ASC2NT
ASC2NT opens a new musical chapter with “Replay”, a seasonally themed track with soft vocals that warm the heart and evoke nostalgia.
The South Korean male group ASC2NT, active since 2024, released the official MV for “Replay”, their new digital single, marking an important milestone in their career after several previous releases and lineup changes. This video, uploaded on YouTube, perfectly illustrates the emotional and cinematic aesthetic the group aims to explore with this winter project.
Formed under NEWWAYS COMPANY, ASC2NT debuted on May 7, 2024, with the single “EXPECTING TOMOROW”, gaining recognition as a versatile group capable of alternating between powerful sounds and sensitive ballads. The group’s name symbolizes a constant ascent to new heights, reflecting both ambition and determination in their musical journey.
The group is composed of five members: KARAM (leader and main vocalist), JAY (main rapper and dancer), REON (rapper and sub-vocal), KYLE (sub-vocal and maknae), and HYOWON (maknae since 2025). Following INJUN’s hiatus and departure for health reasons in 2025, HYOWON joined the group, bringing new dynamics and completing the lineup ahead of promotions for “Replay”.
In “Replay”, ASC2NT presents a song with delicate melodies and introspective lyrics, exploring the emotions of a heart stuck in memories after a breakup, as if time repeats the same moments in a loop. This track also serves as the first installment of a seasonal music series, where each release could represent an emotional universe linked to a different season, according to their media and official social media indications.
On their official social media, the members frequently share teasers, behind-the-scenes content, and messages for their fans, the “EPPY”, confirming the group’s commitment to a close relationship with their international community and the emotional storytelling of their releases.
“Replay” marks the beginning of a more introspective and seasonal musical journey for ASC2NT, as the group prepares to continue their activities with upcoming releases and performances.
