U-KISS turned 10 today- Where are they now?

[Starry Skies]

Long story short. Japan. They're currently on tour in Japan and are planning to release their 15th Japanese single album on 10/10 in celebration of their 10th anniversary. Since most people lost touch with them here is a break down of what they've been up to.

Current Members

• Soohyun is currently doing his military service. He should be discharged on September 1, 2019.
  
• Kiseop composed a few of the group's latest releases. His song "Chair' will be included in their upcoming Japanese release. He recently opened a photography focused instagram account and a youtube channel where he has been posting vlog type videos weekly. He'll be launching his own clothing brand next month as well.
  

• Eli gained some recognition after appearing on 'Mr. House Husband' with his family last year. This year he isn't as busy and seems to be spending more time with his family when he's not promoting with Ukiss but he'll often share updates of his son on ig.

• Hoon also released a couple of his compositions in Japan. He was recently cast in the web drama "What's Wrong in Joseon." 
  
• Jun has been promoting with UNB after reaching first place on The Unit. He gained some positive attention for acting in "Avengers Social Club' and "Goodbye to Goodbye". He'll be appearing on Law of the Jungle next month and there is a possibility that he will release a solo album soon.
  

Former members

• Alexander has mostly been active in the Philippines. He released some music after leaving the group but has mostly focused on acting/hosting. His latest music related release was a collab with Marucci. 
  

Even though he was one of the first to leave the group he still talks about Ukiss and remains in contact with some of  the members.

 

 

• Kibum released some music in Japan as Allen Kibum after leaving the group, but now he has his own restaurant in Korea called Mystic Majesty
  
• Dongho appeared on a few variety shows with his family such as "A Man Who Feeds the Dog" and "The Return of Superman." He's no longer active on social media but still seems to be working as a DJ under the name Rushin Justin.
  

(Alexander attended one of his events last year)

• AJ released some music as a solo artist under the name Siyoon. He auditioned for The Unit last year but didn't make it .Earlier this year he reunited with his orginial group Paran for a performance on Sugarman 2.
  
• Kevin seems to be focusing on his solo activities in Japan as well as releasing covers on his youtube channel. Like Xander, Kevin continues to keep in touch with the current members.
  

 

Although they never had any huge success, I think Ukiss deserves some praise for being able to survive 10 years in the industry while under a company as incompetent as NH Media. Are there any Ukiss songs that you think deserve more love?

[Aquamaraqua]

They deserve many more years together! Congrats boys.

Ukiss is amazing. I am not an active fan anymore but they will always be my favorite kpop group.

Congrats on their 10th anniversary.
