Haru, a member of the boy group XLOV, rejected a specific label he would like to be known by.

On the 28th, a showcase was held at the Cube Convention Center in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, to commemorate the release of XLOV’s (Umu-ti, Louis, Hyun, Haru) third mini-album, ‘i=!’. Hyun was unable to attend the showcase due to a leg injury, following medical advice.

When asked if there was a specific label or reaction he would like to receive that day, Louis replied, “I want to create the label ‘the ultimate beauty.’ For us, hearing ‘Wow, you’re truly beautiful’ is always the most pleasant compliment, rather than just ‘pretty’ or ‘handsome.’ I hope that when people see the ultimate beauty, they think of XLOV.”

In contrast, Haru confessed, “I don’t really want a specific label.” He stated, “I would like you to remember the name XLOV not just as a group name, but as the word itself. I hope you view ‘XLOV’ as a single mood or genre, like a hashtag.”

XLOV is a boy group that has been active under a gender-free concept, which is the first of its kind in K-pop to disregard standards and boundaries of gender. In March, RBW acquired 257 Entertainment, XLOV’s agency, and in August, 257 and WM Entertainment began a new chapter under the single name StrangeLab Co., Ltd.

‘i=!’ is released at 6 p.m. on the 28th through various online music platforms.
