SF9 to host concert in Seoul next month
SF9 is slated to hold its fifth concert in Seoul on June 21-22, said agency FNC Entertainment on Friday. The concert, titled 'Love Dawn,' will be the first in 2 1/2 years since the band last performed in Seoul. In March, SF9 wrapped up promoting its 15th EP 'Love Race,' which topped the iTunes Top Albums chart in two regions and made the top ten in two more. Both the mini album and the concert will feature only six members, as Dawon is currently enlisted and Zuho could not join due to conflict of schedule. Zuho hosted a solo show last month in Seoul adding three new songs to the set list. He signed with agency Sun-Moon Entertainment last year to pursue an acting career, but remains a member of the band.

BTS' Jimin extends record stay on Billboard 200
Jimin of BTS demonstrated staying power on Billboard charts with his second solo album 'Muse.' The album ranked No. 109 on the Billboard 200, leaping 23 rungs from the previous week, and extended his own record for the longest stay on the main albums chart for a K-pop solo singer to 31 weeks. The album debuted on the chart at No. 2 when it was rolled out in July last year. The main track from the album, 'Who,' slid down four rungs to No. 44 on Billboard's Hot 100. The single — his first-ever solo English-language single — has spent 30 weeks on the chart, raising expectations for it to bump down Psy and BTS, who stayed on the chart for 31 and 32 weeks, respectively. 'Who' ranked No. 37 on the UK's Official Singles Chart Top 100, down 20 rungs, in its 25th week on the chart, maintaining his record streak as a K-pop soloist. SF9 to return with EP SF9 will return on March 11 with its 15th EP 'Love Race,' announced agency FNC Entertainment Wednesday. The mini album comes about seven months after the group's previous EP 'Fantasy' and will be the second installment in the 'Your Fantasy' series. The upcoming album will feature seven members of the octet, however, as Dawon started his mandatory military service last year. The 14th EP featured only five members, with Jaeyoon and Dawon enlisted and Juho unable to work out schedule conflicts due to him being with a different agency. The band reorganized into an eight-member act when Rowoon withdrew to pursue an acting career. The remaining members also have expanded into individual activities: Hwiyoung dropped his first solo album 'Traveling Fish' last year while Chanhee appeared in movies and TV dramas. Taeyang, Inseong and Jaeyoon are starring in musicals.
