ALL(H)OURS released the official video for “HOP” on 25 August 2026, ahead of the mini album it comes from. That album, UNBOUND, is the group’s sixth, and it is dated for 10 September.

Six mini albums, counted in public

Korean groups work in mini albums — 미니앨범, the local word for an EP — and they number them in public. Billing UNBOUND as a sixth mini is a plain statement of career stage: five cycles behind them, this one next. The format usually runs four to six tracks, which is about what a group needs to fill the few weeks it spends promoting before the next release. Full-length albums, 정규, are counted on a separate ledger and often held back for anniversaries, so a group can be years into its career with a long run of minis and no 정규 at all.

About this release

“HOP” belongs to UNBOUND, the sixth ALL(H)OURS mini album, scheduled for 10 September 2026 at 6pm KST. The video went up on the group’s official channel before that date. The description names no producer, writer or featured artist — only the album title and the release time, which is normal for a video posted ahead of the record.

Watching from outside Korea

Korean albums arrive at 6pm KST rather than at local midnight. For UNBOUND that means roughly 10am in London and 5am in New York, still on 10 September. If you follow first-week numbers, count from Seoul’s clock, not your own.
