The Kingdom releases new mini album concept photo

The KingDom (Dan, Arthur, Mujin, Louis, Ivan, Hwon, Jahan) posted individual and group concept photos of their new mini album 'REALIZE' through their official SNS account at midnight on the 12th.
The released photo shows The Kingdom wearing casual outfits with a sporty feel. The members' bright expressions with smiles on their faces are catching the attention of fans.
The Kingdom, which debuted in 2021, has been active in the Chapter 1 'History Of Kingdom' worldview, which consists of a total of 7 episodes, and has mainly shown an intense and elegant appearance. However, in the photo released on this day, the group fully exudes their refreshing and energetic charm, raising expectations and curiosity about the new concept.
The Kingdom's new album 'REALIZE' is the 7th mini album 'History Of Kingdom: Part Ⅶ' released in October last year. This is a new album released about 6 months after 'JAHAN (History of Kingdom: Part 7. JAHAN)', and it is the first album released after changing the official name from 'KINGDOM' to 'The KingDom'. This point attracts more attention.
The Kingdom, who became the first 4th generation idol to sweep the top 5 US Amazon Music charts, has since entered the top 10 of the Billboard chart 'World Digital Song Sales' for 3 consecutive times. In addition, her popularity continues to rise both at home and abroad, including being selected as an American advertising model for the first time since her debut.
Meanwhile, The Kingdom's new mini album 'REALIZE' will be released on various online music sites at 6 PM on the 30th.
