Love Pt. 3: Eternally is the sixth extended play by South Korean boy group WEi. It was released by Oui Entertainment on June 29, 2023, and contains five tracks, including the lead single "Overdrive".

Background and release

On May 31, 2023, it was announced the group would release their sixth extended play Love Pt. 2: Passion on June 29 while also holding a concert WEi Showcase Concert: Eternal Sunshine.[1] On June 11, the track list was released, with "Overdrive" announced as the lead single.[2] On June 15, the highlight medley video was released. Music video teasers for the lead single were released on June 23 and June 27, respectively.[3][4]

Composition

Love Pt. 3: Eternally consists of five tracks and as the last album in the group's Love trilogy, expresses a love that we should give to ourselves, rather than a love we give to others expressed in the previous albums. The lead single "Overdrive" is a song that combines a cool guitar sound with an exciting dance beat that expresses embarking on a journey at full speed and ultimately finding and loving oneself that resonates with the anxiety and worries of youth. The second track "Be Alright (chillin')" is a song with a Latin music groove with a guitar riff and moombahton beat that expresses a passionate mood when facing someone and looking into their eyes. The third track "Thriller" is a song with a heavy bass that expresses the thrill of falling for someone at an unknown depth. The fourth track "All Day With You" is a R&B song with a nostalgic 90s vibe along with a lofi hip hop groove. The fifth track "End Of The Day" is a song that brings warm and comforting emotions to someone who remembers the end of a hard day at work.[5]

Promotion

A day prior to the release of Love Pt. 3: Eternally, WEi held a showcase concert to introduce the extended play and communicate with their fans. The group performed all the tracks of the extended play while also performing previously released songs during the concert.[6] The group's promotions for the song "Overdrive" began on June 29, 2023, on Mnet's M Countdown.[7] The B-side track "Thriller" was also performed during the group's promotions.
