TRCNG was an eight-member boy group under TS Entertainment and stood for 'Teen Rising Champion in a New Generation.' The group debuted in 2017 and would be 'BAP's junior group' and would achieve moderate success on YouTube with some of their top hits, including:
'Wolf Baby' - 3.5M Views.
'Spectrum' - 1.4M Views.
'Missing' 120K Views.
Unfortunately, their variety series [TRCNG TRACKING] ended on Episode 38 during their 'MISSING' promotions in 2019. Just after the group would post a short yet sweet 2nd Debut Anniversary message to Champions before uploading song covers or self-produced songs would be when the group's account would slowly become quiet.
This would cause many fans to worry. Fans would finally hear from Taeseon and Wooyeop on November 18, 2019, stating that they have canceled their contracts and sued TS Entertainment for abuse and mismanagement.
TS Entertainment would continue to shut down privately in 2021 and delete its website. As of February 2022, all artists signed to TS have been released from their contracts.
So, where is TRCNG now in 2022?
Four of the members (Jihun, Hyunwoo, Siwoo, and Hamin (Formerly known to fans as Kangmin) have rebranded underneath the name 'APR Project' where they will release a pre-debut song called '11:59'. Before promoting the single on a Korean YouTube Channel Called: 파인애플스튜디오 pineapplestudio'. Where the members would then go on to perform a 'TRCNG Hit Medley VER Performance' for fans for the hits: Missing, Utopia, Wolf Baby, Spectrum, Paradise, and Don't Stop the Dancing.'
HaYoung would go on to produce multiple hits underneath the producer tag 'Luke' where he would post his producing work on both profiles on Instagram. He would go on to compose/produce for: GFRIEND, TOO, ONF, Golden Child, AB6IX, VICTON, TAEMIN, X1, and more. Including a popular Japanese BoyGroup called JO1.
On March 29, 2022, member JiSung announced his enlistment into the military.
Taeseon appears to have signed with a company called 'GGA Family,' where multiple posts have been made regarding Taeseon on the company's official Instagram profile.
Wooyeop is decently active on all of his social media profiles, such as YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter. He has recently posted a photo of himself in the recording studio, but no official announcement or post has been made as of yet.
