As the best-selling K-Pop group from a non-“Big Four” label, ATEEZ has accomplished many firsts in their time together. Starting as a group of eight talented and passionate guys with little budget and only their dreams and determination to drive them forward, they’ve now proven over and over again that they’re a K-Pop group to be reckoned with, and their fans couldn’t be prouder.

Following the hugely successful North American leg of ATEEZ’s ongoing Towards The Light: Will To Power world tour and their multi-day performance at Japan’s Summer Sonic event, and amidst their ongoing fanmeetings taking place in Japan with ATINY’S VOYAGE : FROM A TO Z, it was revealed that Billboard Korea will be releasing the first issue of their “Biograpical Dictionary”.

This encyclopedia of Korean music artists is described as, “a special edition in both Korean and English, it will be an attractive guide to identifying the trends of the K-Pop artists who have received the most attention of the year as selected by Billboard. Along with the unique visuals of K-Pop artists that have never been seen anywhere else, it contains reviews of top-tier K-Pop stars analyzed by professional columnists.”

The first issue of this encyclopedia will include 16 K-Pop artists: aespa, ATEEZ, BLACKPINK, BTS, ENHYPEN, FIFTY FIFTY, (G)I-DLE, ITZY, LE SSERAFIM, NCT 127, NCT DREAM, NewJeans, SEVENTEEN, Stray Kids, TXT, and TWICE. Notably, ATEEZ is the only boy group on the list not from a “Big Four” label (which includes SM Entertainment, JYP Entertainment, YG Entertainment, and HYBE Labels).

The “Biographical Dictionary” is set to release on September 9, and it’s bound to be a fascinating read, especially since ATEEZ is included in the line-up!

Here are some ATINY reactions to the exciting news.

The dictionary is available for pre-order on several different sites for around $20-23 USD, so make sure to get yours!
