From debut to now

  • 2015
    Arriving from Pony Canyon Korea / CT Entertainment, the group began as a fresh-sounding boy group of the early third generation.
  • 2016
    Miro showed a grown-up, synth-pop-leaning face, and Nightmare widened the range beyond the early freshness.
  • 2017
    Later work set emotional songs beside harder dance tracks, leaving a stage image unlike early ROMEO.
  • 2018
    The Japanese single Juliet put the pairing of group name and fandom name into the catalogue itself.
  • 2023
    Appearances on Peak Time by some members and Hyunkyung joining KNK created a way back to ROMEO itself.

KPOP DISCOVER's ROMEO note

ROMEO debuted in May 2015 from Pony Canyon Korea / CT Entertainment with Seunghwan, Yunsung, Milo, Minsung, Kyle, Hyunkyung and Kangmin. The cool air of the debut song Lovesick was typical of early third-generation boy groups, yet that shade of freshness stood out even among peers at the time. The fandom name Juliet pairs with the group name, and in 2018 it became the title of a Japanese single.

For a first listen, Lovesick gives the atmosphere of the debut and Target confirms the catchy signature. Miro, from 2016, changes the impression: the sound is arranged toward synth pop and the temperature is calmer, which shows the group was never only about freshness. Nightmare that same year stretched the range further, making clear that ROMEO had not been tied to one direction from the start.

Without U, from 2017, pushes the emotional line to the front and stands as the key later work. In 2023 appearances on Peak Time by some members and Hyunkyung joining KNK drew attention, and listeners began tracing their way back from there. This is a group whose entry point can be what the members did afterwards, not only the years when it was active. Lovesick, then Miro, then Without U runs from the fresh start through grown-up synth pop to the emotional later song.

Editors' take Lovesick / Miro / Without U — three songs running from a fresh start through grown-up synth pop to the emotional later work, from the seven-piece group at Pony Canyon Korea / CT Entertainment.

Trivia worth knowing

Name

ROMEO and Juliet pair up as group name and fandom name, an arrangement that sticks in the memory.

Entry point

Lovesick, Target and Miro sum up ROMEO as a fresh-toned third-generation boy group in a short sitting.

Line-up

The picture changes around the departure of Milo, so the early seven-member form and the later six-member form matter separately.

Connection

Hyunkyung later joined KNK, which gives newcomers a way to reach ROMEO from that side.

Japan

Juliet is a Japanese single and belongs beside the Korean catalogue rather than inside it.

Rediscovery

Since Peak Time, renewed exposure for the members has sent some viewers back to the original videos.
