The8 and Vernon, members of K-pop group Seventeen, are launching a new subunit called V8. This marks the sixth official unit from the group.
SEOUL, June 16 (Yonhap) -- The8 and Vernon, both members of K-pop boy group Seventeen, will debut a new subunit, V8, later this month, the group's agency, Pledis Entertainment, said Tuesday.
The duo will release its first EP, "V8," on June 29 as the group's sixth official unit following BSS, Jeonghan x Wonwoo, Hoshi x Woozi, S.Coups x Mingyu and DK x Seungkwan.
The album explores themes of recovery and growth discovered through wandering and confusion from the past, the agency said.
It will feature eight tracks, including lead single "singasong," an electronic song rooted in hyperpop, and co-composed by German DJ and producer Mechatok alongside the two members. Other tracks include "Friend," "Beat," "Mia," "Coloring," "girlsnboys," "8DM" and the digital-only "rat race."
"Girlsnboys" was written, composed and produced by Pharrell Williams, a 14-time Grammy Award winner, with longtime Seventeen collaborator and producer Bumzu also contributing to the track.
V8 will hold its first standalone concerts on July 11-12 at the KINTEX convention center in Goyang, west of Seoul, in what will be the first Seventeen unit show to adopt a standing format. The pair will then perform in Hong Kong from July 17-19.
