UNIQ
UNIQ (유니크) is a South Korean-Chinese co-production group formed by Yuehua Entertainment in 2014. The five-member group debuted on October 20, 2014, with the single Falling In Love released simultaneously in South Korea and China. Members Wang Yibo, Cho Seung-youn (now known as WOODZ), Li Wenhan, Kim Sung-joo, and Zhou Yixuan originally trained under YG Entertainment before Yuehua launched the group independently.
UNIQ stood out for their mature, dual-market concept at a time when most cross-border idol acts defaulted to a safer pop formula. Their debut was accompanied by OST contributions for the Chinese releases of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Penguins of Madagascar. In April 2015, they released their first mini album EOEO, featuring the high-energy title track alongside Luv Again, earning strong reviews for polished production and synchronized choreography.
Korean activities slowed significantly after 2016 following the THAAD diplomatic crisis. Despite the hiatus, each member pursued successful individual careers: Wang Yibo became one of China's most prominent actors and global brand ambassadors; Li Wenhan and Zhou Yixuan established themselves in the Chinese entertainment industry; and Cho Seung-youn built a solo discography as WOODZ with a dedicated international following.
On the group's 10th anniversary in October 2024, Zhou Yixuan and WOODZ posted congratulatory messages, with UNIQ Disbands trending on Weibo -- though no official disbandment announcement has been made by Yuehua. UNIQ's music remains on streaming platforms, remembered for a brief but stylistically distinct run at the intersection of K-pop and Mandopop.

Who are the members of UNIQ?
UNIQ has five members: Yixuan (Zhou Yixuan), Sungjoo, Wenhan (Zhu Zhengting), Seungyeon (known as WOODZ as a soloist), and Yibo (Wang Yibo). The group debuted on October 20, 2014, under Yuehua Entertainment with the single Falling in Love.
Why is UNIQ inactive?
UNIQ stopped active group promotions around 2018 due to the deterioration of Sino-Korean entertainment relations following the THAAD missile dispute. All five members have since pursued individual careers: Wang Yibo as a major Chinese actor, WOODZ as a Korean soloist, and others in acting and Chinese entertainment projects.
Is UNIQ still together?
UNIQ has never officially disbanded, but the group has not had a full comeback since 2019. Members have continued promoting individually. Wang Yibo achieved major fame in China through dramas like The Untamed (2019), and WOODZ built a successful solo career in Korea. The group status remains technically active as of 2025.
What label is UNIQ under?
UNIQ debuted under Yuehua Entertainment, the Chinese-Korean label that later rebranded to YH Entertainment. The label also manages artists including EVERGLOW, TEMPEST, and a roster of Chinese solo artists. UNIQ was one of the earliest acts to navigate a dual Chinese-Korean market strategy.
What are UNIQ most known songs?
UNIQ's most recognized releases include the debut single Falling in Love (2014), their breakout EP EOEO (2016), and later singles Best Friend (2016) and My Special (2018). EOEO remains their fan-favorite comeback, and the group has a dedicated fandom called UNICORN.
