Korean idols U-Kiss will return to the local music scene with their fifth mini-album next week, according to their agency NH Media on Wednesday.
"The album will go on sale on March 30 while the songs will become available online at midnight the day before," an official from NH told 10Asia over the phone.
The official further explained that the boys will give their comeback performance on cable music channel Mnet's "M! CountDown" on March 31 with their two new members.
Earlier this month, NH replaced members Ki-bum and Alexander, terminating their contract with Ki-bum while maintaining it with Alexander who will pursue a solo career. The agency then introduced new members Hoon and AJ who will take their place.
U-Kiss (Ubiquitous Korean International Super Star) made their debut with single album "New Generation" in September 2008. They have produced a number of hit songs including "Shut Up," "Manmanhani," and "Round and Round."
They have also branched out into the music market in Japan, holding their first solo concert in Japan which was attended by over 5,000 fans late last year.
