It will be a very busy and eventful second half of the year for the K-pop boy group SEVENTEEN with a new album and world tour on the way.

SEVENTEEN's record label, PLEDIS Entertainment bared the second-half plans for the chart-topping group in a Weverse notice.

According to PLEDIS, the group is working on their 12th mini album, which is set to be released this October.

The new songs from the upcoming album will be performed on their Right Here World Tour, which will also start in October.

In a separate Weverse post, PLEDIS announced that the world tour will kick off at Goyang Stadium in South Korea on October 12 and 13.

Aside from Korea, SEVENTEEN will also hold shows in the U.S., Japan, and other parts of Asia, as part of the new tour.

Additionally, PLEDIS said the group will go on a dome tour and will release a single album in Japan later this year.

"The members of SEVENTEEN are determined to connect with CARATs from different regions through their music and performances. Please send your love and support to SEVENTEEN, returning with a new release and a world tour after two years," the label added.

Last January, SEVENTEEN was in the Philippines for the FOLLOW Tour and played two shows at the Philippine Sports Stadium in Bulacan.

SEVENTEEN released their best-of album, 17 Is Right Here, last April, which featured four new songs, “MAESTRO,” “LALALI,” “Spell,” and “Cheers to youth.”
