[K-pop] New boy band AxMxP set for September debut

SEOUL, August 29 (AJP) - AxMxP, a four-member boy band, will make their debut in September.

The group's agency FNC Entertainment said they will release their first album, "AxMxP," on Sept. 10 and hold a debut showcase in Seoul the same day.

The band's name reflects their aim of "amplifying music power" and spreading their voices to the world, inspired by the sound equipment amp. On Thursday, an introductory video was unveiled showing electric currents lighting up the band's name.

The vocalist starred in a TV drama about a K-pop band earlier this year, while the guitarist appeared in a supporting role. Both also took part in the drama's ending theme song, which attracted attention.

Before their debut, AxMxP performed at family concerts hosted by the agency last year and appeared at a music festival in Seoul this spring.

The debut marks the company's first new band in 10 years, following the success of boy bands such as F.T. Island, CNBLUE and N.Flying.
