Trespass was the first song recorded and released with all seven members. Before they debuted as Revolt, the group released this track under the name “Banlan Boys”. At this point they began a YouTube channel with encouragement from their label Noir Ent. where they put out dance covers, vocal covers, and a few original songs to “test the waters” for the group’s potential. Although the song was not officially charted, the video reached 2 million views and the song over 700,000 plays on Soundcloud.

Bling Bling was the second pre-debut song released with all seven members. Just like Trespass, this track was released under the group's working name, “Banlan Boys”. The song helped further gain online attention from a slowly growing fanbase and is credited with being the catalyst for Noir Entertainment finally settling an exact date and plan for the group's official debut.

 

3 . YAMAZAKI

Type : Solo Single
Release Date : 10th June 2017
Member(s) : Loon

Yamazaki was a solo single released by Revolt's main rapper Loon early in the year right before the group was to officially debut. Initially the label felt hesitant to put out any solo releases so soon before the group debut, but after all the boys made a literal PowerPoint presentation to persuade their CEOs, Yamazaki was allowed an official release and music video.

2017 — 2018

1 . ONE SHOT

Type : Group Single
Release Date : 17th October 2017
Member(s) : All

One Shot was Revolt’s official debut single. Alongside the release of One Shot, the group rebranded themselves with a new identity; Revolt. The music video became a huge success as it was praised by fans and critics alike not only for the dynamic fast-paced choreography, but the dark and dramatic movie-esque concept.

Promotions for the single were notably unorthodox too. Aside from usual stage performances and variety show appearances, Revolt members would leave behind silver bullet casings at stages and events for their new fanbase to find. When fans discovered and analyzed the bullets, they found small engravings on them.

Each bullet had one word and when put together they created an entire message. Excited and curious fans gathered online at Revolt’s fancafé to solve the message from the bullets; The final message read... (The message is yet to be revealed!)

 

2 . BULLETPROOF

Type : Group EP (Extended Play)
Release Date : 5th February 2018
Member(s) : All

Track List (Click for songs)
1 . Sit Down!
2 . IGOHOLIC
3 . Tony Montana (Loon ft. Taejun)
4 . We Are Bulletproof
5 . Mad City (Loon, Taejun, & Yongrae Sub-Unit)
6 . Disaster

Bulletproof was the first EP (Extended Play), briefly titled after the main track We Are Bulletproof. The EP showed off the group’s overall cool, mature, and independent attitude in comparison to the many expectations of an idol’s “perfect” or “pure” image within the industry. This helped to further set the mood for the group's future sound.

As their fandom grew by the hundreds and they soon got a small taste of fame, what the boys never expected was for their main single off the EP, We Are Bulletproof, to drive them straight into an upward spiral of newfound success. The track was discovered by international fans, streamed across various platforms religiously, and skyrocketed to #19 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts within a matter of a few weeks.

In lieu of this, they began international promotions and went on a small showcase tour ranging from August 2018 – January 2019. The tour was titled Revolt: The Uprising and had one–night–only shows in Seoul, Tokyo, Hong Kong, New York, Los Angeles, Paris, and Rio. Show dates were dispersed across the span of five months so that there would be time in between for more promotion schedules, breaks, and even a little more recording in the studio. During such times the boys wrote more of their own original raps and songs as they were desperate with the hunger for self expression.

 

3 . BULLETPROOF VOL.2

Type : Group EP Repackage
Release Date : 20th November 2018
Member(s) : All

Track List (Click for songs)
1 . Sit Down!
2 . IGOHOLIC

5 . Zero For Conduct (품행제로) (Loon, Taejun, & Yongrae Sub-Unit)
6 . Get Down
7 . Mad City (Loon, Taejun, & Yongrae Sub-Unit)
8 . Disaster

Bulletproof Vol.2 was the repackaged EP of Bulletproof which featured two new singles from Revolt; Zero For Conduct (품행제로) and Get Down. The repackage was released later in the showcase tour schedule and first performed by the boys while on stage in their Paris show on the 1st of December 2018.

Their singles helped to ramp up excitement for both the long awaited showcase finale in Rio on the 6th of January 2019 as well as getting fans to anticipate what the future held for Revolt in the coming new year. During the finale show, Revolt teased fans with the promise of a full album to come soon.

