SEOUL, May 23 (Yonhap) -- Sibling duo AKMU will release their new album 'Love Episode' on the 3rd of next month, according to an announcement made by their agency YG Entertainment on the 23rd.

YG revealed the album release through an emotional teaser on their official social media channels the day before.

AKMU first captured the public's attention by winning the SBS audition program 'K-pop Star Season 2' in 2012-2013, making their official debut in 2014. Since then, they have produced numerous hits, including '200%', 'How Can I Love The Heartbreak' and 'Love Lee'.

The duo particularly garnered significant attention with their releases 'Summer Episode' in 2017 and 'Next Episode' in 2021, the latter of which included philosophical themes.

YG stated, "The new album will feature songs centered around the theme of love, presented with AKMU’s unique emotional touch that is both straightforward and comforting for everyone."

Celebrating their 10th anniversary this year, AKMU will also hold a 10th anniversary concert titled '10VE' at the KSPO Dome in Seoul Olympic Park on the 15th and 16th of next month.
