#. Choi Rip-woo and Kang Woo-jin's 'youth narrative' that began through an audition program

Flare U is a duo group composed of Choi Rip-woo and Kang Woo-jin, who were recognized for their skills and potential through Mnet's 'Boys2 Planet,' which aired last year. Throughout the program's broadcast, the two demonstrated exceptional teamwork and earned the love of many fans. Afterward, they consistently supported each other by visiting each other's fan meetings, and they have now finally come together as one group, promising even stronger synergy.

Flare U has already made notable appearances across various fields alongside their debut announcement. In March, they were selected as the DJ of the month for MBC FM4U's 'Chinhan Chin-gu Broadcasting Room,' where they were active for a month, and they have continued to showcase their unique chemistry through a steady stream of diverse photo shoots and content. Additionally, ahead of their debut, they took the stage at 'KCON JAPAN 2026' for the first time, meeting global fans. Thus, the connection that began through an audition program has evolved into a group, and Choi Rip-woo and Kang Woo-jin are set to write a new narrative under the name Flare U.

#. Expectations for Flare U's unique 'youth performance'

Through this album, Flare U plans to clearly showcase their own youth energy and performance style. Ahead of their official debut, they first revealed three tracks from their debut album 'YOUTH ERROR' at 'KCON JAPAN 2026' from the 8th to the 10th. On the stage for the title track 'WAY 2 U,' they expressed the excitement of transitioning from friends to lovers through cute choreography. In the track 'Hyper,' they delivered an energetic performance, while on the 'WOO-HOO' stage, they portrayed the free-spirited image of boys surrendering to the rhythm, completing Flare U's unique 'youth performance.' Having left a strong impression from their first stage, curiosity grows about what their performance will look like when they appear on music shows for the first time after their debut.

#. A 'youth visual duo' perfected by flawless facial harmony

The debut album 'YOUTH ERROR' is a record capturing two youths who made mistakes, stumbled, and carried different errors. Before the album's release, Flare U unveiled two versions of concept photos, showcasing the diverse faces of youth. In the 'Oops!' version, they perfectly executed a twin-style preppy look, maximizing a refreshing synergy. In the 'BFF (Best Friends Forever)' version, they exuded a natural and fresh charm within a comfortable space, drawing smiles from viewers. As two individuals with distinct charms come together to create youth synergy, anticipation builds for how this will unfold within the album.

Flare U will release their debut album 'YOUTH ERROR' at 6 p.m. on the 13th and hold a 'Debut News' event at Seoul Blue Square's WON Banking Hall at 8 p.m.
