On Wednesday, 28 February, YG Entertainment, iKON’s management agency posted a teaser image for iKON’s new single release for Monday, 5 March. The title and concept of the new song have not been revealed.
The release comes just a little over a month after iKon (아이콘) released its second studio album named Return on 25 January 2018.
Previously, YG Entertainment founder Yang Hyun Suk (양현석) has announced a few times on his personal social media account that the boy band is preparing a surprise (‘심장주의’) for iKONIC (iKON’s fan club), referring to the release of the new single.
The news came as a pleasant shock for the fans, since lately, the K-pop act had concentrated most of its promotional efforts in Japan.
