The limited-edition collaboration will be unveiled on December 8.

Separately, the group was awarded “Top K-Pop Touring Artist,” a newly introduced category, from 2023 Billboard Music Awards.

The group is also facing renewed speculations that the foursome would renew their contract with the label, but only for its group activities. The management reiterated that it is “in talks” with the members.

Last week, the company said that discussions over the renewal is in progress through its quarterly report.
