Girl group Dreamcatcher unveiled the third mystery code for its upcoming EP on Tuesday.
The first mystery code released Saturday was a book that seemed to contain secrets about a concept used by the group. The second mystery code, unveiled Sunday, revolves around a phone, the screen of which contained a photo of the book as well as a combination of numbers.

Fans worked on the two codes and ended up with the word “What.” It turned out their collective efforts were spot on, as Dreamcatcher uploaded an Instagram post in which the same word had replaced the combination of numbers, with a revealing caption of “Title.” Put together, it has been suggested the new EP may be called “What.”

The third mystery code, released Tuesday, is a photo of a vanity table with various cosmetic products along with a second mystery code image of a phone. On the mirror is a red triangle, prompting fans to conjecture at the hidden meaning.

This is not the first time the group has hinted at an upcoming album with mystery codes. Since its release of second EP “Fall Asleep in the Mirror” in April last year, Dreamcatcher has been releasing mystery codes to unlock new concepts for the group’s return, a unique way of communicating with fans and drumming up interest in forthcoming albums.
The latest mystery codes attracted much attention of the group’s official fan club “Insomnia,” since the upcoming EP marks the opening of the group’s second “Nightmare” series. Dreamcatcher is set to return to the stage sometime this month, but a specific date has yet to be announced.
