RIIZE is preparing to release their second full-length album, which SM Entertainment announced will arrive in spring 2027! The six-member group revealed the release schedule during its third-anniversary fan meeting, Ch. Riize: On Air, held at Incheon’s Inspire Arena on September 13, 2026.
Before the album officially drops, RIIZE will delight fans with a prologue single on October 26. The SM Entertainment boy group is expected to continue promotional activities through the end of 2026 before moving into the next stage of their album campaign. The upcoming project will mark the boy band’s follow-up to Odyssey, RIIZE’s first full-length album. That project was released on May 19, 2025, and included tracks such as “Fly Up,” “Bag Bad Back,” and “Ember to Solar.”
Odyssey became a major commercial success for the group, selling more than 1.79 million copies during its first week in South Korea and setting a new personal record. The album was also included on Billboard’s list of the 25 Best K-pop Albums of 2025, and its last track, “Another Life,” appeared on Clash’s list of the 15 Biggest K-pop Statements of 2025. Meanwhile, RIIZE celebrated their third anniversary with two sold-out fan meetings over September 12 and September 13, drawing approximately 23,000 fans across both days. The next album will continue the group’s successful story into their fourth year.
