The group BOYNEXTDOOR will make a comeback with a new mini album on Oct. 20.
BOYNEXTDOOR (Seongho, Riu, Myeong Jae-hyun, Taesan, I-han, Unhak) announced the release of their fifth mini album, The Action, on the 20th of next month in a video posted at 10 p.m. on the HYBE (chairman Bang Si-hyuk) Labels YouTube channel on the 22nd.
In the video, BOYNEXTDOOR transformed into a film production crew called "TEAM THE ACTION." The six members, scouting for a place to shoot, throw darts and choose Chicago as their destination. The members learn that a film festival will be held in Chicago and nurture their dreams of becoming film directors. The following scene raises anticipation by displaying the phrase "Take no.6 Ready Camera Action!" along with the new album title, "The Action," and the release date and time, Oct. 20 at 6 p.m.
The outfits BOYNEXTDOOR wear also draw attention. The hoodies bearing "TEAM THE ACTION" are the same clothes they wore when departing to attend Lollapalooza Chicago in August. The interplay between BOYNEXTDOOR's real activities and the film crew setting in the video provides fresh entertainment. In particular, the wording on the outfits links to the new album title, "The Action," heightening expectations and curiosity about promotions that will use this theme.
"The Action" is BOYNEXTDOOR's first new release in about five months since their fourth mini album, No Genre, released in May. With their fourth mini album, they achieved two consecutive million-selling records and entered the Billboard 200, the U.S. main albums chart, four times in a row. In addition, they bolstered their global presence by successfully completing their first solo tour, BOYNEXTDOOR TOUR "KNOCK ON Vol.1," in July and Lollapalooza Chicago in August. Expectations are focused on the comeback of the six members, who continue to enjoy steady commercial success.
