SM Entertainment announce new K-Pop boy group RIIZE
Powerhouse Korean Entertainment company SM Entertainment is set to debut a new highly-anticipated boy group called RIIZE in September 2023.
The group's official Instagram account is now live, which reveals all seven members for the first time – Shotaro, Eunseok, Sungchan, Wonbin, Seunghan, Sohee, and Anton.
The group name RIIZE combines the words – “rise,” symbolising growth, and “realise” representing achievements – which together encapsulate the idea of a team that grows as one while achieving their dreams.
RIIZE is SM Entertainment's newest group, which are set to launch approximately three years after the girl group aespa, and over seven years since NCT.
RIIZE will officially have their debut in September 2023.
