SF9 will come back with an EP on Jan. 8, the boy band's agency FNC Entertainment said.

The album will be the band's first in a year since its 12th EP "The Piece Of9" released on Jan. 9.

This will be the band's first group activity without Rowoon, who left the band in September to focus on his acting career.

The new EP will also drop without member Jaeyoon, as he is currently serving in the military to fulfill his mandatory service.

FNC Entertainment will disclose more details about the album in the coming days.

SF9 debuted in October 2016 under FNC Entertainment with single, "Feeling Sensation." The band originally started out as a nine-member band, but Rowoon left the band in September. The band currently consists of eight members: Yoo Tae-yang, Youngbin, Zuho, Hwiyoung, Inseong, Jaeyoon, Dawon and Chani. The boy band is known for tracks "So Beautiful" (2016), "O Sole Mio" (2017) "Round And Round" (2019), "Good Guy" (2020) and "Puzzle."