 

4 . WANT

Type : Solo Single
Release Date : 12th December, 2018
Member(s) : Star
Video Link : Click Here

Want was a surprise solo release by the group’s main dancer Star which quickly garnered attention for the slow, smooth, and enigmatic choreography created by the dancer himself as well as sensual vocality. The song received some backlash from fans and netizens for being “too suggestive”, but regardless of this it reached #23 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts.

Chapter 19: i was so excited to see that this was updated and i honestly had so much fun reading the prologue !! you write so well that it's really easy to envision and feel everything that is going on within the group - i kid you not, i made the "e u e" face when hyuk arrived at the restaurant bc i knew tension was going to arise and i'm here for all that drama lmao
honestly, a bit shocked that the maknae is fOURTEEN : O A WHOLE BABY FJDSKLFSA the poor boy stuck in this group with these petty and troubled hyungs but i love how he steps up despite his age.
+ whenever i saw yejun's name, i shed a proud tear like "that's my baby he made it he's in this story"
the visuals were amazing and i actually loved that you put them in, including the messenger layout! it personally helped me while reading bc i have trouble reading just a bunch of text without some sort of breaks here and there so i thought it was a really cool thing to do!
overall, this chapter was such a fun read and if they were already having this much trouble six months into their debut, i can't wait to see how everything has changed, for better or for worse, when we fast forward to the present.

Chapter 19: hello omg i was so happy to see that the story updated! i hope you've been doing well and taking care of yourself! it was nice to see hyukjin really being a leader and showing loon some form of comfort during such a nerve-wrecking time in the first part of the prologue before he just... disappeared. it kinda made me feel bad for juwon who had to buy the members a free meal in order to try and win their hearts (but wenxing would definitely accept the free meal). but the way thorn outed the members out for it going out with the newest member to hyukjin even though the latter just ditched them... it's really nice to see that the final lineup you chose had characters with different personalities (i haven't been very good with reading other people's apps so... but kudos to you for reading so many of them!!). from the way yejun cried to loon's excitement and taejun's worries when they got their first win, these group of boys really seem so different but at the same time, they're mostly fighting for the same dream. i also really loved how you portrayed the tension between hyukjin and juwon but the whole thing reminded me of that meme with the 'welcome home cheater' sign. poor taejun who had to try and ease up the tension even though he's literally the youngest and has to calm down the members who are much older than he is. the entire group dynamic already seems to be so on edge but they're only a six month old group in this prologue and i'm definitely really interested in seeing how they would act around each other as the years play out and as their secrets start getting exposed. i also really love it when groups have a chinese line so i'm glad that loon and wenxing seem to be close with each other (for now)!

anyways, thank you so much for this prologue!!

Chapter 19: :0 The prologue! This was such a fun read, it was super interesting to see the unsteadiness of the group from early on. It's good to see the manager being a solid presence for the group, despite the leader drama.
Honestly that had to be the most fun part, seeing the others and their first impressions of Juwon as a member. The company really put him in a tough spot but I mean, Hyukjin sorta put everyone else in a tough spot so. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Super super interested to see how his character is gonna develop and how much he'll come to terms with Juwon's presence by present-day in the story.
You can also already see who the more reserved members are as compared to the forward ones. Getting to know their individual situations and how they work inside the group struggles is gonna be fun! I think this was honestly an awesome first look at everything, and the edits were fun!! I think it helped pace things well and gave a good indication of when we were changing scenes. Thank you for putting in so much effort!! This was a really good birthday present incidentally. ^_^

Chapter 19: ehm, hello, hope you don't mind a bystander coming through ;u;
this was quite the read c: i feel elated for their first taste of success but at the same time, their first win seemed so bitter-sweet (mainly) because of the secrets they have, they couldn't really enjoy the long awaited success :" i've only read a few of their apps (and probably won't read the others because gonna enjoy this as a reader and be surprised by their secrets ;) ) but them boys do deserve it since they've worked hard ;A;
the effect of hyukjin's absence, whew. and the company bringing tension with a new unofficial leader instead of pointing out someone from the group to temporarily fill in? double whew. maybe that was their intention, bring someone new to threaten hyukjin's position? like wow, look at him showing up after thorn informed him owo gotta give it to juwon though (the way to someone's heart is through their stomach--or through freebies lmao) for handling the situation and undeterred by hyukjin. ...i hope the boys didn't get indigestion from all the tension haha also, the maKNAE'S FOURTEEN--HE"S A BABY. A BABY.

Chapter 12: The fans in the comments, particularly in regards to Yongrae are SENDING me...It's so realistic you have to laugh, assuming they know the behind-the-scenes and what their idols want it's just so funny to me.
