangs, claws, and undying determination. The cyberpunk aesthetic and vivid action scenes have captivated global fans already, proving this comeback will be one for the books.


Tracklist and Music Style

Here is the full tracklist for ENHYPEN’s 7th mini album “THE SIN : VANISH”:

  1. No Way Back
  2. Big Girls Don’t Cry
  3. Stealer
  4. Knife (Title Track)

The title track “Knife” is a hip-hop and trap-influenced song that blends sharp synths, dramatic drops, and aggressive energy. With lyrics co-written by Gaeko from Dynamic Duo, the track explores the fierce confidence of a vampire in love, ready to protect what matters most.

From the first beat, “Knife” pulls you into a chilling, suspenseful soundscape that complements the dark narrative of the album. It's confident, intense, and uniquely ENHYPEN.
