SEVENTEEN to release new album 'I Felt Helpless' this October

Save the date, CARATS! SEVENTEEN is gearing up for a comeback with their 12th Mini Album, “I Felt Helpless.”

The K-pop boy group announced the comeback through a 16-second trailer showing an empty train station and a screen with the album title on their official social media platforms.

The video also showed the words “Seventeen,” “Helpless,” and “Blue” on a sign board, and ended with the letters on the screen getting jumbled as a train arrives.

“I Felt Helpless” is set to be released on October 14, 6 p.m. KST.

The new album is a follow up to their “best-of” album, “17 Right Here,” released last April 2024.

The 13-member group is also set to hold their “Right Here” world tour, which will begin in Korea on October.

Earlier, PLEDIS Entertainment announced that member Jeonghan would not be able to participate in the promotion of the new album and the upcoming world tour due to his impending military enlistment on September 26. —Jiselle Anne Casucian/JCB, GMA Integrated News
