K-pop band Seventeen says its latest EP Your Choice and lead single Ready To Love show off a more mature concept and sound but the motivations behind its music remain the same.

Formed in 2015 in South Korea, the band has racked up more than 2 billion streams worldwide, and is best known for hits such as HOME;RUN and Left & Right. Seventeen is riding on the smash success of two back-to-back albums last year - ; (Semicolon) and Heng:garae each sold over a million copies.
