S.Coups X Mingyu to be the first all hip-hop sub-unit of SEVENTEEN

S.Coups is the official leader of SEVENTEEN and also the head of the group's hip-hop unit, which consists of four members: Vernon, S.Coups, Mingyu, and Wonwoo.

SEVENTEEN is uniquely divided into three performance-based units within the 13-member group: the hip-hop unit, the vocal unit, and the dance unit. These units were introduced as part of a strategic structure created by the group's agency to highlight each member's strengths and allow for diverse musical output.

Beyond these original units, additional sub-units have emerged, strategically aligned with the group's military enlistment schedule, except for the first one, BSS. The second one was Jeonghan x Wonwoo, who were also the first two members of SEVENTEEN to enlist in the military. The next was Hoshi x Woozi, whose enlistment is scheduled for September 2025, following the release of their album.

This pattern has led fans to believe that Mingyu may be next in line for enlistment, especially with the newly announced hip-hop sub-unit project. S.Coups, however, has been exempt from military service due to health reasons.

The announcement of the new hip-hop unit has left fans excitedly anticipating a new project on the horizon, but also aware that another member may soon begin his military duties.
