SEOUL, August 04 (AJP) - K-pop rock band Day6 is celebrating a decade together with a large-scale concert and the release of a new full-length album, JYP Entertainment said on Monday.

The band’s fourth studio album, "The Decade", will be released on September 5 at 6 p.m., nearly six years after their last full album, "The Book of Us: Entropy", which came out in October 2019.

To kick off the celebrations, Day6 will hold a solo concert titled "Day6 10th Anniversary Tour " on August 30 and 31 at the Goyang Sports Complex north of Seoul. The venue will be the first of its kind for a South Korean band to headline, marking a milestone for the group. All four members, Sungjin, Young K, Wonpil, and Dowoon, are scheduled to perform.

The anniversary project was announced through a video titled "Day6 10th Anniversary Announcement: The Decade of Us", which was posted on the band's official social media channels at midnight on August 4. Additional details about the upcoming anniversary concert will be released through Day6's social media, the agency said.

Day6 debuted on September 7, 2015. Over the past decade, the group has carved out a distinct identity within the K-pop scene with their band format and emotionally driven music, earning a loyal fanbase known as "My Day".

In May, the band released a digital single titled "Maybe Tomorrow", which reached the top ranks of domestic music streaming charts. That same month, they drew approximately 96,000 fans to a six-show run at the KSPO Dome in Seoul as part of their "3rd World Tour ". In July, they hosted their fourth official fan meeting, "Day6 4th Fanmeeting ", over two weekends at Jamsil Indoor Gymnasium.
