The world’s first hearing-impaired idol group ‘Big Ocean’ has been selected as the K-pop Rookie of the Month by Billboard.

Billboard, an American music media outlet, selected Big Ocean as the K-Pop Rookie of the Month for September 2024 in an article titled, “Big Ocean Is K-Pop’s First Hard-of-Hearing Act Finding Support From the Industry & Chart-Toppers” on its homepage on the 20th (local time).

Billboard focused on the birth of Big Ocean and analyzed Big Ocean, saying, “As the definition of K-pop has expanded from just Korean pop singers to artists representing various countries, cultures, and languages, Big Ocean not only has the appearance of a handsome and shining star with international appeal, but also inspires listeners with his own story and music, which is one of K-pop’s core messages.”

Big Ocean introduced their recently released song “SLOW (Feat. Young K (DAY6))” as a song that contains the message that if you move forward slowly and steadily, you can do anything. He said, “I’m really grateful for the help not only from Young K senior but also from outside the company. Without that help, we wouldn’t be here now,” expressing his gratitude to “Pado” (fandom name).

Meanwhile, Big Ocean released the song ‘Slow’ on the 11th of last month, which contains their support for the national team participating in the 2024 Paris Olympics and Paralympics.
