(SM Entertainment)

Duo TVXQ will put out a special 10-track album titled “Rise as God” next Monday, ahead of Yunho’s enlistment in the army.

As one-half of the group, Yunho, is to join the army next Tuesday, the duo has prepared a special album to thank the fans who have supported them.

Two songs, each sung jointly by Yunho and Changmin, will be the lead tracks.

TVXQ started out as a quintet in 2004, but the three other members broke off from SM Entertainment in 2009 and formed trio JYJ under C-Jes Entertainment.

JYJ’s Jaejoong is currently serving in the army, while bandmate Yoochun is preparing to join the military next month.
