FOURTH MINI-ALBUM: [&]

Led by the Bollywood-inspired title track 'PTT (Paint The Town)', the seven-track project also includes an English song titled 'Dance On My Own'. It's the second English-language song from LOONA after last year's 'Star', which made it to the US Top 40 radio chart in January 2021. 

'PTT' also arrived with a powerful visual that sees the girls flaunting their sharp choreography against elegant backdrops. You can check it out below.

FAN REACTIONS

Because [&] marks LOONA's return as a full-fledged group since 2019, Orbits (fans of LOONA) took to social media to share their love for the highly anticipated comeback.

i might get cancelled for this but i think paint the town sounds familiar. the vibes, the rhythm. everything, i can't really pinpoint what it is but i'm pretty sure i've heard it already. i think it sounds like the song of the year?#LOONA
