&TEAM is showing a strong presence ahead of their Korean debut. On the 13th, they released the concept clip and the photo "BREATH" version of their first Korean mini-album "Back to Life" through their official SNS. The content symbolically captures the "moment of awakening," overcoming trials and rising again, emphasizing &TEAM's instinct for challenge.
In the concept clip video, the nine members—Uiju, Huma, K, Nicholas, Yuma, Jo, Harua, Taki, and Maki—appear against the backdrop of a fight club. They show a narrative of turning wounds and hardships into energy for growth by falling down exhausted but getting back up onto the ring. The lighting, which creates a stark contrast between light and darkness, combined with styling using wild materials such as leather and metal, completes &TEAM's strong yet restrained visual.
The scene where the nine members face each other on the ring reveals the team's unity and conviction, visually embodying &TEAM's identity symbolized by "wolf DNA." From the 14th to the 17th, additional concept photos and clips of "Back to Life" will be released sequentially.
Following that, on the 20th, a track sampler will be released; on the 21st, the tracklist; and on the 22nd, the highlight medley. On the 27th, the title track's audio and music video will be pre-released, and on the 28th at 6 PM, the Korean mini-album "Back to Life" will be released worldwide.
&TEAM is the first localized group of HYBE's overseas subsidiaries, having debuted in Japan in 2022. With their third single "Go in Blind," released last April, they surpassed 1 million cumulative shipments and received "Million Certification" from the Japan Record Association. The various content releases related to &TEAM's Korean debut are raising fans' expectations even higher.
