The million-seller boy group comeback race is officially at full speed. ATEEZ is set to release their 14th mini-album GOLDEN HOUR: Part.5 on the 26th, according to Edaily — entering a competitive landscape that already includes recent comebacks from TREASURE, BOYNEXTDOOR, and RIIZE. With all four groups capable of moving massive first-week numbers, top-tier boy group album sales competition is expected to be fiercer than ever.
Four Months, Another Album
The new release comes just four months after ATEEZ dropped their 13th mini-album GOLDEN HOUR: Part.4 in February. That record was no quiet release — Edaily reports it moved over 1.54 million copies in its first week alone, once again proving the group's fandom power is at an all-time high. The album also climbed to No. 3 on the Billboard 200, reaffirming ATEEZ's place as a genuine force in the global pop market.
From Small Agency to Global Stage
ATEEZ debuted in 2018 under KQ Entertainment — a mid-sized agency — and have since grown into a globally recognized act known for their intense music and high-octane performances. According to Edaily, the group is frequently cited as a standout example of an idol act that broke through the traditional limitations faced by artists from smaller companies. Now, with GOLDEN HOUR: Part.5 on the way, ATINY worldwide are gearing up for what could be yet another record-breaking week — and the competition is bringing the heat right alongside them.
