SS501 comeback photos released

DSP Media on Friday released the individual photographs of the remaining three members of SS501 -- namely Kim Hyun-joong, Kim Kyu-jong and Heo Young-saeng -- ahead of their comeback next week.

DSP had revealed photos of Kim Hyung-joon and Park Jung-min two days ago, giving fans a closer look at their idols who would be returning to the local music scene for the first time in a year and seven months.

All five members were seen wearing heavy smoky make-up, as they did in the cover of the jacket for their new mini-album "Rebirth".

The new album will be available in a regular and special edition, which comes with a 100-page organizer, photobook and poster. The special edition, available in limited numbers, will be released first on October 20 and the regular version two days later.

SS501, who debuted in June 2005, is one of the most popular K-pop acts in Asia. The group has had numerous hits singles in Korea and Japan, and some of the members have branched out to acting and musical theater as well.
