The team, formed by members from different idol backgrounds, is garnering attention.
LATENCY plans to showcase their identity through live performances and content in the future.
[TV Daily Kim Jin-seok] The 5-member band LATENCY is making its official debut in the music scene today. At 6 PM on January 8, they will release their debut single 'It Was Love' and kick off their music activities. LATENCY consists of Jiwon, Semi, and Ha-eun from Signature, Hyunjin from LOONA, and influencer Hee-yeon, also known as 'Ddongchitangchi.' The combination of these members, who have already established careers in various sectors, is drawing significant attention as they challenge themselves in a band format. The name 'LATENCY' is derived from the musical term referring to the delay, symbolizing their belief that even if their music arrives late, it will eventually resonate with the audience. This concept is deeply tied to the narrative of members from different backgrounds uniting as one band. The debut song 'It Was Love' symbolizes LATENCY's story, seamlessly blending their narrative with a vibrant band sound. Previously revealed during the month-end evaluation stage, the song generated considerable buzz, highlighting the members' emotions and live-oriented sound. A representative from the agency stated, 'LATENCY is not just a completed image, but a team that will prove their journey back onto the stage through music,' adding that they will consistently showcase their identity as a band through live performances and content post-debut. Meanwhile, LATENCY will officially commence its activities starting with the release of 'It Was Love' today.
The debut of LATENCY marks a significant turning point as it brings together members who have all built unique careers in various idol groups. While each member possesses their own artistic identity, the combination in a band format expands their potential for musical experimentation. The debut track 'It Was Love' encapsulates this turning point, harmoniously expressing individual emotions. Furthermore, LATENCY is expected to solidify its musical identity centered around band sound, likely becoming another appealing aspect of their profile. Tracks like 'It Was Love' are anticipated to deliver a fresh interpretation of band music. They seem poised to strengthen their musical identity further through genuine communication with their fandom. Additionally, LATENCY’s independent activities allow for diverse entertainment offerings, with live performances promising exciting musical moments.
