ATEEZ Set to Release ‘GOLDEN HOUR : Part.4’ on Feb. 6

ATEEZ are returning with their 13th mini album, ‘GOLDEN HOUR : Part.4,’ set for release on February 6 at 2 p.m. KST, marking the group’s first comeback of 2026 and continuing their momentum from a globally active year.

A Comeback Built Through Global Fan Participation

Ahead of the album announcement, ATEEZ drew attention with a surprise teaser campaign using hot air balloons across key areas in Seoul. Different figures holding balloons appeared sequentially near Hongdae, subtly hinting at the group’s return and sparking speculation among fans and passersby alike.

The group later expanded the campaign internationally with a USB scavenger hunt spanning eight cities, including Taipei, Seoul, Jakarta, Melbourne, Madrid, Los Angeles, New York, and Richmond, BC. Fans were invited to locate hidden USB drives containing audio messages from the members, prompting widespread discussion and interpretation across social media platforms.

Members Stay Active Across Music and Variety

As the release date approaches, ATEEZ members have remained visible across various platforms. Yunho appeared on KBS Kpop’s ‘Leemujin Service’ on February 3, showcasing his vocal range through live performances of B-side track ‘Choose’ as well as covers of songs by Justin Bieber, Hoppipolla, and AJR.

San served as a special MC on KBS2’s ‘Boss in the Mirror’ on February 1, displaying his energetic presence and variety skills, while youngest member Jongho impressed audiences on ‘Immortal Songs’ with a duet performance of IU’s ‘My Sea,’ earning praise for his emotional delivery.

Looking Beyond the Comeback

ATEEZ are also scheduled to headline TV Asahi’s ‘The Performance’ festival on April 11 and 12, becoming the first act in the event’s history to serve as headliners for two consecutive days. The announcement has raised expectations for large-scale performances following the album’s release.

With ‘GOLDEN HOUR : Part.4,’ ATEEZ aim to extend their signature intensity and global reach, reinforcing their position as one of K-pop’s most performance-driven acts.

The mini album will be available worldwide on February 6 through major online music platforms.
