BSS (Korean: 부석순, also known as BooSeokSoon or Seventeen BSS) is the first sub-unit of South Korean boy band Seventeen. Formed in 2018, the group is composed of DK, Hoshi, and Seungkwan. They are the recipient of a Grand Prize (Daesang) which they won at the 2023 Asia Artist Awards.[1][2]

Name

BSS is an acronym that stands for BooSeokSoon, a portmanteau composed of a syllable from each of the band members' names: "Boo" from Boo Seung-kwan, "Seok" from Lee Seokmin (DK), and "Soon" from Kwon Soonyoung (Hoshi). The name was coined by fans during the members' training period, prior to their official debut as Seventeen.[3]

Career

2018: Formation and debut

On February 2, 2018, Seventeen members DK, Hoshi, and Seungkwan performed an unreleased song, "Just Do It", at a fan meeting as a special one-time skit.[4] Following the performance, the fans' enthusiastic reaction prompted the formation of Seventeen's first sub-unit, BSS.[5] The group debuted on March 21, 2018, officially releasing "Just Do It" as a digital single.[6][7]

2019–present: Hiatus and Second Wind

Almost five years after their debut, BSS announced they would release a new album on January 7, 2023.[8] The group released their first single album Second Wind on February 6, 2023, alongside the music video for its lead single, "Fighting", featuring Lee Young-ji.[9][10] The album includes two other tracks, "Lunch" and "7PM", with the latter featuring Norwegian artist Peder Elias.[11] On the first day of its release, Second Wind sold over 478,000 copies, breaking the first-week sales record for an album released by a K-pop band sub-unit.[12] By the end of the first week, the album sold a record 610,189 copies in total.[13] On February 15, 2023, BSS received their first music show win on MBC M's Show Champion with "Fighting", followed by wins on M Countdown, Music Bank, Show! Music Core and Inkigayo.[14][15][16]
