82MAJOR Set to Make a Comeback with New Album 'Trophy'

82MAJOR, the dynamic group consisting of Nam Sung-mo, Park Seok-jun, Yoon Ye-chan, Cho Sung-il, Hwang Sung-bin, and Kim Do-kyun, is making a highly anticipated return with their new album 'Trophy'.

The group is set to release their fourth mini-album 'Trophy' on October 30th at 6 PM through various online music platforms. This album marks a significant milestone for 82MAJOR as they aim to solidify their presence in the music industry in their second year since debut.

Since their debut in 2023, 82MAJOR has been making waves both domestically and internationally. They held their first solo concert just three months after debut, and have since sold out four solo concerts. Their successful tours in North America, Taiwan, and Malaysia have further established their global presence.

The title track 'Trophy' explores the theme of perseverance and triumph amidst endless competition and scrutiny, symbolized by the 'trophy' they ultimately achieve.

Known for their powerful performances, 82MAJOR has earned the title of 'performance idols'. They have recently graced stages at major festivals and award shows such as 'Waterbomb Busan 2025', 'KCON LA 2025', 'TIMA', 'ATA Festival 2025', and 'EveryOne Fes 2025'. Their growing international influence was further cemented by signing exclusive contracts with Japan's Horipro International and ePlus in September.

For their comeback, 82MAJOR has pulled out all the stops. The choreography for 'Trophy' was crafted by the popular dance crew We Dem Boyz, and director Kim Sung-wook, who worked on their previous projects, has once again taken the helm for the music video, promising stunning visuals. The group is determined to showcase upgraded visuals and performances.

The fourth mini-album is a collaborative project with 82MAJOR members actively involved in song selection and production. It features four tracks, including the title track 'Trophy', 'Say More', 'Suspicious', and 'Need That Bass'.

Notably, all members contributed to the songwriting and composition. 'Say More' features lyrics by Nam Sung-mo and Yoon Ye-chan, with Park Seok-jun, Yoon Ye-chan, and Hwang Sung-bin involved in composition. 'Suspicious' showcases the collective songwriting and composition talents of all members, while 'Need That Bass' also highlights contributions from select members.

The album will be available on October 30th at 6 PM.
