However, the duo also has a subunit that consists of one member, so basically, it is a solo project. Their first subunit was announced in 2018 by debuting Kim Hyo-bin with the release of his first solo single titled “Last Night (어젯밤)”. It was his first digital single and debuted as a solo singer under the group’s subunit, and the single consists of two same songs but the one is just the instrumental version of the song. In the same year as their 5th single, Kim Hyo-bin also filled the OST for the drama Phantom the Secret Angel. He sang two songs for that drama, which were released on June 2nd and June 25th, respectively, titled “Find Her (그녀를 찾아 주세요)” and “Me, Too (잘살고 있다고 생각은 마).” Until now, their last activity was the release of the 5th single, and Hyobin’s participation in the drama’s OST.
