The news of Hoshi and Woozi’s upcoming sub-unite debut comes a few days after SEVENTEEN’s final show for their ’17 Is Right Here’ world tour, which concluded with a two-night stint in Bangkok on February 15 and 16.
The duo will also be the second SEVENTEEN sub-unit to release music in 2025, with BSS – comprising Hoshi, DK and Seungkwan – releasing the ‘Teleparty’ single album last month. The record marked their first comeback in two years, headlined by title track ‘CBZ (Prime Time)’.
The ‘Teleparty’ album received a glowing five-star review from NME’s Carmen Chin. “Over the course of three tracks, Seungkwan, DK and Hoshi, having rekindled the lost art of quirky K-pop, expand on their grounded whimsicality,” she wrote of the release.
Last month, SEVENTEEN also previewed a new song, ‘Bad Influence’, at the Louis Vuitton FW 2025 show in Paris. The track was produced by Pharrell Williams as part of the fashion show’s original soundtrack.
