iKON DEBUT HALF ALBUM [WELCOME BACK]
iKON has finally come to us after a long wait, WELCOME BACK!
It was a difficult and long journey. Having gone through two survival programs, B.I, Kim Jinhwan, BOBBY, Song Yunhyung, Koo Junhoe, Kim Donghyuk, and Jung Chanwoo have now become the name iKON. Their debut, which can be described as having "returned," is as welcoming and exciting as meeting a friend after a long time.
On September 15, 2015, they presented the WARM-UP SINGLE ‘My Type,’ taking the number one spot on all music charts day after day.
With this, the "GET READY" they shouted countless times in the past became the symbolic signal announcing the arrival of iKON.
This DEBUT HALF ALBUM ‘WELCOME BACK’ consists of the words fans wanted to say to iKON, and the music iKON wanted to share with their fans. Through self-producing every track, they strove to complete music that only iKON can do—music that is "iKON-esque"—along with their gratitude toward the fans who waited.
The bold and confident appearance shown in the teaser images directly represents the positive and energy-filled hearts of iKON, making their debut even more anticipated.
Furthermore, the iKON DEBUT CONCERT ‘SHOWTIME,’ which is unusual for a rookie group, will feature the tracks from the DEBUT HALF ALBUM on stage for the first time, which will be enough to instantly quench the thirst of the fans.
Now, all we have to do is enjoy iKON's SHOWTIME, which is just about to begin.
“GET READY, SHOWTIME!”
iKON DEBUT HALF ALBUM ‘WELCOME BACK’ will begin pre-orders on September 18 and will be sold in limited quantities at the iKON DEBUT CONCERT ‘SHOWTIME’ on October 3. From October 5, it will be available at the YG e-shop as well as online and offline record stores nationwide.
