Seventeen (South Korean band)

Seventeen (stylized in all caps or as SVT) is a South Korean boy band formed by Pledis Entertainment. The group consists of thirteen members: S.Coups, Jeonghan, Joshua, Jun, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Woozi, DK, Mingyu, The8, Seungkwan, Vernon, and Dino. Seventeen has won a large audience since its debut and has grown into an internationally recognized K-pop group with signature music and performances.

The group debuted on May 26, 2015, with the extended play (EP) 17 Carat, which became the longest-charting K-pop album of the year in the US and the only rookie album to appear on Billboard's "10 Best K-Pop Albums of 2015" list. Seventeen has released four studio albums, twelve EPs, and three reissues.

Seventeen is considered a "self-producing" idol group, with the members involved in songwriting, music production, and choreographing, among other aspects of their music and performances. They perform as one group and are divided into three units—hip-hop, vocal, and performance—each with a different area of specialization. They have been labeled "Performance Kings", "Theater Kids of K-Pop", and "K-Pop Performance Powerhouse'" by various domestic and international media outlets.

Name
The name Seventeen is derived from the expression "13 members + 3 teams + 1 group", representing how the 13 members are divided into three different teams and come together to form one cohesive group. The name originally referred to how 17 members (with the other 4 former pre-debut trainees — Jang Do-yoon, Samuel Kim, Shin Dong-jin, and Yao Mingming) — planned to debut.

The official name of Seventeen's fan club is "Carat", as announced at a concert on February 14, 2016. Named after the measurement unit for diamonds, it is a reference to their debut EP 17 Carat and its opening song "Shining Diamond". Seventeen have a global fan club hosted via Weverse and a Japan-specific fan club.

2013–2015: Formation, Seventeen TV, and Seventeen Project


Beginning in 2013, Seventeen appeared in regular live broadcasts of a series called Seventeen TV on the online streaming platform UStream. The show aired for multiple seasons, in which trainees were introduced and shown practicing for performances, with some seasons culminating with Like Seventeen concerts. Prior to their debut, Seventeen also appeared in the reality television show Seventeen Project: Big Debut Plan on MBC from May 2 to 26, 2015. The show concluded with the group's debut showcase.

2015–2016: Debut with 17 Carat, first win and first studio album Love and Letter
Seventeen officially debuted on May 26 with a live showcase televised by MBC, the first male K-pop group to debut with a one-hour live showcase on a major broadcasting channel, with labelmates Lizzy and Raina serving as MCs. Three days later, Seventeen's first extended play (EP) 17 Carat was released digitally. 17 Carat became the longest-charting K-pop album of the year in the US and was the only rookie album to appear on Billboard's "10 Best K-Pop Albums of 2015" list.

On September 10, 2015, Seventeen released their second EP Boys Be, which later became the highest-selling rookie album of the year. The EP's success earned the group awards at the Golden Disk Awards, Seoul Music Awards, and Gaon Chart K-Pop Awards. Seventeen became the only K-pop group on Billboard "21 Under 21 2015: Music's Hottest Young Stars" list. Seventeen held a four-show concert series in Seoul titled 2015 Like Seventeen – Boys Wish from December 24 to 26 as a year-end celebration. After the concerts' success, Seventeen held two more in the following February in 2016, the Like Seventeen – Boys Wish Encore Concert.

The Thirteen Tapes
Outside of their digital singles and soundtrack appearances, members of Seventeen began releasing mixtapes in 2021 as part of the group's project, The Thirteen Tapes. Since 2021, four members have released their installments.

Performance team leader Hoshi released his mixtape "Spider" on April 2, 2021. "Spider" features R&B sounds and an acrobatic choreography to match the song's title. Vocal team leader Woozi released the next solo mixtape "Ruby" on January 3, 2022. The fully English track features a rock sound.

The third member to release a mixtape was Vernon, releasing "Black Eye" on December 23, 2022. Dino was the fourth member of the group to release a mixtape with "Wait," which was released on November 27, 2023, featuring a high-energy dance-pop melody.

Soundtrack appearances
Seventeen have worked on a number of OSTs, appearing more often as individual members but occasionally as a full group. Examples of television shows are Twenty-Five Twenty-One and Falling into Your Smile, and web dramas include A-Teen.

Other language releases
Chinese members Jun and The8 have also released music in Chinese, including Jun's "Limbo," which was released on September 23, 2022, and The8's "Side By Side," which was released on April 13, 2021. Jeonghan has released music in Japanese, with "Dream", an unofficial song, released in both Japanese and Korean.

Musical style
Since their debut, Seventeen have been heavily involved in their creative process. Woozi has written and produced each of the band's tracks, with contribution from other members. The group's choreography has also largely been influenced by performance team leader Hoshi. This has contributed to the group's distinctive musical style, with each comeback characterized by a new sound. Woozi explained in an interview with The Korean Herald, "Our participation ... went much further than just contributing our opinions. The leaders of the three unit groups went to every album production meeting to make sure that we could tell our own story."

With a desire to bring a new sound and style with each comeback, Seventeen has explored different genres in their music. However, despite the different genre shifts and experimental forms they take with their music, the group shares their goal is to be authentic and honest with the music they share.

Lyrical themes
Seventeen's self-producing nature enables them to be authentic in their music and better connect with fans. Their lyrics also range from a variety of topics as self-producing allows them to write and sing their own verses. For example, group's Hip-Hop unit, composed of S.Coups, Wonwoo, Mingyu, and Vernon, often write and implement their styles into their songs. Wonwoo said in an interview with Billboard that the diversity in the Hip-Hop team's style "adds a great extent of diversity within the track, and it's fun because we all sound very different and each have a very different [verse]."

The group wants listeners to relate to their music, and illustrate that they face the same issues and problems that their fans encounter. Their songs cover a variety of themes including perseverance through life's struggles, finding comfort in others' company, celebrating one's accomplishments, or reaching new heights.

The group members pull inspiration for many aspects of life from real-life experiences, musical role models, or other inspirations. Woozi, the vocal team leader, is credited for 157 songs from SEVENTEEN's discography and other artists. He often works alongside other group members and Bumzu, a longtime producer for Seventeen, to produce the group's music. He states in an interview with Billboard that inspiration behind songs comes from anywhere, and anyone. Since the members have a hand in producing music, they can garner ideas from things in their everyday life.

Japanese, English, and Chinese releases
As K-pop artists, Seventeen's music and performances cater to both Korean and international audiences. In addition to their core discography, they have released Japanese songs such as "Fallin' Flower" and "Not Alone", alongside Japanese-language versions of previously released songs. In 2023, they released Always Yours, a compilation album featuring all of their Japanese releases to date. In 2024, they released 17 Is Right Here, an equivalent compilation of Korean releases which included Korean-language versions of the group's Japanese songs.

In 2022, Seventeen released their first full English song, "Darl+ing", off their Face the Sun album. "Even if we released – like beforehand – all Korean songs, they would try to interpret it and translate it in order to understand our lyrics. It was kind of like a thank you gift to our Carats," member Joshua said in a Grammy interview when discussing "Darl+ing." In 2023, they worked with music producer Marshmello to release "SOS", another fully English song.

Seventeen has also released songs in Chinese. During a concert in Macau, the group performed a new song titled "相遇的意义" ; they have also released Chinese versions of their Korean tracks.

Choreography
Seventeen's performances often feature intricate choreography. They often use their bigger group size to their advantage to create formations and tell a story through their dances. Performance team leader Hoshi often co-choreographs pieces for the team, and the other three performance team members have also contributed. The group is also well known for their dance synchronization.
