Brace yourselves, CARATs, because SEVENTEEN has made another comeback! The group dropped a new special album called ; [Semicolon], marking their third release of 2020 and their fourth album overall. So if you're a fan, you need to read SEVENTEEN's ; [Semicolon] album details in order to not miss a single thing about their schedule this time around.

SEVENTEEN's album details reveal this comeback is huge, so check out their schedule below.

Semicolon Album Concept

You'll love SEVENTEEN's album concept because it's so unique. Just like its title implies, ; [Semicolon] is inspired by what a semicolon represents.

"In a sentence, a semicolon allows a momentary break to enable seamless continuity and unhindered explanation," SEVENTEEN explained in a press release. "Youth also calls for a temporary break, which paves the way for longevity. The semicolon is not a symbol of the end. Rather, it represents the eternity of our journey in life. It gives the young generation a moment of laughter through the melody and instills hope to appreciate the true joy of living in the moment."

Unlike Heng:garæ, which represents a "journey of youth," ; [Semicolon] is also described as an "invitation for youth."

Semicolon Video Teaser

CARATs can get more of an idea of SEVENTEEN's next concept through their ; [Semicolon] video teaser. Throughout the video, the members enjoy their time together while sharing drinks and going bowling together. Some of the guys receive invitations that say "Work Hard" and "Rest Hard," which could reference their concept of youth calling for a "temporary break."

"HOME;RUN" Music Video

On Oct. 19, SEVENTEEN returned with their Semicon lead single "HOME;RUN," along with a retro-themed music video for the track. In the clip, the guys search for a missing diamond in poker clubs and pool bars. Fans also noticed subtle references toward the group's previous music videos.
