The “Nation’s Girl Group” BINI officially ushered in the New Year with the release of the highly anticipated music video for “Paruparo,” the third single from their latest studio album, FLAMES.
Released at 8:00 PM on January 1, 2026, the video has sparked widespread conversation for its unconventional creative direction. In a departure from traditional P-pop visuals, the eight members of BINI—Aiah, Colet, Maloi, Gwen, Stacey, Mikha, Jhoanna, and Sheena—do not appear in the video.

According to Star Music, the physical editions of FLAMES will include member-specific booklets and a limited-edition “red-orange” vinyl, fanning the excitement for Blooms worldwide.
Artistry Over Appearance
Industry analysts view “Paruparo” as a strategic move to solidify BINI’s status as “artist-idols.” By centering the music video on fans and cultural icons, the group emphasizes the song’s message of “trusting the process” over their own physical presence.
The track itself, co-written by members Stacey, Jhoanna, and Mikha, continues to climb local charts, praised for its sophisticated blend of bubblegum pop, soul, and R&B.
