For more than a decade, Seventeen’s Jeonghan and Joshua have shared the spotlight with 11 bandmates in one of K-pop’s best-selling groups. Now they get it to themselves with “Dreamscape,” their first album as the duo JxJ.

The record is also Jeonghan’s first new music since he completed South Korea’s mandatory military service this summer. While he served, Seventeen kept performing without him, and at times he watched his bandmates from the audience, among the group’s fans, known as Carats. Joshua spent the same stretch producing songs of his own and sending them to their company.
