The 7-member boy group MODYSSEY from the Chinese-speaking region officially began their debut activities on the 13th.

Composed of Hengyu, Pan Zai, Li Zihao, Lin Lin, Su Ren, Yi Chen, and Rowan, MODYSSEY earned their debut opportunity through Mnet's programs Boys Planet 2 and Planet C: Home Race. Their debut was reportedly supported by OneSeed, a joint venture established by CJ ENM, JYP China, and Tencent Music Entertainment.

On this day, MODYSSEY released their first single, 1. Got Hooked: An Addictive Symphony. The title track, "Got Hooked," involved the production team 3RACHA (Bang Chan, Changbin, Han) from Stray Kids. The members promised an impressive debut stage with addictive melodies and powerful performances.

MODYSSEY stated, "We are not afraid as long as we are together. We will show how well we can do." Meanwhile, they are scheduled to perform at KCON Japan 2026, held next month at Makuhari Messe in Japan.
