Here’s Everything You Need To Know About The 3 New K-Pop Groups Debuting In March

It seems like every month now there are new K-Pop groups debuting, which really isn’t all that far from the truth! While it’s not always big-name companies that are forming new groups, there are a ton of smaller or newly created companies that are doing their best to try and make a name for themselves and for their artist in the K-Pop industry.

These three boy groups, all coming from different companies with different concepts and styles, will be debuting in March this year!

1. CIIPHER

CIIPHER is an upcoming 7-member boy group that was formed by RAIN Company, the label created by K-Pop artist Rain himself, and will be the first group to debut under the company! The group is set to debut on March 15 with the members Hyunbin, Tan, Hwi, Keita, Tag, Dohwan, and Won.

Tan’s position is so far unknown in the group, and he was born on August 25, 1996. He is also a former Starship Entertainment trainee, and participated on NO.MERCY, the survival show that formed MONSTA X. Since he specializes in singing, he will likely have some kind of vocalist position!

Tag’s position is still unknown in the group, and he was born on September 30, 2002. Though he’s Korean, he was raised in Thailand, and is therefore able to speak Korean and Thai, as well as English. He was an actor and model as a child, and also was a contestant on High School Rapper 4.

Dohwan’s position in the group is still unknown, and he was born on August 26, 2003. He also participated on YG Entertainment’s Treasure Box, and through it became best friends with TREASURE member Doyoung.
