JYP Entertainment announced that Stray Kids’ Lee Know is expected to begin his military service in the first quarter of 2027. He may be absent from some schedules after that time, but will meet fans through various content and solo activities before enlistment. He is likely the first member of the group to enlist.
ZEROBASEONE’s unit EMP, made up of Seok Matthew and Park Gunwook, released the music video for the title track “RUN (with Dynamic Duo)” from their first digital single, “OFF script.” The video shows them moving cautiously as if targeted, then radiating free-spirited hip-hop energy, with Dynamic Duo appearing as featured artists. EMP’s name comes from “Electro Magnetic Pulse,” symbolizing a space where only their music exists.
D Awards 2027 in Paris unveiled its fifth lineup, confirming ATEEZ’s JONGHO, WayV’s TEN and XIAOJUN, and xikers for the January 15–16 ceremony in Paris. JONGHO will host and perform solo, WayV will appear as a full five-member group, and xikers will heat up the stage with their latest comeback.
SM Entertainment posted weaker Q3 results, with sales and operating profit down year on year and net income turning to a loss. It said reduced domestic comeback schedules hurt direct music and concert revenue, while IP-based businesses grew. The company plans major comebacks and global tours from Q4 through next Q1.
