"NEXZ," a global boys group born from the Japan-Korea joint audition project "Nizi Project Season 2" by JYP and Sony Music. On December 18 last year, J.Y. Park's lyrics and composition "Miracle" performed at the final stage of the audition were released as a pre-release song, topping the Oricon Daily Digital Single Ranking on December 18, as well as iTunes, LINE MUSIC, AWA, mu-mo, Rakuten Music, and other music distribution sites. In addition, the simultaneously released "Miracle (Korean Ver.)" also topped the "K-POP" genre on iTunes, achieving the feat of both Japanese and Korean songs reaching number one. The "Miracle" Performance Video, released at the same time as the music distribution, surpassed 10 million views on YouTube in 6 days, and has already exceeded 17 million views. Furthermore, even before their debut, they surprised the public with a large-scale project with the daily hydration drink "Aquarius," which was not typical for rookie artists. Starting in April, Mnet's solo reality show "Debut Preparation Class <CLUB NEXZ>" has been broadcasted and distributed (in Japan, every Sunday at 0:00 on Lemino with Japanese subtitles). The preparations for their debut are progressing smoothly. Finally, the long-awaited news of NEXZ's "debut" has arrived. According to the information disseminated from their owned media triggered by the trailer released today, NEXZ will "globally debut" on May 20 (Monday). JYP, to which they belong, is a leading South Korean entertainment agency with a track record of producing numerous stars such as 2PM, TWICE, Stray Kids, and NiziU. However, as a boy group created by JYP, they are the first since Stray Kids, who are now world stars, to debut in about 6 years. About 5 months after the conclusion of last year's hit "Nizi Project Season 2," JYP is sending out a boy group after a long time, raising high expectations from around the world. With NEXZ's "global debut" as their first step, there is much anticipation for what lies ahead. In the trailer released today, their diverse charms and personalities are showcased in a performance of "HOW TO," raising expectations for the Korean release "Ride the Vibe." Starting with YU's "EAT," followed by TOMOYA's "MOVE BODY," HARU's "BE LIKE KIDS," SO GEON's "GET HOOKED ON," SEITA's "LOVE," HYUI's "CLEAN," and YUKI's "SLEEP DEEP," all these themes are consolidated under the keyword "Vibe," beautifully expressing the unique musicality of the Korean release "Ride the Vibe."
