On the 8th, the boy group B1A4 (Be One, For All) will release their mini 8th album 'CONNECT,' filled with self-composed songs, marking the beginning of their activities in 2024.
B1A4 will release the mini 8th album 'CONNECT' through various online music platforms at 6 p.m. KST on the 8th.

The album, expressing gratitude and precious feelings towards fans throughout, promises that the dream-like reality will continue without ending, using music as a medium to convey B1A4's unique language.
The title track 'REWIND,' which garnered enthusiastic reactions from fans with just a partial pre-release, was written and composed by member CNU. This new jack swing genre song is based on a playful bass, synthesizer, and groovy drum rhythm. With the message "I rewind time to meet you again, whom I met in my dream last night," this song is expected to deliver intense addictiveness with its dynamic sound and deepened vocals by B1A4.
In addition to the title track 'REWIND,' the album includes a total of 5 tracks, including (You I Met Over Time), 'PAUSE,' '네가 내 이름을 부를 때' (When You Call My Name), and '이별은 없는 거야' (There Is No Goodbye).

The final track, '이별은 없는 거야' (There Is No Goodbye), has the participation of all members in the lyrics, capturing B1A4's unique emotions.
