SQU4D, a label under YP Entertainment, has launched its first rookie boy group, 'oftheblue,' and begun full-scale teasing ahead of their official debut in 2027.

▶ QR Code and Crossword Puzzle Teasers... Four Members Shrouded in Mystery

On the 6th, SQU4D opened new social media channels for oftheblue and released teaser images featuring a QR code and a crossword puzzle over their faces.

The promotional website linked to the QR code drew attention with film photos of the members walking around various locations in Seoul, everyday sounds, and the phrase 'EVERYTHING GOOD COMES OUT OF THE BLUE.' In particular, curiosity was heightened by a digital sound mixer feature allowing visitors to combine 18 everyday sounds to create their own sound, as well as images showing the four members from behind.

▶ A New Challenge for SQU4D, Which Successfully Launched NMIXX

SQU4D, established with Director Lee Ji-young at its core, successfully debuted NMIXX in 2022. NMIXX solidified its position as a K-pop powerhouse this year, winning the grand prize at 'The Fact Music Awards' and a Minister's Commendation at the 'Korean Popular Culture and Arts Awards.'

The group name 'oftheblue' originates from the phrase 'out of the blue,' meaning an unexpected discovery, with 'blue' containing the meaning of infinite possibility and youth. Set to portray the unpredictable nature of youth, the group will continue its debut rollout by sequentially revealing its group logo on the 7th and a flyer image on the 8th.
