History
[edit]C-JeS Studios first began revealing information on its trainee project M.I.C (Made In C-JeS) in the late portion of 2021.[4] The group name WHIB was revealed in October 2023 and then proceeded to make their debut on November 8, 2023, with the release of a single album titled Cut-Out, which featured the song "Bang!" and the single "Dizzy".[5] The debut marked the first boy group agency released by C-JeS Studios in 13 years.[6]
They have since released the single albums Eternal Youth: Kick It (2024), Rush of Joy (2024), and Bang Out (2025).[7] Their agency announced in October 2025 that Inhong had departed from WHIB.[8] The remaining seven members of WHIB released their debut mini-album, Rock the Nation, in January 2026.[9]
