Ateez scheduled for November comeback

K-pop boy group Ateez is preparing for a musical comeback in November, according to industry sources. The return is currently scheduled for the second week of November, with November 9 being used for broadcast scheduling purposes, though the official release date may vary.

Based on the group’s previous release patterns, a Friday release—specifically November 13—is considered a likely candidate to maximize chart impact on the U.S. Billboard charts. The upcoming release may serve as a continuation of the ‘Golden Hour’ series, which has seen five installments over the last two years.

Ateez’s most recent release, ‘Golden Hour: Part. 5’ featuring the single ‘Bad,’ debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in June. KQ Entertainment has stated it will provide more details regarding the November return at a later time.
