TXT is getting ready to enter a whole new era. On May 9, the group will drop their fourth Korean EP, titled minisode 2: Thursday’s Child. To celebrate its release, TXT will embark on their first-ever world tour this summer. If you’re just as excited as I am for the group’s comeback, here’s what you should know about their upcoming EP.

Minisode 2: Thursday’s Child will mark TXT’s first project of 2022. The group previously made their comeback in November 2021 with the release of their debut Japanese EP, Chaotic Wonderland. Before that, TXT’s last Korean project, The Chaos Chapter: FIGHT OR ESCAPE, dropped in August 2021. The album featured the group’s hit single “LO$ER=LO♡ER.” The track and its accompanying music video saw SOOBIN, YEONJUN, BEOMGYU, TAEHYUN, and HUENINGKAI rocking an edgier aesthetic. Thanks to recent teasers for the new EP, it seems the guys will continue to explore a darker concept with minisode 2: Thursday’s Child.
