Career
2015: Debut with The Romeo and comeback with Zero In
At the end of April 2015, it was announced that Japanese company Pony Canyon made a partnership with South Korean agency CT Entertainment to debut a boygroup named Romeo, planning their debut in May. A representative from CT Entertainment told the media, "There have been cases where Japanese music labels will sign on popular Korean acts, but it's unlikely for a Japanese music label to want to start a Korean group. This project is happening thanks to the great trust between Pony Canyon and CT Entertainment." Following this announcement, their agency released a batch of teasers featuring the members, starting with Hyunkyung and ending with Yunsung and Minsung, and finally a full group teaser on April 27. Their agency released another teaser on April 30, this time featuring member Yunsung covering Michael Jackson's Man in the Mirror before releasing the group's first teaser for their debut song "Lovesick" on May 2. The full music video for "Lovesick" was released on May 7, alongside with their debut EP The Romeo. The group made its debut on stage on M! Countdown the same day.
On October 28, it was announced that Romeo was going to make a comeback on November 5 with their second mini-album Zero In. On October 30, the group released their first teaser for title song "Target" followed on November 1 by a second teaser.
