BIGHIT’s Summer Rush Promises Big K-pop Moments
This summer, BIGHIT MUSIC is delivering back-to-back excitement for global music fans. Starting with BTS’s first live album, followed by TXT’s full-length comeback, and culminating in the debut of a new boy group, the label is poised to dominate the season.
BTS Releases Their First Live Album on July 18
On July 18 at 1 PM KST, BTS (RM, Jin, SUGA, J-Hope, Jimin, V, Jungkook) will release ‘PERMISSION TO DANCE ON STAGE – LIVE’, their first-ever concert live album. The album features breathtaking vocals and roaring audience cheers from their global tour between 2021 and 2022, capturing the emotional highs of those unforgettable stages. After the album’s release, the members are set to reunite in the U.S. to begin preparations for a brand-new album and performances slated for next spring.
TXT Returns with Their Fourth Studio Album
Following close behind, TOMORROW X TOGETHER (Soobin, Yeonjun, Beomgyu, Taehyun, Hueningkai) is set to drop their fourth album ‘The Name Chapter: TOGETHER’ on July 21 at 6 PM KST. The title track, ‘Beautiful Strangers’, is a trap-style hip-hop anthem about growing through the strength gained from one another and celebrating differences. This marks the end of their ‘Name Chapter’ series, following the well-loved ‘Dream Chapter’ and ‘Chaos Chapter’ narratives. Notably, the album features the group’s first ever solo tracks by each member, giving fans a deeper glimpse into their individual artistry.
A Fresh Start: New BIGHIT Boy Group Debuts in August
Making their debut on August 18 is BIGHIT MUSIC’s first new boy group in six years. The rookie group, consisting of Martin, James, Juhoon, Sunghyun, and Gunho – all in their teens – is dubbed a ‘young creator crew’ thanks to their involvement in all aspects of their craft, from music and choreography to video production. Shunning fixed roles, the five members work collaboratively, highlighting their innovative approach to K-pop.
Cross-Group Collaborations Signal Strong Label Unity
The synergy among BIGHIT artists is already drawing attention. Martin contributed to TXT’s ‘Beautiful Strangers’, while he and James also participated in the creative process behind previous TXT songs like ‘Deja Vu’ and ‘Miracle’. James even helped choreograph ‘Deja Vu’, further strengthening the camaraderie between seniors and juniors under the BIGHIT banner.
Global Summer Spotlight Shines on BIGHIT Artists
With BTS, TOMORROW X TOGETHER, and a rising group ready to steal the spotlight, this summer is shaping up to be a defining moment for BIGHIT MUSIC. Whether you’re a long-time ARMY, a proud MOA, or curious about the next-gen stars, BIGHIT artists are bringing their best to fans across the globe.
