Coed quartet KARD will release its sixth EP "ICKY" on May 23 as the band's first album in 11 months after the last EP "Re:" was released last June.

A poster showing the four members walking down a narrow street was unveiled, but details other than the title of the album and the release date were not revealed.

KARD released its digital single "Without You" last month, a track based on Tropical-Latin melodies mixed with EDM sounds that members J.Seph and BM wrote together.

Members of KARD have been actively taking part in writing the music and creating the choreography for the group.

KARD debuted in July 2017 with its EP "Hola Hola." The four-member coed group consists of members J.Seph, BM, Somin and Jiwoo. The band, commonly considered to be more popular overseas than in Korea, has held multiple performances in the United States, Mexico, Chile, Columbia, Argentina, Brazil and others.

KARD most recently performed at the MIK Festival Paris 2023 in France in February and at the Sound Check Festival 2023 in Thailand in March.
