Two K-pop acts from HYBE's sub-labels, Source Music's Seventeen and Belift Lab's ILLIT, announced their return with a new album in October. Boy group Seventeen will be releasing its 12th mini-album, "SPILL THE FEELS," on Oct.
14, about five months after its best album, "17 IS RIGHT HERE." The new album will be the group's first release after Jeonghan, one of its members, leaves for mandatory service on Thursday as a social service personnel. He will be the first Seventeen member to begin service.
"Through their new album, which has a message of 'pour out your emotions,' they plan to convey a story that everyone can relate to," the group's agency said in the release. The group is also set to kick off the "SEVENTEEN [RIGHT HERE] WORLD TOUR" at Goyang Stadium in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province, on Oct. 12 and 13, before making stops in the United States, Japan and other Asian countries.
