RIIZE Drops Surreal Teasers for First Full Album ‘ODYSSEY’

🚀 RIIZE Drops Surreal Teasers for First Full Album ‘ODYSSEY’

RIIZE is headed to space — literally and conceptually.

At midnight on May 10, SM Entertainment’s rising boy group RIIZE unveiled the first teaser images for their highly anticipated 1st full-length album ‘ODYSSEY’ via their official SNS and Odyssey Instagram account. The visuals instantly caught fans’ attention with their cinematic quality and surreal, sci-fi-inspired concept.

📸 Teasers That Redefine Visuals

The newly released teaser photos depict the RIIZE members in a dreamlike odyssey from Earth into space, blending fantasy film aesthetics with powerful “main character” energy. The concept aligns with their ongoing “Realtime Odyssey” narrative — showing RIIZE expanding their world and presence as the ultimate “ONE TOP” K-pop act of 2025.

Each shot highlights the group’s growth story, starting from Earth and transcending into the cosmos, echoing their journey to stardom.

🌌 Earth Archive vs. Universe Archive

The teasers were released under two themes: ‘EARTH Archive’ and ‘UNIVERSE Archive’. Both were filmed inside a massive 500-pyeong virtual production studio equipped with state-of-the-art LED displays and In-Camera VFX (ICVFX) technology. Using real-time rendered backgrounds and camera-tracking techniques, RIIZE’s visual storytelling pushes the limits of K-pop production.

The result? A teaser that feels more like a trailer for a blockbuster space fantasy than a music comeback — and fans are here for it.

🎧 ‘ODYSSEY’ Track Highlights

RIIZE’s first full-length album ‘ODYSSEY’ will be released on May 19. The album features 10 tracks, including the title song ‘Fly Up’ and the pre-released track ‘Bag Bad Back’, which soared into the top ranks of YouTube Korea’s trending videos.

Also included is the fan-favorite ‘잉걸 (Ember to Solar)’, further fueling anticipation for what could be the group’s biggest era yet.
