SEVENTEEN Member Introduction: New Unit, 10th Anniversary, and Upcoming Activities

SEVENTEEN is currently generating significant buzz in Korea with upcoming activities and the announcement of a new unit. As a "self-producing idol" group celebrating its 10th anniversary, their unique unit system and strong team identity continue to captivate fans. The upcoming "visual unit" featuring Jeonghan and Joshua, set to debut in October 2026, is a key reason for this excitement, adding a fresh dynamic to their diverse promotions.

The 13-member group, SEVENTEEN, debuted on May 26, 2015, under Pledis Entertainment, now a HYBE subsidiary. Their name symbolizes "13 members + 3 units + 1 team = 17," reflecting their structure where members actively participate in lyrics, composition, and choreography. All members successfully renewed their contracts in July 2021. As of April 2026, the group is scheduled for their WORLD TOUR [NEW_] ENCORE and the 2026 SVT 10TH FAN MEETING <SEVENTEEN in CARAT LAND>. The new Jeonghan and Joshua unit is described as the group's seventh official unit and a "visual unit," notably marking Jeonghan's first official activity after his military discharge.

Local bloggers express considerable anticipation for SEVENTEEN's ongoing endeavors, particularly the new unit. They appreciate how the group, despite its large membership, maintains a distinct identity and clear individual roles, creating an impression of being "full of composition" rather than complex. There is high expectation for the Jeonghan and Joshua unit's concept, genre, and the synergy between the long-standing members, with one blogger specifically looking forward to Jeonghan's return.
