Fans are about to see a lot of SEVENTEEN this time. Aside from their upcoming mini-album, the boys will join the See Us Unite for Change worldwide special event to support the Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders community (AAPI).
The See Us Unite for Change is a global event that is part of the Asian American Foundation's (TAAF) See Us Unite cultural campaign. Aside from SEVENTEEN, it will also feature more K-pop stars, idols, and even international performers and celebrities.

Meanwhile, aside from gracing this event, SEVENTEEN is also set to drop their eighth mini-album, titled Your Choice. The new LP is part of the group's Power of Love project and the boys give their fans a glimpse of it through a 90-second animated concept trailer, featuring a "finger-snapping soundtrack," Billboard noted.
It also features images of the characters shooting hoops, eating cake, falling asleep on the train, and cuddling with their dogs. They all confirm love's importance, saying, "We all need love," which finds its way to everyone, anywhere.
It also says that love is the "light that shines" on everyone, calling it a miracle in every person's life. At the end of the clip, the group poses on the beach and asks to give them love.
SEVENTEEN has been on a hiatus for about eight months. Now, they return to spread and talk about love.
The 13-member band says in a press release they will explore everything about love to give light to the different moments that show love is everywhere. It can be in any form and encounter at various times of people's lives every day.
The group will be collaborating with Geffen Records/Universal Music Group for the U.S. & international release of their new music.
SEVENTEEN's Power of Love will drop on Friday, June 18. Alternatively, See Us Unite for Change will air on Friday, May 21, at 8 p.m. Eastern Time on MTV, Facebook Watch, BET and Nickelodeon.
