LNGSHOT (롱샷, stylized in all caps and pronounced “long shot”) is a four-member South Korean boy group under Jay Park’s label MORE VISION. Formed in 2025 and officially debuted on January 13, 2026 with their first EP Shot Callers, LNGSHOT is Jay Park’s very first boy group project — and many are already calling them one of the most exciting rookie groups of 2026.

Based in Seoul, South Korea, the group blends sharp hip-hop, smooth R&B, and powerful performances with raw confidence and genuine talent. The name “LNGSHOT” represents their underdog mindset: even when the odds seem long, they’re determined to make it big. Jay Park handpicked every member because they share his love for creative freedom, real music, and staying hungry.
Jay Park’s Vision for LNGSHOT
Jay Park, the legendary Korean-American artist and founder of MORE VISION, didn’t just sign LNGSHOT — he built them from scratch. He personally scouted and mentored the members, co-produced their music, and gave them the freedom to co-write and contribute ideas.
Jay has said he wants LNGSHOT to bring back authenticity and the “cool, fun spirit” that he feels is sometimes missing in today’s K-pop. The boys are encouraged to stay true to themselves, which is why their music feels fresh, confident, and full of personality.
