It’s official: ARMADA Entertainment’s upcoming boy group ONE PACT is gearing up for their debut.
Moreover, ONE PACT is composed of five former Boys Planet contestants. They are Yoon Jong Woo, former TO1 member Oh Seong Min (who did promotions as Jerome), former Ciipher member Tag, Lee Ye Dam, and Jay Chang.
Notably, Tag initially joined Boys Planet as a contestant, but ultimately left the survival show before it began airing. Furthermore, Jay Chang was also first rumored to debut as a soloist, before surprising fans with his ONE PACT involvement.
On Thursday, November 2, the group released a scheduler for their first mini-album Moment. The quartet will be releasing the usual concept photos, track lists, and teasers prior to the album and music video release on November 30.
As of writing, other details, such as the number of songs and title track for Moment have yet to be announced.
