Background

Following the release of "Shagidi", Bini announced that their next single, "First Luv", would be released in October. The group teased the song with a series of concept photos featuring group and individual shots, where the members wore ruffled, corseted pink outfits. On September 16, Coachella officially announced Bini as a part of their 2026 lineup, marking them as the first Filipino act to perform at the festival. The group will perform on April 10 and 17, 2026.[2]

Bini released the single "First Luv" on October 2, 2025, and it serves as their first Tagalog single following a series of all-English tracks such as "Blink Twice" and "Cherry on Top".[3] On the week of October 18, 2025, "First Luv" debuted at number 73 on the Billboard Philippines Hot 100 and is reportedly the only P-pop song on the chart for the week.[4]

The video features a similar aesthetic to their latest single, "First Luv", which was previously released on October 2, 2025.[5] It was teased in an Instagram reel in which the girls are starting to play the Filipino game, FLAMES.[6] Following the release of "First Luv", Bini announced the release of their pre-release single, titled "Paruparo". It was released on November 6, 2025, ahead of the album's release.[7] The album was released on November 20, 2025, under Star Music.[8]

It was announced that the group will hold their concert titled Binified: A Year-End Concert, scheduled for November 29 at the Philippine Arena in Bulacan. They also revealed plans to release a new album featuring English and Filipino tracks, some of which would be performed at the concert.[9][10]
