Editor's note

MONSTA X's journey from survival show to K-pop force

A septet forged on Starship's 'No Mercy' in 2015, they've navigated scandals and genre shifts to build a loyal following.

For a quick sense of their style, check out 'Polaroid' for its melodic warmth and 'Black Swan' for something grittier. Those two tracks frame their musical duality pretty well.

MONSTA X matters because they've consistently pushed K-pop's boundaries while weathering real-world storms. Songs like 'Polaroid' and 'Black Swan' show their range from heartfelt pop to darker, experimental sounds. Their 2021 English single 'Middle of the Night' broke through globally, proving their appeal extends far beyond Korea.

They debuted in 2015 after the survival show 'No Mercy', starting with a hard-hitting hip-hop sound on 'Trespass'. Over the years, they've blended pop, R&B, and electronica, while facing member departures and public controversies that tested their resilience.

Archive material and source history

MONSTA X formed through Starship Entertainment's survival show 'No Mercy' and debuted in 2015 with the album 'Trespass.' The group originally had seven members: Shownu, Wonho, Minhyuk, Kihyun, Hyungwon, Joohoney, and I.M. Their early sound leaned toward hard-hitting hip-hop, but they've since worked across pop, R&B, and electronica on albums like 'The Clan Pt. 2: Guilty' and 'All About Luv.'

In 2019, Wonho left the group after allegations about marijuana use and debts surfaced. The remaining members continued as six. Two years later, I.M posted lyrics that drew criticism for being offensive to transgender people; MONSTA X apologized and released a statement against discrimination.

Their 2021 English-language single 'Middle of the Night' gained international attention. Songs like 'Shoot Out,' 'Follow,' and 'Lost In The Dream' show their range from aggressive tracks to smoother pop-R&B. They also collaborated with Sebastian Yatra on 'Magnetic.'
