J.Y. Park is returning to his summer music roots with "WET," a new digital single set for release on July 23, betting that a reggae-inspired anthem can once again become the soundtrack of the season.

The single marks Park's first summer-themed release since 2020's "When We Disco," his duet with Sunmi, ending a six-year hiatus from the seasonal genre that helped define some of his most recognizable hits.

The song has also been selected as the official theme song for Waterbomb 2026, one of Korea's largest summer music festivals.

Park is scheduled to perform at both the Seoul and Busan editions of the festival, where organizers expect "WET" to play a central role in this year's performances.
