82MAJOR Trades Fighter Looks for Sleek Charisma in New "HEAT" Photos

82MAJOR is showcasing a dramatic change in atmosphere ahead of the release of their upcoming single "HEAT."

The group unveiled the second set of concept photos for their second single "HEAT" through their official social media accounts on August 13, offering another glimpse at the contrasting concepts behind their September 1st comeback.

In the newly released group photos, members Seongil, Yechan, Seongmo, Seongbin, Seokjoon, and Dogyun appear dressed in all-black leather jackets and suits. While the first concept photos portrayed the members as rugged, battle-worn fighters, the latest images trade that raw intensity for a cleaner and more restrained sense of style.

The individual photos further emphasize the shift through dramatic lighting and bold colors as each member poses against a differently colored backdrop. Furthermore, leather is incorporated into their styling thus creating a sleek visual identity that contrasts with the grittier atmosphere previously revealed.

The latest images follow the release of a visual film and the first set of concept photos, with 82MAJOR continuing to tease different sides of "HEAT" ahead of its arrival. Attention is now turning toward how the contrasting imagery will translate into the single's sound, story and performance.

The comeback follows a period of growing activity for the group. 82MAJOR recently wrapped their first fan concerts in Seoul and Macau, while "Sign," the title track from their fifth mini album "FEELM," ranked No. 9 on Billboard’s list of the "25 Best K-Pop Songs of 2026 So Far."

Meanwhile, 82MAJOR's second single "HEAT" will be released on September 1 at 6 p.m. KST.
