TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT) is ushering in a new era of energy and emotion in Japan.

The group officially launched their new Japanese chapter at midnight on October 20th with the release of their third full-length album, 'Starkissed,' accompanied by the music video for its title track, “Can’t Stop.”

'Starkissed' boasts a collection of 12 tracks, blending fresh Japanese originals with reimagined hits. The album features the powerful title song “Can’t Stop,” alongside other notable tracks like “Where Do You Go?” and “SSS (Sending Secret Signals).” Fans will also be treated to Japanese versions of “Beautiful Strangers” and “Song of the Star,” originally from the group’s fourth Korean studio album, 'The Name Chapter: TOGETHER,' released in July.

The title track, “Can’t Stop,” delivers a compelling message about awakening the strength to save the world the moment you call someone’s name. This electro-funk anthem, layered with vibrant synths and a pulsing rhythm, perfectly captures TXT’s signature dual charm—fiery energy and delicate emotion. Their vocals glide over the high-tempo groove, transforming the song into both an anthem and an emotional release, embodying the ambitious, youthful, and cinematic essence that defines TXT.

The accompanying music video, released via HYBE LABELS’ YouTube channel, showcases each member's individuality through vivid, sport-inspired scenes. Soobin and Beomgyu display dynamic chemistry on the tennis court, Yeonjun exudes playful confidence in a bowling alley, Taehyun channels raw passion as a boxer, and Hueningkai rocks out as a drummer. Each scene reflects a different facet of TXT’s multifaceted identity, with the video building towards a finale where the energy bursts into full motion—a visual metaphor for the group’s unstoppable drive.

TXT’s Japanese promotions are set to be extensive through the end of the year. Following their appearance on TBS’s 'CDTV LIVE! LIVE!' on October 20th, the group is scheduled to feature on NHK’s 'Utacon' (Oct. 21), TV Asahi’s 'Music Station' (Oct. 24), and NHK’s 'Venue101' (Oct. 25). A special showcase event on October 22nd will offer fans a chance for direct interaction.

Furthermore, next month will see TXT launch the Japan leg of their fourth world tour, 'TOMORROW X TOGETHER WORLD TOUR ‘ACT : TOMORROW’.' They are slated to perform dome concerts in Saitama (Nov. 15–16), Aichi (Dec. 6–7), and Fukuoka (Dec. 27–28).

With 'Starkissed,' TXT reaffirms their position as one of global pop’s most dynamic forces, masterfully blending compelling storytelling, captivating performance, and unshakable passion.

Korean netizens are expressing immense excitement for TXT's comeback, with comments like 'Finally, a comeback!' and 'The quality of the Japanese album is insane!' flooding online communities.
