LUN8 locks in mid-september comeback as Yuma era begins

LUN8 has lined up a mid-September comeback, moving into final preparations for a new album that follows the February single 'Butterfly'. The return closes a seven-month gap in domestic releases, positioning the group for a fresh push after a year of lineup changes and overseas activity.

Scheduling aligns with steady attention from fans tracking their Japan outputs and tour schedule updates.

Yuma's first release with LUN8

This comeback marks the first Korean release since Yuma, known from 'Fantasy Boys', officially joined the team earlier in the year. Agency guidance paired his addition with European tour plans, highlighting immediate integration into promotions. Prior notices also documented Eunseop's departure and temporary pauses for Dohyun and Ji Eun-ho, shaping expectations around the current formation.

Chart traction in Japan

LUN8's Japanese campaigns have delivered visible figures, with 'Together Forever' peaking at No. 3 on the Oricon Daily Singles ranking and sustaining chart presence across releases. Coverage of their discography also notes consistent Top 10 showings and rising recognition tied to anime and TV tie-ins. These signals have bolstered interest heading into the forthcoming domestic rollout.

Touring fuels momentum

Momentum has also been driven by the group's first European showcase tour across Warsaw, Berlin, Cologne, Madrid, and Amsterdam this spring. Reports emphasized strong audience response and an expanded live footprint just two years post-debut. The upcoming September timetable now serves as the next checkpoint for translating touring gains into chart and streaming growth at home
