How was the girl band LATENCY formed.

Latency (Hee-yeon, Ji-won, Hyun-jin, Ha-eun, Semi) held a showcase to commemorate the release of their debut album "LATE O'CLOCK" at the Shocking K-Pop Center in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 18th.

Leightoncy is a band formed by members who have been active in different girl groups. It consists of signature support (guitar), Ha-eun (keyboard), Semi (base), and Hyunjin (drum) of LOONA, and Hee-yeon, a genius guitarist. Direct translation of the team name means "Jiyeon," but the members expressed their intention to tell the story through music that the moment that seemed late could eventually be a new beginning.

In this regard, Ji-won said, "When I first released a solo song, I came into contact with the CEO, and he was preparing for the band, and he gave me a suggestion as a vocalist. I knew my friends who were passionate about music, so I thought that there would be a good synergy if I do something together, so I suggested it to Ha-eun and Semi, who signed it, and I was a trainee with Hyun-jin."

Ji Ji-won then said, "I also suddenly remembered Hyun-jin saying that he played drums for a while 10 years ago and that it was fun. Just in time, Hyunjin is the FA. Even the visual is perfect. So I contacted him right away. Hyun-jin also had a great desire for music, so he couldn't make an easy decision, but he gladly said he would do it together, so he joined. The timing was so good. I think it's fate," he said, expressing a special affection for the members.

Latency's debut album "LATEO'CLOCK" will be released on various online music sites at 6 p.m. on the 18th.
