ZE:A is preparing an album release as one member heads to the military.

On September 4, ZE:A officially announced their intentions to drop a "Best of" album in mid-September, highlighting the group's most popular songs.

At nearly a year and a half since the last album release from ZE:A, and the "Best of" album will include hits such as "Aftermath" and "Breathing Sound" along with new songs from the band.

This will be the last album from the full group for at least two years as member Ha Minwoo will begin his military service on September 15. Last month, he held a special fan meeting before his departure.

In recent months, the group members have made an effort to remain in the public eye through other activities, including Im Siwan's foray into acting (particularly his critically acclaimed performance in the tvN drama Misaeng), Park Hyungshik's participation in Laws of the Jungle, and Hwang Kwanghee's recent addition to the cast of the popular MBC variety show Infinite Challenge. 

While individual members' projects and appearances have raised awareness in the interim, this album will be another opportunity to bring them back into the spotlight.

Because it's been a while since the group churned out a hit single, they hope this album will allow them to regain the public's interest.

Stay tuned for more updates on ZE:A's upcoming release.
