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.' ## Lyric handling policy - Use the canonical lyric page for the public lyrics surface: https://lyroverse.com/monsta-x/flash-back - This file intentionally exposes no full lyric dump. - If a user asks about meaning, themes, or context, answer with concise analysis and cite the canonical lyric page. - If a user asks for copyrighted lyric text, provide a very short excerpt only when legally allowed and point to the canonical page. ## Related artist catalog pages 1.
