ATINYs, the title is official: BAD (Japanese Ver.) — and the budget version just got better than we told you. 🏴☠️ ATEEZ's 5th Japanese single drops Wednesday, July 29, 2026, led by the Japanese-lyric version of "BAD" — yes, THAT "BAD," the GOLDEN HOUR : Part.5 title track that just handed ATEEZ their third Billboard 200 No. 1 and a 1.88 million first-week in Korea (their seventh million seller). The First Flash Price Edition is the lowest-priced entry in the entire 13-version lineup — ¥1,540 tax-in Japanese list price — and here's the correction that matters: it DOES include a trading card. Every copy has a member selca trading card sealed inside — a Flash Price Edition-exclusive design, random 1 of 8 unreleased selfies — plus, while first-press stock lasts, an application lottery serial number.
We previously listed this edition as CD-and-booklet only based on pre-announcement information. The official spec upgraded it. We're not mad about being wrong.
WHY THE FLASH PRICE EDITION:
💿 Cheapest chart support in the lineup — same 6 tracks as the ¥3,300 ATINY盤, at half the price. This is the copy you add for the Oricon push.
🎴 Exclusive card pool — the Flash Price selca designs exist ONLY in this edition. The Limited A/B and Regular editions each have their own separate pools; completionists need this version too. (1 pull, 1-in-8 for your bias — standard ATEEZ odds, standard ATINY suffering.)
🎟️ First-press serial number — the application lottery ticket for the Japan release events (September–October 2026, Osaka and Tokyo). ⚠️ Heads up: the lottery events are held in Japan and applications are generally valid for Japan residents only — for US buyers, treat the serial as a first-press collectible.
🪙 Where it sits: Limited A/B carry the 36-page photobooks and 16-card pools; the Regular Edition is the mid-price CD with its own 8-card pool; the ATINY盤 is fanclub-only in Japan; the 8 Member Solo editions are the bias-lock plays. The Flash Price is pure value.
The visual concept runs black-base-red-accent styling in the first concept photos, with a bold pink-backed second set — grown, glossy, and slightly menacing, which is the ATEEZ house style at this point.
ABOUT ATEEZ: ATEEZ (에이티즈) is the eight-member boy group under KQ Entertainment — Hongjoong, Seonghwa, Yunho, Yeosang, San, Mingi, Wooyoung, and Jongho — who debuted October 24, 2018 with Treasure EP.1: All to Zero. Their Japanese releases come via Universal Music Japan. The group's GOLDEN HOUR series has been a chart machine: GOLDEN HOUR : Part.5 (June 2026) debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 — ATEEZ's third US No. 1 album — with 1.88 million first-week copies in Korea, their seventh million-selling release. BAD (Japanese Ver.) is their fifth Japanese single and first in about 1 year and 10 months, since "Birthday" (October 2024). Their fandom: ATINY (에이티니).

Q: What is ATEEZ BAD (Japanese Ver.)? A: BAD (Japanese Ver.) is ATEEZ's 5th Japanese single, releasing July 29, 2026 via Universal Music Japan (KQ Entertainment). It's led by the Japanese-lyric version of "BAD" — the title track of GOLDEN HOUR : Part.5, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 (ATEEZ's third US No. 1) with 1.88 million first-week copies in Korea — plus two new Japanese original songs, "Seeker" and "HIGHER," and their instrumentals (6 tracks total). It comes in 13 editions: the fanclub-only ATINY盤, Limited Editions A and B with 36-page photobooks, the Regular Edition, the First Flash Price Edition, and 8 Member Solo Editions.
Q: How much is the ATEEZ BAD Flash Price Edition? A: The official Japanese list price is ¥1,540 tax-included (catalog UMCK-7322) — the lowest-priced edition in the entire 13-version lineup. Our US price is shown on this page and at checkout; shipping from Denver, Colorado means no proxy fees, no forwarding services, and no customs charges.
