South Korean band Day6 have released their new single ‘Welcome to the Show’, their first as full group in almost three years.
‘Welcome to the Show’ leads Day6’s brand-new album ‘Fourever’. The music video for the new song captures the band performing the song in a studio, alongside a loose storyline about a couple falling in love.
“The future that you’re welcoming with me might be risky / But there might also be tear-filled impassion / Even so, if you won’t let go of my hand / If so, then let’s go, welcome to the show,” they sing on the anthemic new song.
Speaking to The Korea Times, Day6 said that they had “opted for a more upbeat song as the title track” as compared to the “melancholic tone” of their previous singles hoping to “exude a welcoming and exhilarating vibe”.
‘Fourever’ marks Day6’s first album as a full group in nearly three years, now that all four members have completed their mandatory military service. Their last music together was April 2021’s ‘The Book Of Us: Negentropy’, the fourth in the band’s ‘The Book Of Us’ series of albums.
The group debuted with six members, however have carried on with activities as a quartet after keyboardist and vocalist Junhyeok left the band in 2016 – just a year after their debut – and guitarist and vocalist Jae left in 2021. Day6 now comprises Sungjin, Young K, Wonpil and Dowoon.
In other K-pop news, boyband Tomorrow X Together (TXT) also announced that they would be releasing a new mini-album titled ‘minisode 3: Tomorrow’ in April. It will mark the quintet’s first music of 2024, with their last having been released in October 2023, led by title track ‘Chasing That Feeling’.
