South Korean boy group RIIZE have unveiled a new cinematic trailer showcasing their upcoming second single, Famewhich will be released on November 24th at 6pm KST.
The official teaser and release announcement of the new single arrived on November 3 at midnight KST, marking the official countdown to the boy band’s highly anticipated return after six months since their first album.
The two minute and 40 second theatrical trailer characteristics the six members captured in a large mansion located in London, United Kingdom, with expressions alluding to their personal struggles. The visual presentation showcases a monochromatic aesthetic, with each member appearing contemplative amidst the lavish setting. The production beautifully conveys a paradoxical tension between calm and inner turmoil, offering what has been described as the group’s signature “Visual RISE”.
Fame marks RIIZE’s second physical single following their debut single Get a guitar in September 2023, and their first new album about six months after their first full album, Odyssey, released in May 2025. The new single consists of three tracks that delve into the emotional complexities behind their journey into the spotlight.
The title song and the accompaniment tracks captures the anxiety and emptiness that members occasionally experience in the intensity of their careers, along with the passion that comes with it. This musical direction maintains the group’s original genre classification as “emotional pop”.
RIIZE achieved considerable commercial success with their debut album, Odysseywhich secured three million seller status and topped Circle’s monthly retail album chart. The album also demonstrated a strong international performance, claiming the top spot on China’s QQ Music digital album sales chart with “Platinum” certification, receiving “Gold” certification from the Recording Industry Association of Japan, and leading Oricon’s weekly overseas album chart. The group has secured numerous wins on Korean music shows during their promotions, establishing themselves as one of the fastest-growing artists in the industry.
Pre-orders for Fame start on November 3 at online and offline music stores worldwide. The release comes as RIIZE continues their North American “Riizing Loud” tour, which began in October with stops in major cities across the United States before concluding in Mexico City.
