The announcement of VERIVERY’s impending comeback comes on the heels of the seven-piece’s recently completed ‘PAGE : O’ tour of the US and Latin America. They played a total of 16 shows across September and October, with the tour ending in Mexico City on October 16.

The ‘PAGE: O’ tour was held in support of VERIVERY’s ‘Series ‘O” anthology of records, which concluded with their debut full-length studio record ‘Series ‘O’ Round 3: Whole’ in April earlier this year. That album featured title track ‘Undercover’.

VERIVERY made their debut as artists under Jellyfish Entertainment in 2019. Comprising of members Dongheon, Hoyoung, Minchan, Gyehyeon, Yeonho, Youngseung and Kangmin, the septet was the agency’s first boyband since the launch of VIXX in 2012.

In other news, rookie girl group LIGHTSUM have announced the departure of two of its members, Huiyeon and Jian, due to a “reorganisation” of the band, according to CUBE Entertainment. “After a careful discussion, we have decided to reorganise LIGHTSUM as a six-member group for their future promotions,” the label wrote. The girl group now consists of Sangah, Chowon, Nayoung, Hina, Juhyeon and Yujeong.
