HYUKOH Announce New Album, 33, First US Tour Dates Since 2019

South Korean indie stalwarts HYUKOH are set to reemerge on the global music scene with their upcoming album titled '33,' scheduled for release on November 25. This marks their first solo album launch in six years and follows a series of numerically themed EPs that have defined their evolving sound.

The band, widely regarded for blending a distinctive musical vision with a restless creative spirit, continues this tradition with '33,' which also features cover art by artist Minjeong An. The project arrives after a period of collaboration with Taiwanese band Sunset Rollercoaster in 2024 and 2025, reflecting HYUKOH’s ongoing engagement with cross-cultural musical experimentation.

Ahead of the album release, HYUKOH has introduced three singles that showcase their sonic diversity. August brought the funk-infused "Godspeed!" followed by the energetic, beat-driven "KoK" and the bright, stylish "losing day." These tracks offer a glimpse into the band’s dynamic range and hint at the creative directions explored on the full album.

In conjunction with the album announcement, HYUKOH disclosed plans for a multi-leg tour stretching across Asia, North America, and the United Kingdom in spring 2027. The tour commences in Seoul on January 16 and 17 at Olympic Hall, marking a homecoming before the group ventures overseas.

The North American segment represents HYUKOH’s first series of US performances since their 2019 Coachella appearance, underscoring a significant return to the American live circuit. The US itinerary kicks off in Los Angeles at The Novo on March 27, followed by shows in San Francisco, Seattle, Knoxville, Chicago, and concluding in Brooklyn, New York, on April 9 at the Brooklyn Paramount.

Beyond the United States, the tour includes stops in Taipei’s Music Center on February 20, Tokyo’s Toyosu Pit on March 16, Toronto’s Danforth Music Hall on April 7, and London's Troxy on June 16. Additional dates are anticipated as the band expands the itinerary.

These performances are expected to spotlight material from '33' alongside selections from their earlier works, including their well-received 2020 EP 'through love.' The forthcoming shows also offer fans an opportunity to experience HYUKOH’s growth since their last solo release and their collaborative projects.

Ticket availability is managed through Ticketmaster, indicating a broad-scale promotional effort to engage their international fanbase. The tour’s diverse locations reflect HYUKOH’s sustained appeal across continents and their commitment to reconnecting with audiences worldwide.

While further specifics about the album’s thematic content and production details remain limited, the band’s trajectory suggests a continued exploration of genre-blending indie rock characterized by artistic innovation. The release of '33' and the accompanying tour underscore HYUKOH’s ongoing influence as a prominent force within South Korea's indie music landscape and their expanding footprint abroad.
