82MAJOR is one of the latest boy groups to debut in the second half of 2023. 82MAJOR is also Great M Entertainment’s first K-Pop boy group comprised of Nam Seong Mo, Park Seok Joon, Yoon Ye Chan, Cho Seong Il, Hwang Seong Bin, and Kim Do Gyun.

The sextet released their debut single album “ON” on October 11, 2023. The single album consists of two tracks: “Sure Thing” and “FIRST CLASS.” Members Nam Seong Mo and Hwang Seong Bin participated in writing the lyrics for “Sure Thing,” and Yoon Ye Chan joined them in writing “FIRST CLASS.”

“Sure Thing” is an upbeat track bustling with hope and excitement of meeting their fans in the future. “FIRST CLASS” exudes confidence and the promise of reliance on each other to reach new levels of success as a group. Sonically, both these tracks are diverse and establish a strong sense of versatility in the group. “Sure Thing” employs a fluid pop beat rendition, whereas “FIRST CLASS” plays off of a rad, hip-hop composition.

The boys were pumped to meet with writers from all over the globe and talk about their endeavors. The time was delightfully spent with their engaging reactions and enthusiasm. Let’s find out what the group had to say.
