October is set to be an exciting month for K-pop fans, as several idols have announced comebacks and debuts. Let's take a closer look at which idols are making their return or debut this October.

ONF: Returning with a Fresh Sound

After completing their military service, ONF is finally making a comeback. Despite having a relatively short hiatus due to simultaneous enlistments, ONF announced the release of their 7th mini-album, 'LOVE EFFECT', on October 4th. Known for delivering hit songs, fans are eagerly anticipating the new tracks ONF will unveil. Judging from the concept films released so far, the members exude a relaxed and carefree vibe, highlighting ONF's distinct refreshing sensibility. It's been a while, and fans can't wait to be surprised by ONF's new songs and stages.

NCT 127: A Powerful Comeback

Following a month of debuts by rookie boy groups, October sees the return of senior boy groups. NCT 127 has announced their comeback with the 5th full-length album, 'FACT CHECK', set to release on October 6th. In August, NCT 127 surprised fans with a video announcement during the NCT concert, 'NCT Nation', teasing their 5th full-length album. The continuous release of concept photos and videos perfectly encapsulates the essence of NCT 127. The subtitle of this album is 'Enigma', which has only heightened the curiosity of fans. Unfortunately, member Taeil will not be able to participate in this album due to a traffic accident earlier in August. We send our best wishes for his swift recovery.

(G)I-DLE: Making Waves with a U.S. Debut

On the same day as NCT 127's comeback, (G)I-DLE is making a significant move by releasing their U.S. EP album, 'HEAT', on October 6th (KST). The teasers exude an autumnal yet dreamy atmosphere, characteristic of (G)I-DLE's unique concepts and music. In July, they gave fans a taste of the album with the pre-release of 'I DO'. The music video depicted (G)I-DLE members transformed into extraterrestrial beings, sharing a beautiful love story with a young boy. However, the lyrics also portray the jealousy of a woman towards a man falling in love with another, adding a unique twist. With all songs in English, expectations are high for how 'HEAT' will perform in the U.S. market.

Jini: A Solo Debut with an Edgy Twist

Formerly a member of ENHYPEN, Jini is set to make her solo debut on October 11th. Her first mini-album, 'AN IRON HAND IN A VELVET GLOVE', seems to tell a story of inner strength juxtaposed with a gentle exterior. The concept photos released range from cynical to ethereal and mysterious, showcasing Jini's versatility. The trailer features Jini in a school uniform, displaying a rebellious spirit. Fans are already eager to hear what kind of music Jini will present with her solo debut.

TXT: A Highly Anticipated Comeback

Following in the footsteps of NCT 127, TXT is also making a return with their 3rd full-length album, 'Name of the Scene: FREEFALL', set to release on October 13th. This comes after a hiatus of over two years since their 2nd full-length repackage album released in 2021. In September, they collaborated with Brazilian pop star Anitta on 'Back for More', a trendy Latin-pop track, heightening expectations for the new album. With their track record of success, fans are curious about the records TXT might set with this album.

A New Era for (G)I-DLE's Soyeon

On October 13th, (G)I-DLE's Soyeon is set to embark on her first solo journey with the release of her debut solo album, 'Windy'. The teasers for the album hint at a powerful and dynamic concept, leaving fans excited to see Soyeon's solo career take off.

SEVENTEEN: Writing a New Chapter

Seventeen, the group known for consistently setting new records, has also announced their comeback. They will release their 11th mini-album, 'SEVENTEENTH HEAVEN', on October 23rd. In July, Seventeen announced their October comeback during their world tour stage, heightening fans' expectations. This album's concept revolves around a Seventeen festival, creating a promotional schedule that resembles a festival timetable.
