The second new member of Korean boy band U-Kiss has been revealed, according to their agency NH Media on Wednesday. NH made the announcement through a press release, introducing a new member named AJ, who was the youngest member of Korean group Paran in 2005. He will take on the vocals and rap for U-Kiss.The agency explained that AJ continued to receive training in dancing and singing for three years after Paran disbanded due to the members wanting to pursue solo careers or enlist in the military. Last month, NH announced that they were going to replace members Ki-bum and Alexander, terminating their contract with Ki-bum while having Alexander remain with the agency to pursue his solo activities. Then just this Monday, NH revealed that a new member named Hoon, currently a student majoring in theater at Dongguk University, would be the first member to fill up the vacant spot.U-Kiss (Ubiquitous Korean International Super Star) made their debut with single album "New Generation" in September 2008.
