RIIZE to Premiere 'ODYSSEY' Online Today (May 14th) at 8 PM KST
RIIZE’s first full album, ‘ODYSSEY’, will finally be unveiled with an online premiere.
According to their agency, SM Entertainment, ‘RIIZE <ODYSSEY> BRIIZE FIRST PREMIERE’ will be exclusively available online to members of the Weverse RIIZE community on May 14th at 8 PM KST. The premiere will feature all 10 tracks from RIIZE’s first full album, presented as a “cinematic film” with a runtime of approximately 40 minutes.
This premiere is designed as a grand narrative following RIIZE’s team color of ‘growth and realization’, and will be composed of various formats including music videos, track videos, animation, and skits. It’s not simply a collection of videos, but a highly polished video experience akin to a full-length film, generating significant anticipation.
The premiere will follow the album’s tracklist order, starting with ‘Odyssey’, then ‘Bag Bad Back’, ‘Ember to Solar’, the title track ‘Fly Up’, ‘Show Me Love’, ‘Passage’, ‘Midnight Mirage’, ‘The End of the Day’, ‘Inside My Love’, and concluding with ‘Another Life’. This sequential presentation is expected to enhance the immersive experience.
Previously, two teaser videos were released, previewing the premiere and the album release. These videos, including a trailer reminiscent of a blockbuster movie in scale and detail, and a monologue video showcasing the members preparing for the album, have already generated considerable buzz. The premiere is expected to receive a similarly positive response.
Meanwhile, RIIZE’s first full album, ‘ODYSSEY’, is an album that firmly defines RIIZE’s identity as artists and is scheduled for release on May 19th.
