Lore
Loser Crew, comprised of members Sorry, But, and Love U,[NT 2] debuted on June 2, 2021[NT 1] with their first album and song called "Batdurung" (밭두렁 Batdureong). "Batdurung" is a self-produced song based on electronic sound with a traditional Korean performance. Their next song was supposed to be "Golden Bori" (황금 보리 Hwanggeum Bori), but in 2022, they revealed that their next release is actually a hip-hop song called "Pang Pang" (팡팡). They were expected to disband in 2022, although recent evidence has shown otherwise.
The group can usually be seen at Andromeda, Pluto, and underground. Their fandom's name is called "Nurung" (누렁이 Nureongi). Previously, the members considered the names "Dukgu" (덕구 Deokgu) and "Bokse" (복세 Bokse).[2]
