Korean boy band MBLAQ will release their second Japanese single next month, according to their agency J.Tune Camp.

An official with J.Tune told 10Asia over the phone that MBLAQ's new Japanese album will go on sale in the country sometime in October while its title track has been chosen the main theme song for Japanese cartoon "Beelzebub" which has aired on Yomiuri TV since January.

"The reason that we haven't announced the title of MBLAQ's song or the release date is because it is their second Japanese single and we have yet to confirm on details with their rep in Japan," she explained.

She went onto say that MBLAQ will wrap up promotions for their current follow-up track “I Don’t Know,” from their third mini-album “MONA LISA” this week and start preparing for their upcoming activities in Japan set for late October.

The boys will then return to Korea to release a new album in November, the official added.

MBLAQ made their debut in 2009 with their single album "JUST BLAQ" and expanded their careers into Japan in June this year with "Your Luv." The song was used as the theme song for Japanese animation "Blade."
