DAY6 is making a powerful return with their 4th full-length album The DECADE, released on September 5 at 6 p.m. KST across music platforms. This comeback comes nearly six years after their previous studio album, carrying double significance as it celebrates the band's 10th anniversary.
A Decade of Music, A New Chapter Ahead
The album's title draws from the word "decade," symbolizing both reflection on the past 10 years and the beginning of a new journey. With 10 tracks in total, including double title songs Bus of Dreams and INSIDE OUT, the record captures themes of love, hope, and life's many moments. Other notable tracks include Don't Let the Sun Rise and My Way.
The members expressed gratitude for their decade-long career, with Sungjin calling the record "a special album to commemorate 10 years," and Young K describing it as "both a look back and the start of a new chapter." Wonpil added that it would be "a meaningful record to revisit years later," while Dowoon likened it to "a party with My Day after 10 years."
Double Title Tracks to Showcase Contrasting Colors
For the first time, DAY6 is presenting two lead singles. Bus of Dreams conveys the determination to hold onto dreams even when shaken by reality, while INSIDE OUT portrays a bold confession of love. The band explained they chose both songs to represent their dual musical identity—balancing familiarity with fresh experimentation.
A Decade with My Day
Since debuting with Congratulations in 2015, DAY6 has become known as "the band that sings every moment," performing at iconic venues including KSPO DOME and Gocheok Sky Dome. Most recently, they achieved a milestone by holding their first outdoor solo concert in Goyang during their DAY6 10th Anniversary Tour <The DECADE>.
Reflecting on the journey, the members unanimously credited their fans, My Day, as the driving force behind their music. Young K defined them as "love," Sungjin as "friends," and Wonpil as "life companions." All members emphasized their desire to continue walking alongside fans for the next decade and beyond.
Looking Forward
As they embark on their next chapter, DAY6 hopes to keep exploring new sounds while staying true to their identity. From EDM-infused band tracks to heartfelt ballads, the members promised to challenge themselves musically while prioritizing happiness, health, and shared moments with My Day.
The DECADE marks not only a milestone of endurance but also a promise of longevity, as DAY6 opens a new chapter in their journey with fans worldwide.
