The agency also unveiled the new logo of the band's upcoming song on Oneus's official social media channels. Made up of hearts and spades, the image relays the message that there is no beginning or end and that everything is connected.

Oneus debuted in January 2019 with the EP “Light Us.” The band has six members: Ravn, Seo Ho, Lee Do, Keon Hee, Hwan Woong and Xion.

Its most recent EP “Blood Moon” dropped in November and sold more than 170,000 albums during the first week of its release. The lead track “Luna” also earned Oneus its first No. 1 on MBC’s “Show Champion” (2012-), a weekly TV music show.

The band embarked on a tour of 14 cities in the United States in February. Oneus is set to hold concerts in Japan on April 24 and May 2.

RBW is home to K-pop acts Mamamoo, Onewe and Vromance.