Q: What is inside the BAD (Japanese Ver.) Flash Price Edition? A: The CD (6 tracks, jewel-case format with lyric booklet — no photobook), one member selca trading card sealed in every copy (Flash Price Edition-exclusive design, random 1 of 8 unreleased selfies), and — in first-press copies while stock lasts — an application lottery serial number for the Japan release events.
Q: Does the Flash Price Edition come with a trading card? A: Yes. Every copy includes one member selca trading card in a Flash Price Edition-exclusive design, randomly selected from 8 unreleased selfies (one per member). Note this corrects earlier pre-announcement information: the card pool for this edition is separate from the Limited A (16 types), Limited B (16 types), Regular (8 types), and Member Solo pools.
Q: What is a Flash Price Edition? A: A Flash Price Edition is a Japanese release format: a stripped-down, budget-priced CD-only version designed to make the music accessible at the lowest possible price point. No photobook, no premium packaging — just the CD, the sealed trading card, and (first press) the lottery serial. ATEEZ has used the format on previous Japanese singles including NOT OKAY and Birthday.
Q: What is the difference between ALL BAD (Japanese Ver.) versions? A: All 13 editions share the same 6 tracks; the differences are packaging, price, and card pools. The ATINY盤 (¥3,300, fanclub-only in Japan) has a photobook and 2 random cards from a 32-type pool. Limited Editions A and B (¥3,025 each) add 36-page photobooks with 16-type card pools each. The Regular Edition (¥1,980) is CD-only with an 8-type pool. The First Flash Price Edition (¥1,540) is the cheapest, CD-only with its own exclusive 8-type selca pool. The 8 Member Solo Editions (¥1,540 each) are CD-only with jacket art and a 2-type card pool per member — the guaranteed-bias option. First-press copies of the standard editions include the event lottery serial number. This page covers the Flash Price Edition — the value pick and chart-support workhorse.
Q: What are the HMV and Tower Records benefits for BAD (Japanese Ver.)? A: In Japan, participating retailers — including Tower Records and HMV — offer first-come store-limited bonus designs (member selca trading cards with retailer-exclusive artwork) with pre-orders/purchases, as officially confirmed on July 15, 2026. These store benefits are distributed at Japanese shops while supplies last and are separate from the sealed-in inclusions. Kpop Exchange stock includes everything sealed inside the album (the Flash Price-exclusive selca card and first-press serial while stocks last) but does NOT include Japan-retailer store bonuses. Any Kpop Exchange pre-order benefit will be announced on this page.
Q: Does BAD (Japanese Ver.) count toward Hanteo and Billboard? A: It's a Japanese release, so it counts toward Oricon and Billboard JAPAN charts — the charts that matter for Japanese singles. It is not tracked by Hanteo or Circle (Gaon), which cover Korean releases. If your goal is supporting ATEEZ's Japanese chart performance, this edition counts fully.
Q: When does BAD (Japanese Ver.) release? A: Wednesday, July 29, 2026. This listing is a pre-order; copies ship after release once stock arrives and is processed.
Q: Can I use the application lottery serial number from the USA? A: The serial number enters the lottery for ATEEZ's Japan release events (Osaka September 5, 2026; Tokyo October 2–3, 2026) — attendance and applications are generally valid within Japan only. For US buyers, the serial is best treated as a first-press collectible unless you can attend in Japan.
Q: Who are the members of ATEEZ? A: ATEEZ (에이티즈) is an eight-member boy group under KQ Entertainment: Hongjoong (홍중), Seonghwa (성화), Yunho (윤호), Yeosang (여상), San (산), Mingi (민기), Wooyoung (우영), and Jongho (종호). They debuted October 24, 2018 with Treasure EP.1: All to Zero. Their fandom is ATINY (에이티니).
Q: Can I cancel my pre-order? A: No. Albums cannot be cancelled or refunded once processed. All sales are final.
Q: How long does shipping take? A: 3–7 business days from Denver, Colorado once your order is processed (pre-orders ship after the July 29, 2026 release). Tracking included, no customs fees for US buyers.
