V01D

V01D (보이드) is a five-member Seoul band under IX Entertainment that debuted on March 11, 2026 with the first mini album [01]. In a market where idol bands often arrive either overly polished or aggressively indie-coded, V01D sits in a smarter middle lane: live instrumentation, tight visual framing, and songs built to move like a group with real performance chemistry rather than a project assembled around optics.

The name combines void with 01, making the concept read like both origin story and ambition statement. The lineup includes Jo Juyeon, Kevin Park, Jung Jiseob, Song Uchan, and Shinnosuke, drawing from different backgrounds that already gave the band more texture than a standard rookie introduction. Jiseob arrived with prior band experience through 2Z. Juyeon and Kevin Park were visible through STEAL HEART CLUB. That history matters because V01D does not sound like a blank-slate debut.

The March 3 pre-release ROCKROCK (樂樂) set the tone before [01] landed with title track Tug of War, plus The One and LUNA. Members contributed to lyric writing across the project and also joined arrangement work, signaling a band being introduced through authorship as much as image. For IX Entertainment, V01D is an early proof-of-concept act. For the wider scene, they look like one of 2026's clearer cases of a new band arriving with both identity and replay value already in place.
