Boy band Nchive debuted today with its three-track EP "Drive," hoping to drive a new trend in K-pop with its music and performance.

"We want to win the Grammys," member Yuchan told reporters during a showcase held Tuesday at the Ilchi Art Hall in southern Seoul.

"Our ultimate goal is to win the Grammy Awards, but we're going to take it step by step until we reach that goal," member Ha.L said. "For this album, we want to be nominated No. 1 on TV shows. We may not be from a big agency, but our hearts are big."

Nchive is a new six-member boy band debuting from the newly-founded agency Aubemoon Studio. Its members are N, Juyoung, Yuchan, Kangsan, Ha.L and E.aN.

The band's first album includes lead track "Racer" along with B-side tracks "Dive in" and "Fireworks." "Racer" is a powerful hip-hop dance track with "strong and heavy sounds" that expresses the members' passion and untamed will, according to the agency.

"It's not just us who have been waiting for our debut album 'Drive,' but our friends, family and fans alike," Kangsan said. "We will pay back all that time of waiting, so we ask for your love and support."
