The new boy group IDID, born from Starship's massive project 'Debut's Plan', will have their pre-debut today (24th).
IDID will release their pre-debut song 'STEP IT UP', which serves as a signal for their official debut and is included in their first mini-album 'I did it.', at 6 p.m. through various online music sites.
'STEP IT UP' incorporates a bright mood within a familiar hip-hop format, capturing both the confidence of newcomers on stage and the tension of the starting line. Global producers, including Dem Jointz, who has participated in albums of renowned K-pop artists such as Dr. Dre, Eminem, Jennie's 'ExtraL', aespa's 'Supernova', NCT 127's 'Cherry Bomb', and 'Hero (英雄; Kick It)', added to its quality.
IDID is a new boy group created through Starship's massive project 'Debut's Plan', known as 'the house of artists', and consists of Jang Yong-hoon, Kim Min-jae, Park Won-bin, Chu Yu-chan, Park Seong-hyeon, Baek Jun-hyeok, and Jeong Se-min, with an average age of 18, drawing global fans' attention for their limitless growth potential.
As a team name that embodies the ambition of 'we will achieve anything in the end', expectations are rising to witness the brilliant growth of IDID members, who are overflowing with curiosity for new challenges and possess exceptional learning abilities that will enhance their quality.
The pre-debut song 'STEP IT UP' captures the essence of IDID's manifesto, moving confidently towards their own path with honest expression and a free attitude. It showcases the bold first steps of a newcomer leaping towards higher goals. The combination of 808 bass and a heavy track creates bright yet substantial rap, delivering powerful energy on stage in their own style.
IDID is a team that originated from the declaration 'I did it.' and attempts the genre of 'highteen hip-hop' that pursues 'romance and novelty.' Based on classic K-pop performances, they create a pleasant sense of incongruity where familiarity and novelty coexist. 'STEP IT UP' is expected to be a pre-debut song that most instinctively showcases IDID's identity.
IDID, which went through various plans as Starship trainees known as 'NewKids' in the massive project 'Debut's Plan', consists of all-rounder members who have received passing scores from both the board and global fans in evaluations covering singing, dancing, expressiveness, and fan communication.
They are a fully-developed practical idol who has gained live stage experience from the 'Debut's Plan' as well as exceptionally performed special stage appearances on music broadcasts before debut. Attention is on how IDID, after a two-month pre-debut preparation period, will captivate K-pop fans with what level of quality in their stage performances.
Meanwhile, IDID's pre-debut song 'STEP IT UP' will be released today (24th) at 6 p.m. through various online music sites. IDID will hold their first debut showcase at YES24 Live Hall in Gwangjang-dong, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, on their debut day, September 15th, continuing their remarkable debut journey.
