RIIZE joins the November comeback lineup, which includes i-dle’s Miyeon, TXT’s Yeonjun, ALLDAY PROJECT, and more. They officially confirmed the release of their second single album titled “FAME” in late November.
On November 3, SM Entertainment dropped the cinematic teaser for their upcoming single, “FAME,” on all social media platforms.
The now six-member group returns just six months after their record-breaking first full-length album.
The cinematic teaser released alongside the news hints at a sleek and confident concept. RIIZE’s new single “FAME” is set to drop on November 24, 2025, at 6 p.m. KST.
This comeback follows the massive success of their first studio album, “Odyssey,” which was released in May. The album was a significant milestone in the group’s career, and sold 1,797,267 copies in its first week. This made “Odyssey” one of the highest first-week sellers of 2025 at the time.
Plus, it also broke RIIZE’s own previous record of 1,255,015 copies set by their debut mini-album, “RIIZING.” The title track “Fly Up” earned the group several music show wins, including Show Champion, Music Bank, and Inkigayo.
In addition, RIIZE has spent the past several months connecting with fans through their first-ever concert tour. Their ‘RIIZING LOUD’ tour kicked off in Seoul in July and included several live performances in Asia. The group has already performed in cities like Hong Kong, Tokyo, Bangkok, and Manila, with more stops planned through early 2026.
The North American leg of the tour is scheduled to begin in late October. However, it made headlines after one U.S. show, in Duluth, Georgia, was unexpectedly cancelled in mid-October. Reports suggested low ticket sales may have been the reason.
Despite the minor setback, RIIZE continues to set new records and expand their global activities. The group revealed plans to hold encore concerts at Tokyo Dome in February 2026. Performing at the Tokyo Dome is considered a major accomplishment for K-pop artists.
Now, RIIZE will wrap up 2025 with their second single, “FAME,” arriving on November 24.
