Dark Moon Series Launches The Witch of Yerasa With &TEAM Collaboration

The latest installment in the DARK MOON series, The Witch of Yerasa, began rolling out on May 18, 2026, with video content, a web novel, and artwork. It is a collaboration with global group &TEAM and is the first story in the series to focus only on werewolves, using a transmedia strategy across four formats.

The Witch of Yerasa is a prequel to Black Moon: Moon Altar and a sequel to Black Moon: Gray City. It is set in the small town of Yerasa in the 2010s and follows werewolves overcoming inherited destinies. The web novel releases in full on May 20, 2026, on NAVER SERIES and Japanese e-book platforms. Video content releases weekly on Mondays on the official DARK MOON YouTube channel, starting May 18. Visual artwork called Blood Prints drops every Friday from May 22 on the official X account. HYBE's Next Entertainment Business Headquarters said the project links web novel, music, video, and artwork to convey the story's power. AI technology was used only in some stages of motion implementation; all core elements were handled by humans.
