Bio:
Born from the raw energy of HYBE's "&AUDITION" survival show, &TEAM burst onto Tokyo's scene in late 2022 like a fresh wave crashing through Shibuya's glow—nine guys from Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, each bringing their own fire to a sound that's equal parts polished J-pop hooks and K-pop's fierce drive. Led by the steady EJ, with K owning the stage like it's his canvas and Fuma holding the line as sub-leader, they've got Yuma's smooth flow, Nicholas's razor-sharp bars, and Maki's maknae spark lighting up every track. Their debut "Under the Skin" set the tone for anthems that feel like late-night confessions, all pulsing beats and lyrics that tug at the ache of chasing dreams in a crowded world.

Fast-forward to this week, and they're dropping their first Korean album, Back to Life, right as fall hits—tracks teasing that bridge between Tokyo's neon pulse and Seoul's street vibe, with fans already dissecting the highlight medley for those hidden layers of longing and grit. Wrapping up their Japan tour last night, they're headed to Music Bank this weekend, proving how these voices, woven from different roots, turn shared struggles into something that hits universal. If you're scrolling through doubts on a quiet evening, let &TEAM pull you in—their harmony's that reminder you're never chasing alone.
