K-Pop Comebacks November 2026: Every Date, in Your Time Zone

Midnight in New York on Friday, November 13 is 2 p.m. in Seoul, the minute ATEEZ’s GOLDEN HOUR : Part.6 is due out, per Soompi. In October, New York midnight fell at 1 p.m. in Seoul. The US leaves daylight saving time on November 1, so every K-pop release this month lands an hour earlier on American clocks than in October.

Here is where the K-pop comebacks for November 2026 stand. TWS and xikers have November 2, RESCENE November 3, ATEEZ November 13 and TXT November 16, each dated by an agency or an official channel, and Stray Kids add a Japanese mini album on November 25. ENHYPEN, ITZY’s Chaeryeong and KEYVITUP have the month but no day. Every row was checked against its source on October 9.

K-pop comebacks November 2026, converted to your clock

The time table. The US is on standard time from November 1 and the UK on GMT since October 25, so 6 PM KST is 4 AM in New York, 1 AM in Los Angeles, 9 AM in London, 5 PM in Manila and 2:30 PM in India. Three of the six releases have a time on record; where the source gives none, the row says “not announced” rather than assuming 6 PM.

Date (KST)	Artist	Release	KST	New York (ET)	Los Angeles (PT)	London	Manila	India

PLEDIS Entertainment announced TWS’s date at midnight KST on October 7, Soompi reports. xikers posted the six-track list for their eighth mini album on official social channels the same night; Star News gives 6 p.m. on November 2. THE MUZE Entertainment confirmed RESCENE’s date to Soompi on September 18, and Star News had the title four days later. Kpop Official’s schedule lists RESCENE at 6 PM, but neither report gives a time. BIGHIT MUSIC announced TXT’s six-track album on September 28, per Soompi. SUIATSU is a Japan release, per Sports Kyunghyang, so it sits in the table but not in the Korean count below.

Why ATEEZ go at 2 PM while the rest wait for 6

The Korea Herald explained the split in 2025, in a piece republished by Asia News Network. When the US and global markets are the target, an industry official told the paper, a release is timed for midnight there: 1 p.m. KST during US daylight saving time, 2 p.m. otherwise. Billboard’s charts run on Eastern time and track Friday to Thursday, the Herald noted, so a Friday-afternoon release in Seoul opens a full chart week. Six o’clock is for the home market: more listeners are on Korean music platforms after 6 p.m. than during work and school hours.

ATEEZ’s slot fits that rule to the minute. Neither report says why KQ Entertainment chose the hour; Star News, which calls GOLDEN HOUR : Part.6 a “new album” without naming the format, notes the group has topped the Billboard 200 three times. It is also the only timed release that changes day on the table: on the US West Coast it arrives at 9 p.m. on Thursday, November 12.

The November count, and what surrounds it

The count, as of October 9. Five Korean releases are dated, three acts have a month without a day, and three entries are listed or teased without confirmation. Three of the five dated releases fall on Mondays: TWS and xikers on the 2nd, TXT on the 16th. In our October calendar the Mondays on the 12th, 19th and 26th carried eight releases between them, and I called that clustering. November half-supports it: the dates sit on two of its five Mondays, and the 9th, 23rd and 30th are still empty.

The event overlay. TXT play three nights at Seoul’s KSPO Dome on November 13–15 and release PERFECT STORM the next day; their ACT : TOMORROW concert film reaches cinemas first, at HYBE CINE FEST 2026 from October 24 to 31. November 13 is also ATEEZ’s release day. Stray Kids play three shows at Tokyo Dome on November 6–8, two and a half weeks before SUIATSU. The MAMA Awards run November 20–21 at Kyocera Dome Osaka, per CJ ENM, and the Korea Herald places ENHYPEN “sometime in the latter half of the month.”

Month confirmed, no date, and the releases only listed

ENHYPEN’s agency, BELIFT LAB, told the Korea Herald on September 29 that the group is “preparing for a comeback with November as the target” and will give details “once the schedule is finalized.” JYP Entertainment confirmed to Soompi in August that Chaeryeong of ITZY is preparing a solo album for November. KEYVITUP, one of this year’s April debuts, is working toward a mid-November album, Incode Entertainment told Star News.

When	Artist	Release	On record
Month confirmed by the agency, no date
November	ENHYPEN	New album, format not announced	BELIFT LAB, Sept 29 (Korea Herald)
November	Chaeryeong (ITZY)	Solo debut album	JYP Entertainment, Aug 27 (Soompi)
Mid-November	KEYVITUP	Album	Incode Entertainment, Sept 21 (Star News)
Listed or teased, not confirmed for November
Nov 20 (listed)	YVES	5th EP Cute & Anxiety	Kpop Official’s schedule; no label announcement found
Q4	UNCHILD	Single Ting Ting	High Up Entertainment, Sept 29: the “aim of a fourth-quarter comeback” after the September 2 date was postponed (Sports Kyunghyang)
Q4	Hearts2Hearts; Taeyeon, Jaehyun, Yesung, NCT DREAM; Changmin, Xiaojun, NCT WISH, an EXO unit	A single; full albums; mini albums	SM Entertainment’s Q4 lineup, Aug 5 (Soompi)

We found no label post behind Kpop Official’s November 20 for YVES, and SM’s lineup names quarters, not months: any of it can still land in November.

Mina’s Take

Two clocks run this calendar, and ATEEZ are alone on the American one. Every other timed release sits at 6 PM KST: 5 PM in Manila, 4 AM in New York, 1 AM in Los Angeles. If you stream from the Americas, November asks for an alarm or a catch-up the next morning. TXT walk off a three-night KSPO Dome weekend into a Monday release, which reads as a plan for the home crowd, not for a chart week. ENHYPEN are the open slot. My call: when BELIFT LAB dates the album, it lands on a Monday. If it lands on a Friday at 2 PM KST instead, ATEEZ have company on the Billboard clock and I read November wrong.
