During a media showcase in Seoul, Jiho expressed his happiness at finally realizing his dream after four years as a trainee. Brian, another member, spoke about his motivation to excel after the "Boys Planet" experience, aiming to leave a lasting impression as part of Ampers&One.

Jiho revealed his initial concerns about an uncertain future following his exclusion from the final lineup on "Boys Planet." He appreciated the opportunity to join Ampers&One, recognizing it as a chance to continue pursuing his aspirations.

The group introduced its debut single album, titled "Ampersand One," featuring three tracks – "On and On," "Sweet & Sour," and "Sheesh." The album encapsulates themes of resilience in the face of challenges and the exploration of first love.

Ampers&One's launch has garnered attention from music enthusiasts, intrigued by the group's potential trajectory. In the highly competitive K-pop landscape, comparisons are being drawn with other rising boy groups like Riize, Boynextdoor, and Zerobaseone.

Siyun, a member of Ampers&One, highlighted the group's comfortable and friendly charm as a distinguishing factor. He believes the relatable lyrics and the diverse cultural backgrounds of the members will bring a unique and colorful aspect to their music.

Closing the showcase, Kamden expressed the team's aspiration to clinch a rookie award, underscoring their ambition in the competitive K-pop industry.
