SEOUL, KR — (September 20, 2026) — ATEEZ leader Hongjoong has joined forces with American singer-songwriter Bazzi for one of the most unexpected K-pop collaborations of the month, releasing the dreamy new single and official music video “ENOuGH (w/Bazzi).”




Released September 18 at 1 p.m. KST, “ENOuGH” brings together Hongjoong’s distinctive artistry with the pop and R&B sound of Bazzi, best known internationally for hits including “Mine” and “Beautiful.”

And despite the song carrying a deeper message about fulfillment and recognizing what we already have, Hongjoong acknowledges that there’s another perfectly valid way to hear it: as a love song.

Speaking with Billboard, Hongjoong explained that the song grew from his thoughts about no longer fearing what might be missing from life and instead appreciating what is already there. He also acknowledged that the resulting song very much resembles a love song, leaving its subject deliberately open rather than attaching it to one particular person.




Hongjoong and Bazzi Meet in Another World

The official “ENOuGH” music video takes that emotional concept into outer space.

Hongjoong is depicted traveling through space before encountering Bazzi on an unfamiliar planet. The two artists begin as figures from separate worlds before connecting through music—a visual representation of two people expanding one another’s worlds.

That cinematic science-fiction concept had been teased before the premiere through mysterious imagery involving spacecraft, communication screens and messages traveling across space.




Hongjoong Steps Further Into the Producer Spotlight

“ENOuGH” isn’t simply a guest-vocal collaboration for the ATEEZ leader.

Hongjoong participated in the track’s lyrics, composition and arrangement, further extending the producer-songwriter role he has developed throughout his career with ATEEZ. The project also includes contributions from producers Julia Lewis and Ambera.

For JRL CHARTS readers who have followed ATEEZ throughout 2026, the collaboration arrives during an especially active period. Earlier this year, JRL CHARTS tracked the group’s Adrenaline comeback, the NASA performance video and BAD, which had already surpassed 35 million YouTube views by July.




Now Hongjoong is showing another side of his musical identity.

Rather than ATEEZ’s typically explosive group performances, “ENOuGH” slows everything down, allowing Hongjoong and Bazzi’s contrasting voices—and the emotional simplicity of the song—to carry the production.

And whether listeners hear it as a message about self-acceptance, finding fulfillment in what they already have, or simply two people realizing that they’ve finally found someone who is “enough,” Hongjoong appears perfectly comfortable letting fans decide for themselves.
