TOMORROW X TOGETHER Revisits Their Debut Era with ‘The Star Chapter: SANCTUARY’

K-Pop icons TOMORROW X TOGETHER released their latest installment to their The Chapter series The Star Chapter: SANCTUARY on November 4. Marking their 7th mini-album, the members YEONJUN, SOOBIN, BEOMGYU, TAEHYUN and HUENINGKAI introduce the listeners to a blissful storyline through the exploration of romance in a subtle, yet passionate and youthful perspective. The overarching theme of the six-track album depicts the members in the honeymoon phase of a relationship, from the sweet melodies of “Heaven” and “Forty One Winks” to the more intense and feisty tracks such as “Danger” and “Resist (Not Gonna Run Away).” The Star Chapter: SANCTUARY also features the members revisiting a promise made to a lover in their debut project “Nap of a Star” about a reunion under a starlit sky. The album’s concepts “KNIGHT,” “SAVIOUR,” “LOVER,” AND “ANGEL,” all depict love in various worlds. For instance, the members take on the role of the knight-in-shining armor alongside motorcycles in the “KNIGHT” version, thus giving a modern twist to the old-age romantic trope of a prince on a white horse. On the other hand, the “SAVIOUR” concept includes visually striking images inspired by the works of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Snow Queen.

From the Desert to Mawazine — A Reflection on ATEEZ's Six-Year Rise

Headlining an international festival with 2.5 million viewers after starting out at a company that had  only 20 employees sounds like a heartwarming movie plot — but for ATEEZ, an eight-member group from KQ Entertainment, it’s reality.

While the group has amassed many accolades and praise in the recent past, they started out not knowing if they were even going to make it to releasing their second album. In 2017, the K-Pop scene was starting to gain immense traction in the West due to its online presence, and groups from small companies were just on the cusp of being able to create a footing for themselves. ATEEZ was one of the groups vying for a chance to show their talents to a global audience.

KARD’S BM Has a Steamy Night With Chicago’s Hidden KARD

Soloist and K-Pop group KARD member BM’s After The After Party tour is a unique, 21+ event created by Konnect’d Entertainment. They describe it as, “an escape from the typical K-Pop concert scene”’ and “tailored to an adult crowd.” Along with the event being exclusively 21+, this is also an unprecedented no photos allowed event. Upon entering, everyone’s phones were zip-tied into a durable bag that allowed texting and communication but blocked photo taking.
