The group FORESTELLA has changed the release date of its 4th full-length album to April 23.
The agency BEAT INTERACTIVE stated on April 8:
“The release date of FORESTELLA‘s 4th full-length album, “THE LEGACY”, has been changed from the initially planned 20th to the upcoming 23rd. FORESTELLA inevitably decided to change the release date in order to guarantee optimal sound quality and a high level of perfection. In particular, the title song is produced using an analog mixing method to offer a differentiated sound.”
FORESTELLA is building anticipation by unveiling the tracklist image of “THE LEGACY” via its official social media on April 6. According to the tracklist, a total of 12 songs will be included in this 4th full-length album, including the title song “Armageddon”, the pre-release track “Still here”, as well as “Nella notte”, “Etude”, “In un’altra vita”, “그리고 봄”, “꽃병”, “Parla piu piano”, “Scarborough fair”, “Now we are free”, “Snow globe”, and “The show must go on”.
In particular, member KANG HYUNGHO (Hyungho) took on the role of producer, deeply expressing the musical color unique to FORESTELLA and raising the overall level of perfection. To this was added the help of music director JANG JAEWON, who continually collaborates with FORESTELLA. Among these tracks, “그리고 봄” and “Snow globe”, initially released respectively as a single in 2024 and in the 2nd mini-album in 2023, are reborn in new versions in 2026.
In addition, all tracks are composed of pieces selected and revealed by FORESTELLA during its previous national tour and on the KBS 2TV show “BORN OF THE SONG”, thus receiving an enthusiastic response from fans early on. The organic musical flow and storytelling that extend from the concerts and the stage to this 4th full-length album demonstrate the meticulous planning of FORESTELLA, further strengthening the anticipation for this album.
Alongside the release of the 4th full-length album, FORESTELLA will offer fans a multitude of entertainment through a concert tour and an exhibition. From April 21 to May 2, for two weeks from Tuesday to Saturday, the exhibition “FRAGMENTS OF LEGACY” will be held at GALLERY VIT. in the Jongno district of Seoul. This exhibition will present works visually reinterpreting the emotions and narratives of the 12 songs of the 4th full-length album through collaborations with contemporary artists, offering an experience connecting traces of the past to current perspectives.
The concert tour for FORESTELLA‘s 4th full-length album, “THE LEGACY: SYMPHONY”, will begin in Ilsan on April 25 and 26, then continue in Seoul on May 9 and 10, in Incheon on June 6 and 7, and in Busan on July 4 and 5. Music director PARK IN YOUNG (Inyoung), who directed the arrangement work for the national anthem, will ensure the direction, and a collaboration with the orchestra specialized in theater music, the PRIME PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA, will complete FORESTELLA‘s first concert in “real orchestral sound” since its debut.
