ATEEZ Returns Nov. 13 After Billboard 200 No. 1

ATEEZ is coming back with a new album. KQ Entertainment announced the schedule at midnight on October 8 by posting a spoiler video to the group's official social media. The record is titled 'Golden Hour : Part 6' and drops at 2 p.m. It's roughly five months since the previous album in June.

The video follows the ship that has long served as the group's emblem. A ship reflected on a screen in a frozen room, skull props, and a giant hull suddenly appearing in an everyday space pass by in turn. Then come scenes that look like something has crashed into something, and it all ends with a ship cutting through a huge wave. The phrase 'CRASH TO BEGIN' that came with it reads as saying a collision can be a starting point, which has fans wondering which direction the album will take.

'Golden Hour' is a series that began with its first installment in May 2024. ATEEZ is an eight-member boy group that debuted in 2018 and has grown its fan base at home and abroad on songs like 'Hush-Hush' and 'BOUNCY.'

The previous release, the 14th mini album 'Golden Hour : Part 5,' reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 for the third time and made the top 10 for the ninth. Its title track 'BAD' spread by word of mouth through a dance challenge and made a big splash. Even though official promotions were over and the group no longer appeared on music shows, the song took No. 1 on 'Inkigayo' on September 13 and 20, about three months after release.
