CIX achieved remarkable success just six days after their debut, securing their first win on ‘The Show’ on July 30, 2019, marking one of the fastest K-pop acts to earn this milestone. The quintet launched on July 23, 2019, with their debut EP, ‘Hello Chapter 1: Hello, Stranger,’ featuring the lead single ‘Movie Star.’ This initial release quickly demonstrated commercial appeal, selling 70,000 copies within two months. Expanding their global footprint, CIX signed with Warner Music Japan in August 2019, releasing a Japanese version of their debut EP on October 23, 2019. They continued their narrative progression with their second Korean EP, ‘Hello Chapter 2: Hello, Strange Place,’ released on November 19, 2019, an album recognized for addressing social issues relevant to youth.
The group’s enduring impact and performance excellence were further celebrated in 2024 with the prestigious 30th Anniversary Dream Concert Hall of Fame Dream Global Award. As a dynamic quartet, CIX continues to deliver intricate narratives and compelling performances, consistently engaging their dedicated global fanbase and pushing artistic boundaries.
