VIVIZ is building excitement for their upcoming 5th mini album, VOYAGE, with the release of stunning new concept photos.

On October 24, their agency, Big Planet Made Entertainment, shared the photos through official channels, giving fans a sneak peek.

In the first set of concept photos, the members showed off a relaxed and free-spirited vibe, similar to the feeling of going on a journey.

Now, the new photos reveal a more mysterious and elegant side of the group, with each member showing their own unique charm through stylish looks.

VOYAGE marks VIVIZ’s first comeback in about a year since their 4th mini album, VERSUS. While VERSUS represented VIVIZ's boldness in pushing forward, VOYAGE is all about the group's journey to take control of their own destiny, using the theme of "voyage" as a metaphor for this self-discovery.

Earlier this year, VIVIZ received lots of love for their song "MANIAC," which charted again, and they wrapped up a successful world tour that took them to 27 cities across 6 countries.

Fans are now eagerly waiting to see what kind of music VIVIZ will bring with VOYAGE, set to drop on November 7 at 6 PM KST.

BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
