According to his agency, Abyss Company, on the 4th, Young Tak will release his third studio album, “GOGO,” on the 14th of next month.
Young Tak, who debuted in 2007, gained widespread popularity after finishing in second place on TV Chosun’s trot competition program “Mr. Trot” in 2020. As an all-around musician who writes his own lyrics and composes his own music, Young Tak continues to showcase a variety of musical genres, including trot, dance, and ballads.
This marks Young Tak’s first full-length album release in about three years, following his second album *FORM*, which featured the title track “Crazy,” in August 2023.
With “FORM,” Young Tak demonstrated his strong sales power by recording over 620,000 copies in first-week sales (sales within the first week of release). At the recently held “KM Chart Awards 2026,” he took first place in the “Fans’ Choice Best Popular Trot” category.
On the same day, his agency posted a comeback poster featuring a three-dimensional circular object reminiscent of a tire wheel on its official social media channels, heightening fans’ anticipation for the new album.
