STAYC [NEWS1]

Girl group STAYC will return to the music scene with a new album in July.

According to its agency High Up Entertainment, the girl group “has recently finished filming a music video and is readying themselves with final preparations before the comeback.”

The album comes five months since the group released its last EP, “Young-Luv.com.”

During those five months, STAYC kept itself busy by participating in concerts such as the KCON 2022 Premiere in May and the 28th Dream Concert in June.

The girl group, who was chosen as one of the “KCON 2022 Rookies,” will tour six cities in the United States as part of the upcoming KCON 2022 U.S. Tour from Aug. 23 to Sept. 1.

STAYC is a six-member girl group that debuted in November 2020. The group consists of members Sumin, Sieun, Isa, Seeun, Yoon and J. It debuted with the song "So Bad" (2020) and has since released hits "ASAP" (2021) and "Stereotype" (2021).

The girl group established itself as a popular fourth-generation K-pop group as it was also chosen as one of five notable artists for 2022 by Apple Music and Shazam and made NME's 100 Emerging Artists of 2022 in January.
