Shownu and Hyungwon of Monsta X will form a subunit, a first from the six-member band, this summer, according to a local media report on Wednesday.
Agency Starship Entertainment confirmed the news following the report. No specific timetable, though, has been set yet, it added.
It will be Shownu’s first official activity since he was discharged from the mandatory military service last month.
The band debuted in 2015 with EP Trespass and bandmates will pursue individual careers for the time being as Minhyuk enlisted in April. Jooheon will release his first solo album, Lights, on May 22 while I.M hinted at solo activities with a teaser last month. I.M is the only member that did not renew his contract with his agency and signed with Sony Music Entertainment instead. – The Korea Herald/Asia News Network
