Seventeen's new special unit Hoshi and Woozi showcased their unique swag as 'friends born in the same year who know how to have fun on stage.'
Pledis Entertainment posted the performance version music video for Hoshi and Woozi’s single album 'BEAM,' featuring the title track 'Friends Born in the Same Year,' at 9:06 p.m. on the 17th through HYBE Labels' official YouTube channel and Seventeen's official SNS.
In the video, Hoshi and Woozi deliver a powerful performance as they move between an art-filled gallery and a parking lot adorned with treadmills. The duo's natural yet powerful dance lines, along with their intricate choreography with the dancers, leave a deep impression.
Hoshi and Woozi, seen rolling their feet while crossing their arms or giving high-fives, highlight their 'true friends' chemistry. This hip and vibrant vibe completes Hoshi and Woozi's chemistry. The diverse use of lighting also emphasizes the stylish atmosphere of the music video. The flickering lights and the background turning red during the chorus accentuate Hoshi and Woozi's unique presence.
The 'Friends Born in the Same Year' dance challenge is garnering an enthusiastic response. The challenge, featuring fellow Seventeen members Jun and Wonwoo, as well as BTS's J-Hope, Le Sserafim's Hong Eun-chae, TWS's Dohun and Youngjae, producer Na Young-seok, Red Velvet's Seulgi, and ITZY's Yeji, exceeded 100 million cumulative views combined across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube as of the morning of the 18th.
Hoshi and Woozi also conveyed heartfelt messages to their friends born in the same year, adding warmth. Consequently, 1996-born artists, including Apink's Oh Ha-young, Oh My Girl's Seunghee, Twice's Jeongyeon, singer Kang Daniel, and Kim Jaehwan, publicly 'shouted out' the members, drawing attention.
Meanwhile, 'BEAM' expresses Hoshi and Woozi's self-love and originality through various lights. The new release debuted at No. 1 on the Hanteo Chart's album chart immediately after its release on the 10th, and maintained a top position on Japan's Oricon 'Daily Single Ranking' for six consecutive days (from March 11 to 16). Seventeen, of which Hoshi and Woozi are members, will meet fans at the Incheon Munhak Stadium on the 20th and 21st for the '2025 SVT 9TH FAN MEETING.'
