&Team's 3rd single sells half million in 1 day

Korea Herald24-04-2025
&Team's third physical single sold over half a million copies on its day of release, according to Billboard Japan on Wednesday.
This is the shortest time for an album from the group to achieve the feat; previous albums did so in at least three weeks.
The main track 'Go in Blind' topped Oricon's Daily Single Ranking, as did two previous sets it released last year — the second physical single 'Aoarashi' and the second LP 'Yukiakari.'
The band unveiled all six tracks from the new album online before releasing the physical album.
Next month, the band of nine will embark on its monthslong 'Awaken The Bloodline' tour and visit nine cities in Asia. The first stop will be Nagoya, Japan, followed by three more in the country as well as four in Southeast Asia and Seoul. The Seoul shows will be held June 7-8.

Ive drops prerelease from Japan album

Ive has unveiled the focus single from its upcoming album in Japan with a music video, agency Starship Entertainment said Friday. The group of six uploaded the video for 'Be Alright,' which fronts its third EP of the same title. Opening with Rei asleep at her desk, the other members appear one by one to pick out clothes for, and support her at an interview before dancing together at her house, savoring freedom. The single encourages listeners to keep on going instead of being afraid of changes telling them they are not alone. The new Japan mini album will be released on July 30, almost a year after Ive's second EP 'Alive,' which debuted atop Oricon's Daily Album Ranking. In April, the group dropped another track from the third EP, 'Dare Me,' as the opening theme song for a Japanese TV show.
