[NEWS] 3 TVXQ members to release album in Korea


The three breakaway members of popular boy band TVXQ will be releasing their first album in Korea in October, marking their comeback in the music scene amid the lawsuit they filed last year against their agency SM Entertainment.

Various online Korean media reported that Youngwoong Jaejoong, Micky Yoochun and Xiah Junsu will be releasing their album under Warner Music Korea.

The album is gaining attention because of the participation of famous rapper and music producer Kanye West, and music producer Rodney “Darkchild” Jenkins. The three TVXQ members went to the US this year to record the songs.

In addition to the album, the three are reportedly going on a concert tour in 10 Asian countries.

TVXQ became controversial last year when the three members sued SM Entertainment to annul their exclusive contracts.

A Seoul court later issued a preliminary injunction that allowed the three to pursue their activities without interference from SM Entertainment. A final ruling is being awaited.

With the lawsuit, Jaejoong, Yoochun and Junsu launched their own career in Japan in April by forming their own group outside TVXQ. They released albums and held concerts with much success.
