The seven-piece act returns with new music about five months since the previous mini album, 'Nallina.' The new album consists of five tracks. The physical album will have an additional track, titled 'Z Side_250226.' The titular track 'best shows our unique energy, blending old-school hip-hop rhythm and dazzling performance,' said Seita. 'There are many points that play up and I could not help but replay the song many times when I first listened to it,' added Hyui. He said his favorite song from the EP, though, is side track 'Run With Me,' especially the phrase 'It's OK/ Take your time,' written by Han of Stray Kids. 'The fact that we participated in creating the choreography makes this album even more significant,' said Yu.

K-pop guitar bands to hit the stage
OneWe, Xdinary Heroes and Day6 headed for international tours K-pop's guitar bands are thriving like never before, with concerts and tours being announced one after another. OneWe, a five-piece group known for its emotional melodies, kicked off its first North American tour on Sunday. Starting in Orlando, the band will perform in 20 cities across North America, including Washington, New York, Boston, Toronto, Detroit, Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle and Vancouver. The Orlando and Boston shows have already sold out, showcasing the band's rising popularity overseas. After wrapping up the tour, OneWe will mark the finale with encore concerts in Seoul, June 14 and 15. Lucy is returning with a series of concerts following the release of its new album. The band will hold its seventh solo concert 'Wajangchang' from May 2 to 4 at HwaJeong Gymnasium at Korea University in Seoul. The concert shares its title with Lucy's sixth mini-album, which is set to be released on April 23. Fans will get to hear the album's tracks performed live for the first time, including the pre-release song 'Wakey Wakey.' Ahead of the concert, Lucy surprised about 1,500 fans with a busking event in northern Seoul on March 27. Unlike other bands, Lucy features a violinist — Shin Ye-chan — in its four-member lineup, earning love for its childlike musical style and whimsical lyrics. Since drummer Shin Gwang-il is currently serving in the military, a session drummer will fill in during the concert. Rock band Xdinary Heroes will launch its second world tour, 'Beautiful Mind,' with concerts from May 2-5 at Olympic Hall in Seoul. The show comes just over a year since the group wrapped up its first world tour, 'Break the Brake,' which started in November 2023 and stopped at 12 cities across Europe and Southeast Asia. This time, the sextet plans to visit 15 cities in Korea, Southeast Asia and the United States. The group released its sixth mini-album, 'Beautiful Mind,' on March 24, featuring a heavy rock title track and six other songs. Following the tour, Xdinary Heroes is also set to perform at the major US music festival Lollapalooza Chicago for the first time on July 31. Day6 will conclude its third world tour with a grand finale of six shows in Seoul on May 9–11 and 16–18. Day6's "Forever Young" world tour began Sept. 20, 2024, at Inspire Arena in Incheon and has included 45 shows in 23 cities across Asia, Oceania and North America. Starting with its 2015 debut concert at a venue that held about 1,000 people, Day6 has grown steadily. In 2024, it drew 30,000 fans over three days at Jamsil Indoor Stadium in Seoul and later performed for 40,000 fans at Inspire Arena. In December, the band became the first K-pop guitar band to perform at Gocheok Sky Dome. Now, in its 10th year, Day6 will take the stage at KSPO Dome, one of Seoul's most iconic performance venues. Though its capacity is slightly smaller than Gocheok Sky Dome, with around 15,000 seats per show, Day6 plans to meet a total of over 90,000 fans over six performances.
