From debut to now

  • 2020
    I-LAND led into the debut with Given-Taken, making a vampire-flavoured world and sharp group choreography the way in.
  • 2021
    Drunk-Dazed and Tamed-Dashed widened the storytelling and the speed, and the route through the Japanese releases grew stronger.
  • 2022
    Blessed-Cursed and Future Perfect leaned into a harder sound and harder performing, pushing the force of the live show forward.
  • 2023
    Bite Me widened the talk around the dark world and the choreography, and the signature entrance to ENHYPEN was renewed.
  • 2024
    XO and No Doubt showed a softer pop side as well, and following the world album by album mattered more.
  • 2026
    Taking the newest songs, the Japanese releases and the performance videos together traces the storytelling and the global work as they stand now.

KPOP DISCOVER's ENHYPEN note

What anchors ENHYPEN is vampire-flavoured storytelling and group choreography held under tension. Seven members chosen on the survival show I-LAND debuted in 2020 with Given-Taken for BELIFT LAB, and since Heeseung left for solo work in March 2026 the group has worked as six: Jungwon, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Sunoo and Ni-ki.

Moving through Given-Taken, Drunk-Dazed and Bite Me gives the vampire world, the tense sound and the precise group choreography in a short run. Heeseung is an important member for reading the work up to March 2026, and members, releases and years are kept separate so the six-member and seven-member eras are not mixed up.

The force of Blessed-Cursed and Future Perfect, and the softer pop side of XO and No Doubt, make following the world album by album matter more. Given-Taken, then Drunk-Dazed, then Bite Me is the way in.

Editors' take Given-Taken / Drunk-Dazed / Bite Me — three songs cover vampire storytelling and tense group choreography in a BELIFT LAB six-piece.

Japan activity score

KPOP DISCOVER original metric
No. 27/ 210 groups

No. 27 of 210 groups with recorded activity in Japan (top 13%)

  • 7Japanese releases
  • 30Japan-related tracks
  • 1Members from Japan
  • 1Official Japanese accounts

The denominator is the 210 groups, out of 525 covered by KPOP DISCOVER, whose raw score reaches at least one point. The score adds 10 points per Japanese-market release, 3 per Japan-related track, 12 per member from Japan, and 8 per official Japanese account. Japanese-market releases carry the most weight because they are the most direct evidence of activity; related tracks add track-level detail; members from Japan stand for Japanese-language communication and continuity; official accounts stand for a permanent point of contact. The weights are an editorial judgement, not a statistical optimisation, and the ranking tracks release volume in Japan closely.
