S (에스) is a South Korean trio formed by Kangta, Lee Ji-hoon, and Shin Hye-sung. The group made their debut in 2003 under the SM Entertainment label and, after an 11-year break, released a new mini-album in 2014.
History
S launched their debut album Fr.In.Cl (Friends in Classic) in 2003. They made a comeback on October 27, 2014, with the mini-album Autumn Breeze. The songs were written and produced by member Kangta, who sought to blend his unique musical approach with the group's vocal harmonies, focusing on ballad compositions. Prior to the album release, on October 18, they performed the lead single "Without You (하고 싶은 거 다)" at the SM Town concert held in Shanghai. The accompanying music video, which premiered on October 24, included an appearance by Kwon Yuri of Girls' Generation. Following the release, S promoted the track on multiple South Korean music shows, including a performance on Immortal Songs 2 on November 3.
