BOYNEXTDOOR departed for Japan via Incheon International Airport and will hold concerts in Saga on the 29th and 30th.

BOYNEXTDOOR drew attention with its raw charm. From the 14th to the 16th, it sequentially released concept photos and films for the HAZE, OVERDRIVE, and SPARK versions of its first full album repackage, HOME: DELUXE, through official SNS and HYBE LABELS' YouTube channel. The HAZE photos showed members acting out scenes that boldly captured the lingering heat of a wild night. Set against a public restroom in a remote field, Sungho and Riwoo were shown cleaning the dirty restroom, Jaehyun and Taesan looked languid as if still under the influence of the previous night, and Leehan and Woonhak showed mischievous expressions. Through the concept film, BOYNEXTDOOR also displayed a tough appeal, sensually portraying hazy consciousness and memory while the members enjoyed reckless freedom. KOZ Entertainment said the contrasting concept, unlike the serious mood of the first full album, is increasing curiosity about the new release and expectations for the new songs.

On the afternoon of the 13th, BOYNEXTDOOR entered Korea through Gimpo International Airport after completing their overseas schedules. This article is based on local media coverage, and the photos may vary.

BOYNEXTDOOR unveiled the main special report for HOME: DELUXE, a fictional documentary tied to the title track ANIMAL. The six members acted as different animals, showing strong comedic performance, while Yoon Kyung-ho appeared as a modern human zoology expert. The video’s concept, chemistry, and acting boosted the fun. HOME: DELUXE, out on the 28th, is an expanded repackaged version of their first album HOME, expressing a desire to move into a wider world.

On the afternoon of the 1st, SBS MTV’s THE SHOW was held at SBS Prism Tower in Sangam-dong, Mapo District, Seoul, and ALPHA DRIVE ONE won first place. The broadcast featured ALPHA DRIVE ONE, MADEIN’s Sakamoto Mashiro, SF9, AEN, ONEWE, TEMPEST’s Hanbin, AtHeart, Splayit, TRYTHAT, iii, and SEO EVE.

BOYNEXTDOOR returned to Korea through Incheon International Airport on the 31st after completing the Saga performance of their Japan concert, "BOYNEXTDOOR TOUR 'KNOCK ON Vol.2' IN JAPAN."
