The band hrtz.wav has proven its musical capabilities by releasing its second mini-album 'The Second Wave : MOMENTUM'. According to the agency Kakao Entertainment, this album has made its name on the top album charts in four iTunes regions, and the title track 'ALIVE (Feat. Sungchan of RIIZE)' achieved the feat of entering the TOP 10 in three countries, including Peru, Thailand, and Argentina.

The domestic response is also positive. The title track 'ALIVE' rose to 31st on the Melon HOT 100 chart, and all six tracks included in the album set a record by entering the chart. The synth-pop genre title track saw the members participate directly in writing the lyrics, and RIIZE's Sungchan added energy by contributing as a featured artist.

hrtz.wav plans to continue full-scale activities through major music broadcast stages, starting with KBS 2TV 'Music Bank' on the 11th, MBC 'Show! Music Core' on the 12th, and SBS 'Inkigayo' on the 13th.

The Korea Social Welfare Journal is striving to deliver press releases and welfare information more easily and accurately with the help of AI technology.
