NEWBEAT (KR)

About

Also known as: HinLOVE, 뉴비트

Newbeat spent a good while as a pack of backup dancers before ever becoming a proper group. The seven members appeared in A.C.E's "My Girl" video, danced on the US leg of A.C.E's Rewind Us tour under the name Hinlove, and even took to the streets for a summer of busking with local dance crews on the High & Low Donuts tour. That stage grit shows up in how they carry themselves. The South Korean boy band, put together by Beat Interactive, officially debuted in March 2025 with the studio album Raw and Rad. It came with a rollout of pre release singles, "Jello" and "Hiccups", before the lead single "Flip the Coin" landed on debut day. They kept the momentum going with the digital single "Cappuccino", a thank you to fans, and then followed up with their first EP, Louder Than Ever, in November.
