'K-pop's leading coed group' KARD returns with their first full-length album filled from fan songs to solo tracks.
KARD heated up comeback anticipation by releasing a Highlight medley video of their first full-length album Where To Now? (Part.2) : NOWHERE on their official YouTube channel at 12 a.m. today (24).
The released video was produced modeled after a stylish SNS feed and catches the eye. In a fresh format where clicking each post plays a portion of a track, the warm chemistry among the members during concept photo shoots adds to the viewing pleasure.
The album's title track Back To Life is a dancehall song based on dembow that stylishly reinterprets tropical sounds in KARD's unique color. Member BM composed it, and all members participated in the lyrics, completing a warm message of comfort and solidarity saying they will always be a place to lean on.
The new record includes, besides the title track, Armor, which expresses an unwavering will in the face of outside views; At Least, which paints the bitter aftertaste of a breakup; and Signal, which contains an irresistible thrill. Also included are the affectionate fan song Always for the fans who stayed by them, and four solo tracks that showcase each member's strengths—Move (BM solo), EASY (J.seph solo), Backseat (SOMIN solo), and Home Sweet Home (JIWOO solo)—offering a wide range of genres.
The first full-length album Where To Now? (Part.2) : NOWHERE continues the narrative of the group's seventh EP released in August 2024, weaving the truths and answers found after a long wandering into music. The story that the members, who wandered searching for a 'nowhere' (NOWHERE), have finally arrived at the brightest destination, 'now here' (NOW HERE), is raising fans' expectations.
Meanwhile, KARD will officially release the first full-length album Where To Now? (Part.2) : NOWHERE through various online music sites at 6 p.m. on the 28th. Then on Aug. 8, they will hold the world tour KARD 2026 WORLD TOUR "NOW HERE" IN SEOUL at Gabin Art Hall in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and have a special meeting with domestic and international fans.
