Global K-pop icon Big Bang is gearing up for a new album.

“Big Bang’s new release will be unveiled shortly,” member Seungri announced on his live-broadcasting channel “Hello Seungri” on Naver V Live + on Wednesday. “I can’t disclose the specific details of the schedule, but we plan on sharing a very good new track with everyone.”

The group’s management agency YG Entertainment also confirmed the news Thursday.

“Despite their hectic schedules, Big Bang members have been preparing for a new album,” the company announced. “Lately, they have been working at the YG studio every day to wrap up the final stages of the album.”

In celebration of its 10th debut anniversary, Big Bang has been carrying out various activities -- including concerts, exhibitions and a movie release -- at home and abroad in recent months.

The currently untitled album is scheduled to be released sometime this year.
