After announcing their return to the local music with a new album, TVXQ! has surprised fans once again with news of their first ever world tour.

SM Entertainment announced in a press release Thursday that TVXQ! will kick off their highly anticipated tour dubbed, "TVXQ! LIVE WORLD TOUR 'Catch Me,'" which will take place at Seoul's Olympic Stadium on November 17 and 18.

They boys are expected to take their world tour to China, Thailand and other countries on later dates, while this will be their first tour in four years after "THE 3rd ASIA TOUR CONCERT 'MIROTIC'" in February 2009.

SM also revealed that TVXQ!'s U-Know Yunho and Max Changmin will grace the stage for joint and solo performances, and promote their new album "Catch Me" which is slated to become available online on September 24 and hit stores two days later.

TVXQ!'s new song "Catch Me" is said to be a trendy Dutch-electronic tune, which captures strong beats and melody of dubstep, while the firm gave fans a glimpse of their upcoming concept with teaser photos of the two members.

Till now, the singing duo has been busy with their four-month long tour in Japan and promoting their single "Android."
