BOYNEXTDOOR will make a comeback on October 20 with a new album. Yesterday (22nd) at 10 PM, BOYNEXTDOOR released a video through HYBE LABELS' YouTube channel, announcing the release of their 5th mini album 'The Action' on October 20. In this video, BOYNEXTDOOR transforms into a film production crew called 'TEAM THE ACTION.' The six members, searching for a filming location, throw darts to choose Chicago as their destination. They learn about a film festival happening in Chicago and nurture their dreams of becoming filmmakers. In the following scene, with the phrase 'Take no.6 Ready Camera Action!' the album title 'The Action' and release date are announced. The costumes worn by BOYNEXTDOOR are also eye-catching. The hoodies with 'TEAM THE ACTION' written on them are the same ones they wore when departing for the 'Lollapalooza Chicago' held in August. The combination of BOYNEXTDOOR's actual activities and the film crew setting in the video creates a fresh and interesting appeal. The wording on the costumes connects to the album title 'The Action,' raising expectations and interest for future promotions. 'The Action' is their new album released about five months after their 4th mini album 'No Genre' released in May. They achieved two consecutive million-seller albums with the 4th mini album. Furthermore, they successfully completed their first concert tour 'BOYNEXTDOOR TOUR 'KNOCK ON Vol.1' in July and 'Lollapalooza Chicago' in August, enhancing their presence in the global music scene.
