BigHit Music Introduces New 5-Member Boy Group—Debuting This August!
In a major announcement that’s already stirring buzz in the K-pop world, BigHit Music—home to global superstars BTS and TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT)—will debut its first new boy group in 6 years. The 5-member group is scheduled to make their official debut on August 18, 2025, marking a new chapter in BigHit’s artist lineage.
Who Are the Members?
The lineup includes five teenagers: Martin, James, Juhun, Sunghyun, and Gunho. Far from being typical rookies, this crew is already being dubbed a “Young Creator Crew”, thanks to their direct involvement in songwriting, choreography, and visual production.
Instead of traditional roles like main vocalist or rapper, all members contribute creatively across disciplines—an experimental model of co-creation that reflects Gen Z’s collaborative spirit.
Already in the Credits
These future idols are no strangers to the K-pop industry. Member Martin has songwriting credits on:
- TXT’s Deja Vu and Miracle (기적은 너와 내가 함께하는 순간마다 일어나고 있어)
- LE SSERAFIM’s Pierrot
- ILLIT’s Magnetic
Meanwhile, James has contributed to choreography for ILLIT and is known to have participated in track production as well.
With such a robust résumé even before debut, expectations are sky-high for this new BigHit boy group to redefine what it means to be an “idol.”
When & What to Expect
BigHit Music confirmed that further teasers, concept reveals, and pre-debut content will be rolled out in the coming weeks. For now, fans can circle August 18 on their calendars—the day BTS and TXT officially gain a junior sibling group under the same label.
🌍 K-pop’s Next Creative Powerhouse?
BigHit’s new group isn’t just debuting with visuals and vocals—they’re entering the scene as young creators shaping their own brand of artistry. As the industry leans further into authenticity and fan-collaborative storytelling, this self-produced model could set a trend for future idol generations.
