SHINee spilled some details on the final song of the foursome’s return, Sunday at midnight.

Its latest EP, “The Story of Light,” is a trilogy with three single tracks released in succession -- “Good Evening” on May 25, “I Want You” on June 11 and “Our Page” on June 25.

The boy band marks a decade together with “Our Page,” the original Korean title of which literally translates to “The Words That You Left Behind.”

“The third lead track is emotive R&B, which is distinct from the other two dance tracks,” explained Minho, the band’s rapper.

“The Story of Light” marks SHINee’s transformation into a quartet following the passing of lead vocalist Jonghyun in December.

“We never said we’d stay grouped together for 10 years,” said Onew. “It just happened naturally.”

In the released teaser clip -- “teaser No. 1” -- the SHINee bandmates have their backs turned from the camera.

Fromis_9 created a collage of moments from the group’s trip to Jeju Island and showcased the clip on Naver’s V app Sunday.

The two-minute clip began with Hayoung greeting the viewers with a bubbly hello. “I’m so happy to be here (in Jeju),” she said. “I hope that whoever is watching is also having a great day.”

The clip proceeds to show the nine girls doing random bits from lounging on the couch to cooking to staring at their phones.

Fromis_9 debuted through Mnet’s 2017 reality show “Idol School.” The rookie group released its second EP on June 5.

Yugyeom of GOT7 faced internet connectivity errors as he attempted to livestream on Naver’s V app Sunday.

In a clip titled “It keeps disconnecting” with a teary-eyed emoji, GOT7’s youngest bandmate struggled to stay on air, complaining of a connection issue. “Is this working? Can you guys see me?” he repeatedly asked the viewers.

The technical problems did not stop him from having fun, however, as Yugyeom tried out a filter that put a dog’s arms around his face. “This is fun,” he commented, smiling.

Throughout the clip’s minute and a half, Yugyeom’s face filled the entire screen, zoomed in to the max.

Despite the sketchy quality of the broadcast, fans showed unwavering adoration. “You are so cute even without any makeup on,” commented one fan.
