With summer in full swing, the high-profile comebacks by the biggest K-Pop stars just keep coming. July 2024 is shaping up to be the busiest month for K-Pop fans, with the long-awaited new albums by ENHYPEN, Stray Kids, and Jimin of BTS all confirmed for release.
And they’re not the only ones. Here is the complete rundown of K-Pop comebacks happening in July 2024.
July 1, 2024
STAYC The 1st Album "Metamorphic"
Opening in July, the six-member girl group STAYC is set to release its first full album, Metamorphic. The album will showcase the group’s musical evolution, as they made a name for themselves with bops like “ASAP,” “STEREOTYPE,” “RUN2U,” “BEAUTIFUL MONSTER,” “Teddy Bear,” and “Bubble.”
Metamorphic marks STAYC’s first comeback in 11 months since releasing their 3rd mini album, “TEENFRESH,” in August 2023. During the (almost) one-year gap, the girl group embarked on their first-ever world tour, “TEENFRESH,” in a total of 15 cities, which concluded last March.
Surely, SWITH has waited long enough to see Isa, Si Eun, Se Eun, Sumin, Yoon, and J back onstage with new songs, and their patience will be rewarded real soon. Teasers for the album are out, hinting at a more mature and sophisticated concept compared to their previous comebacks.
BABYMONSTER - Digital Single "Forever"
On the same day, rookie sensation BABYMONSTER is also set to return with a brand new digital single, “Forever.” Teaser images for the single promise another highly sophisticated concept, with the seven girls posing as magazine cover models.
Within a short span after debuting last year, BABYMONSTER has amassed a huge fanbase worldwide thanks to bangers like “Batter Up” and “Sheesh!” It goes without saying that “Forever” will also be highly awaited by their legion of fans.
NCT WISH - 2nd Single Album Songbird
NCT is gearing up for a highly awated comeback with their upcoming 2nd single album titled ‘Songbird’ (Ver. 1). Anticipation is mounting among fans worldwide as they eagerly await new music and performances from the group.
‘Songbird’ showcases NCT’s diverse musical styles and their innovative prowess within the K-pop industry. The Japanese version, released on June 24, sold out instantly. Don’t miss your chance to grab the Korean version when it releases on July 1!

(G)I-DLE - The 7th Mini Album "I SWAY"
After the massive successes of “Super Lady” and “Fate” in winter this year, (G)I-DLE is now set to heat up the summer with a new mini album, “I SWAY.” The album teaser evokes a peppy, vibrant mood perfect for the sunny season. A comeback timeline poster has been released, fueling more anticipation for Neverland.
The comeback marks the latest foray in what has been a very prolific year for the 5-member girl group. Their second album, “2,” earlier this year, still holds the record for the highest first-week sales by a female K-Pop group in 2024. The members have each had a busy year, too: attending fashion weeks, being appointed brand ambassadors, appearing on magazine covers, and doing solo projects.
And later following the comeback, (G)I-DLE is kicking off their world tour, 2024 (G)I-DLE WORLD TOUR [iDOL]. New music + concert tour? Neverland is so well-fed this year! Pre-order SWAY on DKshop today.

Weeekly - 6th Mini Album "Bliss"
In 2021, K-Pop girl group Weeekly (yes, with three “e”s) made waves with the exuberantly catchy track “After School.” Since then, the six-member group has consistently produced girly pop music that highlights its cute and feminine image.
Weeekly is back with its 6th mini album, “Bliss,” this July. This is the group’s first release in eight months, following last year’s mini album, “ColoRise,” with its title track, “Vroom Vroom.”
The pink-hued comeback schedule poster evokes some retro pin-up imagery. Could we be getting a vintage-themed comeback? We’ll find out real soon!
July 10, 2024
FT Island - 7th Full Album
Multigenerational K-Pop band FT Island is celebrating their 17th anniversary this year. Bringing an end to their lasting hold in the music industry, the group is to release their 7th full album on July 10. This is FT Island’s first comeback since “Sage” last year and their first full album in eight years since 2016’s “Where’s The Truth.”
A pioneer of rock band-idol group hybrid, FT Island debuted in 2007 with “Love Sick” and achieved instant success. Their unique format would go on to inspire other idol band groups like CN BLUE (FT Island’s own labelmate), DAY6, The Rose, and Xdinary Heroes.

ENHYPEN - 2nd Full Album "ROMANCE : UNTOLD"
K-Pop’s hottest boy group, ENHYPEN, is gearing up to sizzle up the summer with their new album “ROMANCE : UNTOLD.”
This full-length album follows the well-received vampire-themed mini albums DARK BLOOD and ORANGE BLOOD last year. In May, the 7-member group also released the special album MEMORABILIA in accordance with their webtoon DARK MOON. ENHYPEN sure loves the mythical concept, don’t they?
While the concept of “ROMANCE : UNTOLD” is still kept largely under wraps, Engene can expect out-of-this-world creativity synonymous with their beloved group. In a groundbreaking move, the group is releasing a lavish concept film directed by film director Lee Chung Hyun (Ballerina) ahead of their comeback.
July 19, 2024
Stray Kids - 9th Mini Album "ATE"
On July 19, record-breaking boy group Stray Kids is poised to once again rock the music industry with their latest mini album, “ATE.” A wordplay from the group’s favorite catchphrase, “Eight is Fate,” STAY can expect another experimental masterpiece incorporating multiple genres that have come to define Stray Kid’s music.
Ahead of the comeback, Stray Kids have released a comedic album trailer peppered with gags and easter eggs that will have STAYs playing detectives until more teasers arrive.
This marks Stray Kids’ first comeback after their Billboard 200-topping mini album “Rock Star” last November and their first-ever English-language digital single “Lose My Breath” in May.
