Hybe’s global group '&TEAM' will make their debut on December 7th, which makes them the first group to debut under Hybe Labels Japan.

&TEAM is the result of a two-month survival audition series '&Audition - The Howling’ and consists of nine members: K, EJ, Taki, Nicholas, Jo, Harua, Maki, Yuma and Fuma.

The group name holds the meaning of a team of nine diverse members making connections with people around the world and fans through the symbol “&” and even making a solid platform for fans to connect with each other through their unique group identity and music.
