Latin pop group SANTOS BRAVOS has offered the first performance preview of its upcoming single "ORIGAMI" during an appearance on NBC's "TODAY" show.

The five-member group appeared on the American morning program on Nov. 3 local time, performing a portion of the unreleased track ahead of its Nov. 20 release.

SANTOS BRAVOS also performed "MHM," a track from its debut EP, "DUAL," showcasing a different side of the group's musical identity.

During the "MHM" performance, the members used handheld microphones while moving across the stage, combining playful expressions and relaxed choreography to capture the excitement of young love.

The group then introduced part of the choreography for "ORIGAMI," incorporating fluid movements and synchronized formations set to Latin-inspired rhythms.

The performance marked an early look at the upcoming collaboration with &TEAM, the global group under HYBE Japan.

According to HYBE Latin America, "ORIGAMI" draws inspiration from the Japanese art of paper folding, using the creases formed in paper as a metaphor for the experiences, relationships and lessons that shape a person's identity.

The song explores themes of personal growth, resilience, gratitude and remaining connected to one's roots.

"ORIGAMI" will serve as a pre-release track for SANTOS BRAVOS' second EP, scheduled for release in 2027.

The collaboration also marks the group's second musical project with &TEAM, following "KAWASAKI (&TEAM Remix)" in February.

SANTOS BRAVOS debuted in October 2025 under HYBE Latin America as part of the company's strategy to develop artists across multiple markets and genres using elements of the K-POP training and production model.

The group consists of Drew from the United States, Kauê from Brazil, Alejandro from Peru, Kenneth from Mexico and Gabi from Puerto Rico.

Following the November release of "ORIGAMI," SANTOS BRAVOS is scheduled to perform at Lollapalooza festivals in Chile, Argentina and Brazil in March 2027, continuing its expansion across international markets.
