&TEAM have released two studio albums and two mini-albums to date. The albums ‘First Howling: Now’ and ‘Yukiakari’ were released in November 2023 and December 2024 respectively. As for the EPs, they dropped ‘First Howling: Me’ and ‘First Howling: We’ in December 2022 and June 2023 respectively.
&TEAM are just one of several global groups under the HYBE roster, which also includes KATSEYE. HYBE x Geffen also recently announced the formation of a new group, which includes three former contestants on Popstar Dream Academy: KATSEYE.
HYBE and Geffen are now hosting auditions for the upcoming group’s fourth and final member. This member will be determined through an elimination-based competition, much like Dream Academy.
The competition series, titled World Scout: The Final Piece, will be held in Japan and will begin streaming in early 2026. Audition applications can be submitted here until September 22.
