RIIZE unveils October single and 2027 full-length album 'EMOTIION'

Anniversary fan meeting sets the stage

RIIZE unveiled its near-term release schedule during the first night of the group's third-anniversary fan meeting, "Ch. RIIZE : ON AIR," held on September 12 at Incheon's INSPIRE Arena. The K-pop group surprised attendees by confirming two separate releases, extending its activity into 2027 after a busy 2026 that included the second mini album II and the Japanese single Sunburst.

October digital single launch

The first of the announced projects is a new digital single scheduled for release on October 26, 2026, marking RIIZE's next major Korean music release following II, which arrived in June as a six-track mini album featuring songs such as "Do Your Dance," "SOAR" and "D-D-Done." Further details, including the single's title and concept, are expected to be announced separately. The August release Sunburst has since received Platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of Japan.

'EMOTIION' positioned as second full-length album

RIIZE's next full-length project will carry the title EMOTIION and is planned for spring 2027, framed as the group's second full-length album after ODYSSEY, which was released in 2025. The announcement locks in two distinct releases across consecutive release windows and gives fans concrete dates for the group's return to Korean music activity.

What remains to be confirmed

The October 26 single's title, concept and promotional plan have not yet been disclosed, and additional details for EMOTIION, including its track list and exact release date within spring 2027, are pending. Further announcements are expected ahead of the digital single rollout.
