ATEEZ to Release 15th EP 'Golden Hour: Part. 6' on Nov. 13

K-pop boy group ATEEZ will release its 15th EP, "Golden Hour: Part. 6," on Nov. 13, label KQ Entertainment announced on Thursday, Oct. 8, 2026. [1]

A fifteenth EP set for Nov. 13

KQ Entertainment confirmed the release date this week, marking ATEEZ's first new music in five months. The eight-member group last released music in June with its 14th EP, "Golden Hour: Part. 5." [1]

Building on a Billboard No. 1 and a chart-topping lead track

The upcoming EP follows a strong run for its predecessor. "Golden Hour: Part. 5" became the group's third album to debut at No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart, and its lead track, "Bad," held the top spot on a local K-pop charting television program for two consecutive weeks in September, roughly three months after its release. That sustained performance sets a notable bar for the new EP to follow. [1]

A group built on steady releases and major wins

ATEEZ, active since 2018, has built its "Golden Hour" series incrementally, with Parts 1 through 5 released between 2024 and 2026 alongside the album "Ashes to Light." The group has also collected major industry recognition in that period, including the Grand Prize (Daesang) and Main Award (Bonsang) at the 2026 Seoul Music Awards and Best Artist (Singer) at the 2025 Asia Artist Awards.

Part of a crowded November lineup

The announcement places ATEEZ among several acts converging on the same release window; Tomorrow X Together, Xikers and Rescene are all slated to release new EPs in November 2026 as well, with industry sources earlier pointing to ATEEZ as a likely addition to that lineup before Thursday's official confirmation.
