Skye (formerly In2It; Korean인투잇)[1] is a South Korean boy band consisting of six members, Yoo Ji-ahn, Jung Yeon-tae, Hwang In-ho, Han Hyun-uk, Lee In-pyo, and Isaac Voo, who previously participated in Mnet's 2016 survival show Boys24.[2][3] The group debuted on October 26, 2017, with Carpe Diem.[4] Originally an eight-piece ensemble, Jinsub departed from the group in March 2018, while Sunghyun departed on September 4, 2019.[5][6]

Name[edit]

The group name, In2It, gives the direct meaning "Intuit" as well the phrase "In to it", which together means that "the boys will make fans fall into their intuitive charms".[7]

History[edit]

2017–2019: Formation and debut[edit]

All of the members of In2It came from the pre-debut program Boys24, the contestants of which made a total of 260 concert performances during their one year and six month Mesa Hall Concert performance and training period from early 2016 to late 2017.[8] In early 2016, a total of 5,500 applicants auditioned for Boys24, from which less than thirty people were selected as Boys24 members. Only eight members were selected to debut in the final group, In2It.[9]

In2It in 2017

In2It debuted with their EP Carpe Diem which signifies the shift from 'boy' to 'man'. The mini album, released on October 26, 2017, consists of songs from composers Duble Sidekick, Cha Cha Malone and Paul Rein. The lead single, "Amazing", is a dance-pop song with chill trap sounds and a tropical beat.[10] The music video for the lead single "Amazing" was filmed in Kolsai Lake National Park, Kazakhstan, on September 13, 2017.[11][12]

In2It made their debut on M Countdown on October 26, 2017, with the song "Amazing" from the album Carpe Diem, and on November 9 the song charted fifth place on the M Countdown Chart.[13] In2It held 'In2It showcase "Carpe Diem" in Japan' from December 3 to 10, 2017.[14] In2It held four concerts called "In2It Winter Paradise" in South Korea on December 24 and 25, 2017.[15] In2It attended "2018 Taipei High City" New Year's Eve Countdown Party on December 31, 2017.[16] In2It held their first Asia Tour in Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia on February 2, February 4, and February 10, 2018.[17]

On March 26, 2018, MMO Entertainment announced that Kim Ri-ho would not be continuing with the group as he had been suffering from Ménière's disease.[18]

On April 19, 2018, In2It made their comeback with a single titled "Snapshot".[19] In2It performed the song "Snapshot" as well as "Be Bop Baby" at KCON Japan on April 15, 2018, ahead of their comeback.[20] They further performed at "Power of K Live" in Japan on April 30,[21][22] and at "Dream Concert" held in Seoul World Cup Stadium on May 12, 2018.[23]

In2It released their second single titled "Into The Night Fever" featuring three songs "Sorry For My English", "Geronimo", and "It's U" on July 26, 2018.[24] In2It performed at Korea Music Festival held in Sky Gocheok Stadium on August 1, 2018.[25] In2It performed at KCON LA on August 11, 2018[26]

On September 4, 2019, it was announced Sunghyun would leave the group.[6]

2020–2022: Departure from MMO and military service[edit]

After discussions with both the members and their agency, the group's contract was terminated on January 31, 2020, and the group would move forward independently.[27]

Due to Covid-19, the Korean members decided to fulfill their mandatory military service together while their foreign member, Isaac, stayed in his home country of Malaysia. Their leader, Inpyo, returned from the military on May 8, 2022, right after finishing his last performance for the military musical "A Song Of Meissa" where he participated alongside fellow In2it member Hyunuk and EXO's Chanyeol.[28]

Jiahn, Inpyo, and Hyunuk held an online and offline fanmeeting[29] while Isaac was still in Malaysia preparing for his solo debut after signing a solo contract with Prodigee Asia.[30] Yeontae finished his military service in August 2022, while Inho finished his in September 2022.[citation needed]

On March 16, 2023, it was announced that In2it would be rebranding under the new group name, Skye.[31]
