The school band from Mnet's global band making project 'Steel Heart Club' has confirmed its official debut.
Kakao Entertainment announced on the 30th that the school band, consisting of vocalist Lee Yun-chan, guitarist Kim Geon-woo, drummer Kim Eun-chan, bassist Jung Eun-chan, and keyboardist Kim Kyung-wook, has begun preparations with the goal of an official debut later this year.
During the first-round club audition of the program, these boys, who came together as the school band, showcased their stage with the clear vibe and tight teamwork characteristic of boys who first met through their shared membership in the band club. Through their performance of QWER's 'Addicted to Overthinking', they demonstrated fresh yet solid skills, earning unanimous '4 Hearts' from the directors and receiving high praise.
Following the broadcast, enthusiastic support and encouragement from viewers who wished for an official debut with the same lineup continued. Although the members did not secure the top spot in their respective positions, they have consistently received praise for their skills. Given that they clearly appealed to the public with their refreshing energy, it is expected that they will show a good side to fans, leading to the decision to form an additional team following hrtz.wav (Harts Wave), which was composed of the top-ranked members in the final round.
Based on the bright and energetic musical color shown during the program, the school band plans to present a more polished band sound and teamwork. Debut promotions will be released sequentially.
The global band hrtz.wav (Harts Wave), formed by members who took the top spot in their respective positions in the previously broadcast 'Steel Heart Club', has been proving its presence by garnering a strong response both domestically and internationally since its debut on the 8th. Through their debut single 'NINETEEN' and their first mini-album 'The First Wave', they have attracted attention with music that captures various emotions and moments of youth, drawing interest from global fans with their solid ensemble skills and live performances. As they continue to spread word-of-mouth through various content and festival stages, achieving unprecedented buzz for a rookie band, expectations are high that this school band will also carry on that momentum.
