TVXQ has started the countdown for their 20th Japanese debut anniversary activities. On the 6th, TVXQ released their regular album ‘ZONE’ to commemorate their 20th Japanese debut anniversary. They unveiled all tracks on various music platforms.
The album will also be released locally on the same day. ‘ZONE’ is a full-length album released to mark TVXQ’s 20th Japanese debut anniversary in April 2025. It contains a total of 20 songs, including 13 new songs and 7 previously released singles. The title track is ‘SWEET SURRENDER’, which was pre-released before the album launch. It carries a rich J-pop sensibility.
The album also includes TVXQ’s signature ballad ‘DEAREST’. A special tracklist has been prepared, with each album configuration including an additional bonus track. The Japanese versions of ‘Ravel’ and ‘Down’, tracks from their 9th album commemorating their 20th Korean debut anniversary released last December, are included.
To celebrate the release of this regular album, TVXQ will also appear on local broadcasts. They will perform their new songs on Nippon TV’s ‘Buzz Rhythm 02’ on the 8th and Fuji TV’s ‘Weekly Nainai Music’ on the 13th.
They will meet Japanese fans through concerts. Starting from the 29th, TVXQ will hold the ‘TVXQ 20th Anniversary Live Tour ~ ZONE ~’ in a total of 8 cities in Japan, bringing them closer to their fans.
