Boy band Xodiac released its digital single "Always," just two weeks after its debut last month.

"Always" is a medium-tempo acoustic R&B track that tells the story of a shy guy in love, as opposed to the fast-tempo debut track "Throw A Dice" that the band presented on April 25. The band also released "Calling," a pre-debut dance track on March 13.

The nine-member band was known as OCJ Newbies during its trainee period. There are six Korean members — Hyunsik, Lex, Beomsoo, Wain, Gyumin and Dayin —, two members from Hong Kong — Sing and Leo — and one member from Indonesia, Zayyan.

OCJ is shorten for One Cool Jacso Entertainment, a Hong Kong-based entertainment agency founded by actor Louis Koo. Girl group Skyle consisting of Korean and Chinese members is currently under the agency.

Of the nine, five members — Lex, Hyunsik, Beomsoo, Gyumin and Sing — featured on "Always."

Xodiac aims to run under a flexible structure where different members take part in different songs according to their talents. The three songs that have been released so far will be included on a physical album planned for release in the future.
