Another Light is the fifth studio album of South Korean group Sechs Kies. The album was released on September 21, 2017, by the group's record label, YG Entertainment. It was the last album to feature member Sunghoon before his departure on January 1, 2019, from Sechskies and YG.

Background
In 2000 Sechs Kies disbanded abruptly, announcing that they wanted to leave when their popularity was at its peak and pursue an ordinary life, three years after they debuted under the management of DSP Entertainment.

After signing with YG Entertainment in 2016, Sechs Kies released three new singles and re-released their old hit songs. Another Light is the band's first studio album in 18 years, following Blue Note, released in May 2000. It contains nine new tracks, including the double lead single "Something Special" and "Smile".

Release and promotion
The album was made available for pre-orders on September 18. The album was made available on major streaming platforms on September 21, while the physical release occurred on September 22. The album has two different versions, Type A and Type B, with a 64-page photo book and random photo card, while limited quantities produced in initial production included a poster.

Sechs Kies held a live broadcast via Naver V Live, 1 hour prior to their new album release. The group were also guests on JTBC’s Knowing Bros to promote the album. Sechs Kies performed "Something Special" for the first time on SBS's Inkigayo on September 24. The group held a series of fan signing events in South Korea to promote the album. They held their 20th anniversary concert on September 23 at the Seoul Gocheok Sky Dome.

Commercial performance
Another Light entered the Billboard World Albums chart at number 10, and was successful domestically as well, ranking at number 10 on the Gaon October album chart.
