Xdinary Heroes is a Korean rock boy band that debuted under the label JYP Entertainment in December of 2021. Members GUNIL, JUNGSU, GAON, O.DE, JUN HAN, and JOOYEON gather to showcase a unique synergy that is reflected in their dynamic music and performances. The band proved their extraordinary popularity, positive public reception, and musical talent when they won Best New Male Artist and Best Band Performance at the 2022 MAMA AWARDS.
This past July, Xdinary Heroes held their first official fan meeting since their debut, demonstrating their status as the heroes of live performances. They showed off a unique rock band energy and led the audience to sing along passionately. With thrilling live stages that excelled the full band's charm, the concert hall transformed into a rock festival site. Additionally, the setlist contained an abundance of variety, including a slower song that gave fans the opportunity to wind down and enjoy the emotions that come with slow rock ballads. Throughout the fan meeting, Xdinary Heroes gifted fans with special stages exclusive to the fan meeting to express enthusiastic affection and gratitude for their Villains (official fandom name).
Their recently released album, "Livelock," captured high anticipation and attention from Villains and the general
public even before its release as every member participated in songwriting and composing. The ‘Instrumental Live Sampler’ and ‘Track Video’ especially represented their constant musical growth, allowing the group to reach even more audiences around the globe. Through this, they captured the hearts of various music fans worldwide.
The album name, "Livelock," was conceived from the IT term meaning "infinite repetition”. The album represents the members’ “true self” found through infinite repetitive trial and error, and their transformation into achieving confidence without hesitation. While their previous album "Deadlock" portrayed members in a “deadlock" state, this album brought another narrative into their world, expressing their bold willingness to break through repetition and the process of “breaking the deadlock”. Notably, the message of running toward freedom was revealed throughout the album, including lyrics such as "Drive for liberation" from the title track "Break the Brake" and "I’m fighting to break all my memories" from the track "Enemy”.
With this album, Xdinary Heroes continue on their journey to being “the next K-pop super band”. After the tour announcement, they have quickly garnered keen attention from local fans and global fans alike as they anticipate making memories together through their first world tour.
