Members HONGJOONG and MINGI once again participated in writing lyrics for all five tracks on the EP, continuing their consistent creative involvement in ATEEZ’s music and storytelling.

The official music video for “BAD” further expands that immersive world through intense choreography, cinematic visuals, and high-energy performance sequences. The video also features rising Hollywood actress Chase Infiniti, known for her breakout role in Apple TV+’s Presumed Innocent, as well as her outstanding performances in One Battle After Another and The Testaments. Her appearance adds another cinematic layer to the visually ambitious music video while highlighting ATEEZ’s growing global reach across entertainment and pop culture.
ATEEZ is also set to bring the new era directly to global audiences through a series of major international festival appearances this summer.
