On November 11, Pledis Entertainment announced that Seventeen will release their fourth Japanese single, 소비기한 (Expiration Date), on November 27. Ahead of the full album launch, the title track was revealed today, providing fans with a glimpse into the emotional depth of this new single.

The ballad 소비기한 (Expiration Date), meaning “expiration date” in Korean, is crafted by Seventeen’s in-house hitmakers Woozi and Bumzu. The song reflects on the bittersweet theme of the “validity of emotions,” pondering the longevity of feelings over time. With delicate string arrangements and mellow guitar sounds, the track encapsulates a heartfelt and poignant atmosphere, touching listeners with its gentle yet profound soundscape.

Adding to its appeal, 소비기한 (Expiration Date) has been chosen as the theme song for NHK’s Japanese drama Mirai no Watashi ni Butsukama Sareru!?! The song’s early inclusion in the show has already sparked excitement, as viewers have responded warmly to Seventeen’s unique sound gracing the drama’s scenes. This strategic integration raises anticipation around the potential achievements this single could bring for the group in Japan.

To accompany the release, official photos of all 13 Seventeen members together were also shared, highlighting their collective charm and the romantic appeal they bring to this ballad. These visuals capture the members in soft, elegant styles, matching the song’s nostalgic vibe and elevating the overall aesthetic of the album.

Following the single release, Seventeen is set to embark on an extensive dome tour across Japan, bringing their world tour to multiple major cities. The group will kick off the tour with two performances at the Vantelin Dome in Nagoya on November 29 and 30. They will then proceed to Tokyo Dome from December 4 to 5, Kyocera Dome Osaka on December 12 and again on December 14 and 15, and finally wrap up at Fukuoka’s PayPay Dome on December 19 and 21-22. This series of concerts is expected to further cement Seventeen’s popularity in Japan, stirring excitement across the nation with their live performances.

The upcoming single and tour reflect Seventeen’s ongoing growth as they continue to capture the hearts of fans worldwide. With 소비기한 (Expiration Date), the group showcases their versatility by diving into themes of love and the passage of time, appealing to the emotional sensitivities of their fans. Seventeen’s fans in Japan are eager to experience this sentimental journey, making the upcoming single and dome tour one of the most anticipated highlights of the year for Carats.
