EXO's Kai, Sehun to debut as duo EXO-KASE on Dec. 1

Kai and Sehun, members of the K-pop boy band EXO, will debut as a new duo named EXO-KASE on December 1. Their first EP, "Waking Up The City," will be released through their agency, SM Entertainment. Both Kai and Sehun were born in 1994, earning them the nickname "94-liners" from fans. The agency has described this act as a "visual performance unit," combining Kai's "hot guy" charisma with Sehun's "cool guy" image.

In the K-pop industry, a unit, or sub-unit, is a smaller group created by members of an existing band to release music with a distinct concept. EXO, which debuted in 2012, has previously released music through units like EXO-CBX and EXO-SC, the latter including Sehun. The seven-track EP, also known as a mini album in Korea, features various moods, including the title track and solo songs by each member.

Sehun commented on the unit during EXO's encore concert, praising their performance as "incredible."
