SM Entertainment's new boy band RIIZE has finally removed its veil.
On August 1, SM Entertainment first unveiled RIIZE's debut member on its official social media page. Before their debut, the group has already drawn attention as a group of seven with diverse personalities and strengths.
The members include Sungchan and Shotaro from 'NCT'. 'SM Rookies' Eun-seok and Seung-han also joined the band. They are already receiving love as they are recognized for their individual skills and charms.
There are also two members whose faces are revealed for the first time: Won Bin and Sohee. As a performer and guitar player, Wonbin has excellent skills, while Sohee is an excellent singer.
Anton, the son of singer Yoon-sang, has received attention since childhood. With an exceptional sense of music, he is also talented at composing.
The name RIIZE is a combination of "Rise" and "Realize". Members of the band will grow together and realize their dreams together.
RIIZE pursues "Emotional Pop". It is a unique genre that expresses emotions through music. Bringing inspiration from everyday life to music is the band's goal.
The label SM stated, "It has 7 members with extraordinary talent and visuals" and "They are anticipated to embark on their 'realtime odyssey' as a unified team, carving out a fresh chapter in music history."
