Big Hit Entertainment’s Japanese division, Big Hit Japan, will debut former contestants from the popular competition program, I-LAND. With their debut, Big Hit Japan will begin the Big Hit Japan Global Debut Project, which debuts artists first within Japan and then promotes them to a global music market.
Former contestants making their debut under this venture includes K, Nicholas, EJ, Kyungmin, and Taki. Further members will join their new boy-group following a new audition process “& AUDITION”, occurring in Japan.
