[SportsSeoul.com | Reporter Lee GeonHee ] Daniel Henney’s agency has been in the midst of preparing a global band, and now their debut is coming ahead.

On the morning of August 9th, Daniel Henney’s Agency, Apple of the Eye revealed that “three member boy band Royal Pirates- who made their start in California, USA- will release a digital single called “Shoutout” at the end of the month, and thus make their debut.” Royal Pirates, consisting of members Moon (Kim Moonchul)- in charge of guitar and vocals, bassist James, and drummer Sooyoon (Kim Sooyoon), have enough skill to set themselves apart from existing boy bands in the industry.

The agency explains, “After their training period, the Royal Pirates are unlike any other idols who make their debut on music stages. In 2008, while still in Los Angeles, they built their foundations as global musicians through training and performances in clubs.” In addition, “videos of Royal Pirates’ performances that have been uploaded on youtube have reached a high number of views and queries, and have resulted in the formation of America and Asia- based fanclubs.”

On the 14th & 15th of this month Royal Pirates will perform at SuperSonic 2013, having competed with odds of 50:1. Having been selected as Super Rookie, they will participate in the campaign song project “Hello Super Sonic.” They have already recorded with “Song King” Cho Yongpil and other senior singers, and are expected to perform on stage on the 15th.

The agency says, “The members of Royal Pirates are artists who write, compose, sing, and perform their own songs, and have versatile language skills,” adding, “with a differentiated sound (one that sets them apart from others) and authentic message, [they] will present a new model in the global kpop market” hinting at the company’s strong confidence in the band.
