"Stuck in the Middle" serves as the pre-release from Babymonster's upcoming EP, titled "Babymons7er," scheduled for release on April 1. Ahyun, who took a hiatus for health reasons, is set to join promotional activities for the new mini-album. She made an appearance in the teaser video uploaded on Monday.

In separate news, the boy band Tempest conducted a media showcase in Seoul to coincide with the release of their fifth EP, titled "Tempest Voyage." The group's previous single album, "Into the Tempest," released approximately six months ago, earned them their first trophy from a television music chart show.

The seven-member group, attributing their success to their fans, expressed gratitude and stated their intention to reciprocate the love with their new album, marking the final installment of their "Tempest" series. However, the new album will be promoted by only six members, as Yue Hua Entertainment, the management company, decided to suspend Hwarang from all activities due to controversy surrounding a club visit.

Despite acknowledging the pressure, the bandmates, led by Lew, affirmed their commitment to doing their best and not causing concern for their fans. Hwarang, despite the suspension, contributed to the new album by writing the lyrics for the main track "Lighthouse" and B-side tracks "BOK" and "Slow Motion."
