The world's first idol group with hearing impairments, Big Ocean, is set to return this April with a new mini album.
On the 21st, their agency, Parastar Entertainment, announced, "Big Ocean will release a new mini album next month," and unveiled the group's new logo.
They added, "The promotional schedule will be revealed soon. The new album will showcase a more mature side of Big Ocean, moving away from their previous 'pure' concept," heightening anticipation for the upcoming release.
This comeback marks approximately five months since the release of their first mini album 'Follow' last November. Fans are eager to see what transformation Big Ocean will present with this new release.
With a name that means "to greatly surprise the world" and a vision to expand globally like the ocean, Big Ocean officially debuted on April 20 last year, coinciding with Disability Day. Since their debut, they have spread positive energy through tracks like 'Glow', 'BLOW', 'SLOW (Feat. Young K (DAY6))', and 'FLOW', gaining significant attention both domestically and internationally, and showcasing remarkable growth.
Having recently completed their first solo concert 'Follow' in Nagoya, Japan, Big Ocean is set to embark on their first European tour, 'Underwater', this April.
'Underwater', which symbolizes awakening instincts and potential beneath the surface, will kick off in Lausanne, Switzerland, on April 19-20, followed by performances in Milan, Italy on the 23rd, London, UK on the 24th, Paris, France on the 26th, and Montpellier, France on the 27th, covering a total of five cities.
