The new special unit of the group SEVENTEEN, Scoups X Mingyu, expressed romantic moments from everyday life through photographs.
HYBE (Chairman Bang Si-hyuk)'s music group label, Pledis Entertainment, posted 15 individual cuts of the first official photo 'BUDDY' version from the mini-album 'HYPE VIBES' and 3 mood board images on SEVENTEEN's official SNS on the evening of the 8th at 10 p.m.
The photos captured the natural looks of Scoups X Mingyu in a hip atmosphere. Their makeup-free faces, tousled hairstyles, and comfortable clothing convey a natural charm. The two, who showcased intense visuals during the activities for SEVENTEEN's 5th full-length album, bring excitement with a more understated and realistic appeal in this release. The small moments, which could not be seen on stage, instead highlight the unique presence of Scoups and Mingyu.
The shooting took place in Hawaii, USA. Everyday spaces such as walking paths and beaches, combined with exotic scenery, delight the eyes. Photos capturing their unguarded moments, such as Scoups enjoying the sea and Mingyu winking while shirtless, clearly show their best friend (BUDDY) qualities.
The mini-album 'HYPE VIBES' by Scoups X Mingyu will be released on the 29th at 6 p.m. The album title 'HYPE VIBES' signifies a warm and free atmosphere where anyone can enjoy and connect together. The demeanor of the two living in the present with their own rhythm, without a fixed framework, is thoroughly captured in the new release.
Scoups X Mingyu will raise comeback expectations by additionally releasing the official photo of the 'COMBI' version today (the 9th). Afterward, the tracklist, track sampler, highlight medley, and two official music video teasers will be unveiled sequentially.
