SEVENTEEN is celebrated as a "self-producing" idol group, actively participating in songwriting, music production, and choreography, among other facets of their music and performances. Organized into three units—hip-hop, vocal, and performance—each specializing in distinct areas, they perform cohesively as a single group.

SEVENTEEN has earned titles such as Performance Kings, Theater Kids of K-pop, and K-pop Performance Powerhouse from both domestic and international media outlets, underscoring their influence in the industry.


The name SEVENTEEN originates from the concept of 13 members + 3 units + 1 group, symbolizing the division of the 13 members into three different units that unite to form a single, cohesive group. Originally, the name was intended to reflect the group's initial plan to debut with a total of 17 members, including four former pre-debut trainees: Jang Do Yoon, Samuel Kim, Shin Dong Jin, and Yao Mingming.
