On June 15 (KST), British digital magazine DAZED reported seventeen as "Meet the 13-member boy group making K-pop History."

The Dazed gave favorable comments to Seventeen and said, "SEVENTEEN debuted just two years ago, but the multi-faceted, multi-national band have already won big with the critics and dominated the charts.The multi-national group have been killing it from the start: their deliriously upbeat singles have already scored a number of prestigious music awards, they choreograph many of their own tracks and write their own lyrics, and 20-year-old Woozi (real name Lee Jihoon) has become a powerhouse songwriter, having co-written almost of all of the songs that SEVENTEEN have released so far."

In addition, the Dazed highly praised on Seventeen's 4th mini album that was released on May 22nd that "Led by curveball single “Don’t Wanna Cry” (an emotionally resonant foray into western EDM with delicate and impassioned vocals warmed by their ad-libs and some graceful production), its six tracks hang together flawlessly."

Not only British Dazed, but also American Billboard reported through K pop column that "Seventeen has continually impressed as one of K-pop’s most innovative groups." Many foreign countries including America and Britain, gives attention to Seventeen. 

Meanwhile, Seventeen who just finished their promotion on their title song 'Don't Wanna Cry' from their 4th mini album 'Al1' will hold the first world tour concert 'Diamond Edge' at Seoul Jamsil Sports Complex on July 14-16.
