K-pop idol group Seventeen’s Hoshi and Woozi will be making their unit debut with the release of their first single album “Beam” on March 10.
A striking logo trailer revealing the album title was unveiled on Feb. 18, followed by an intense concept teaser signaling the birth of a formidable unit.
Set against a black-and-white palette, the teaser incorporates flickering light and shadow to offer glimpses of the album’s imagery in a mysterious and sensual atmosphere. Near the end, a multitude of papers are shown being printed with uniquely designed logos and the official release date, leaving a vivid impression.

“Beam” represents the light emanating from Hoshi and Woozi, with the duo artistically using ‘light’ as a metaphor to reflect their self-love and originality, shaped by their shared journey from their trainee days to Seventeen’s ascent to global stardom.
The pairing of Hoshi and Woozi carries a profound significance as Seventeen’s “mastermind duo,” with Hoshi as the leader of the performance unit, and Woozi serving as the vocal unit’s leader and the band’s main producer.
They are coming back together with an official unit debut, eight years after they showcased their chemistry through “Bring It”, a B-side track on Seventeen’s second studio album “Teen, Age.”
Seventeen’s units have released hits. Since their launch in 2018, BSS have released massive hits such as “Fighting (Feat. Lee Young Ji),” continuing on their eye-catching career with their recent comeback album, “Teleparty.”
Jeonghan and Wonwoo also became a unit for the single album “This Man” last year, recording the highest first-week album sales in the history of K-pop units.
Pre-orders for “Beam” begin at 11 a.m. KST on Feb. 19 with more information available on Weverse.
