Girl group ARTMS will embark on its first world tour “Moonshot" with two Seoul concerts on July 20 and 21, the group’s agency Modhaus said Tuesday.

The venue for the Seoul concerts as well as more stops and their dates will be announced at a later date, the agency said.

ARTMS consists of five members from the now-disbanded group Loona: Heejin, Kim Lip, Jinsoul, Cheorry and Haseul.

The group is scheduled to debut with its first full-length album, “DALL,” with the lead track, “Virtual Angel,” on May 31.

It dropped “Birth,” one of the four prerelease singles from “DALL,” on Friday. The single “Flower Rhythm” will drop on April 11, followed by “Candy Crush” on April 25 and “Air” on May 10.

“Birth” was chosen as the group’s first single through Gravity, the group’s unique service on Modhaus's mobile app Cosmo that lets fans vote on ARTMS’ future activities.

ARTMS was formed in April last year after a court suspended the Loona members' exclusive contracts with their agency BlockBerry Creative.

The five members, who debuted under Loona in 2016, began solo and unit activities last year. Kim Lip, Jinsoul and Cheorry continued their subunit trio Odd Eye Circle in July, and were followed by the release of Heejin's first solo EP "K" and Haseul’s solo concert “Music Studio 81.8Hz” in October.
