Aespa will drop a new album early next month, reported a Korean media report on Thursday.

Label SM Entertainment confirmed the news following the report. The group was set to do so in February, but the dates were postponed due to a conflict over the company’s management. It, however, held its first standalone concert in Seoul on Feb. 25-26.

Its last album was second EP Girls, which sold more than 1.42 million copies in the first week and became the first album from a K-pop girl group to sell over a million in the period. The EP also notched No. 3 spot on Billboard 200.

Separately, the four members flew to Japan on Tuesday for their Japan tour that will bring them to four cities in the country: Osaka, Tokyo, Saitama and Nagoya. – The Korea Herald/Aaia News Network
