Co-ed group KARD, who enjoyed immense popularity overseas, particularly in South America, is set to conclude their group activities after nine years since their debut.

On July 6, their agency, DSP Media, announced through official social media channels, "KARD will release their first full-length album since debut, 'Where To Now? (Part.2) : NOWHERE', on July 28, followed by a world tour." The agency added, "After careful discussion with the members, we have agreed to conclude KARD's journey with these final activities."

The agency stated, "We sincerely thank the HIDDEN KARD (the official fandom name) who have been with KARD for a long time," and added, "We ask for your warm support and encouragement for the members as they embark on their new paths in their respective fields."

They further noted, "We hope that the new album and world tour, which the members have prepared with all their hearts, will remain as precious memories for the fans. We ask for your continued interest in these final activities, which will be filled with the most 'KARD-like' moments."

KARD is a four-member co-ed group consisting of BM, J.seph, SOMIN, and JIWOO, who officially debuted in 2017. They are considered a representative K-pop group that gained recognition abroad before making a name for themselves in Korea, thanks to strong interest from international music fans. With their unique composition as a co-ed group and a musical style blending Latin pop, moombahton, and EDM, they built a solid fandom centered in Central and South America as well as North America.
