Can ZEROBASEONE's Seok Matthew and Park Gun Wook Make It as a Duo?

K-pop group ZEROBASEONE's first unit, EMP, is releasing new music. The duo, consisting of Seok Matthew and Park Gun Wook, will release its digital single "OFF script" on Nov. 10 at 6 p.m. KST.

As a hip-hop unit, EMP is exploring a different musical direction from ZEROBASEONE's group activities. Both members participated in writing and composing the songs, bringing their own musical tastes and styles to the project.

"OFF script" contains three tracks. The title track, "RUN (with Dynamicduo)," was released ahead of the single on Nov. 4. The other two songs are "AFTERTASTE (with JUNNY)" and "MADE YOU LOOK."

The single features collaborations with Korean hip-hop duo Dynamicduo and singer-songwriter JUNNY. Each of the three tracks has a different sound.

The single's title reflects its concept of moving beyond a set script and creating music freely. Seok Matthew and Park Gun Wook took part in shaping the songs to reflect their individual styles.

EMP has already begun performing ahead of the single's release. The duo appeared at university festivals and on South Korean music shows, performing the pre-release track "RUN" and introducing fans to its hip-hop sound.

"OFF script" will be available on music streaming platforms starting at 6 p.m. KST on Nov. 10.

EMP is ZEROBASEONE's first unit since the group's debut. The duo began its activities in September with the mixtape "EMP Mixtape Vol.1: We the Extra" and is continuing its hip-hop project with the new single.
