Name

The name "Atlas" holds a dual meaning, referring both to the Titan in Greek mythology who bears the weight of the world, and to a map, symbolizing exploration. As a group of seven young men, Atlas embodies the spirit of adventurers, journeying across the world, through the stars, and within stories that invite others to explore alongside them.

Their official fan club is named "A-lis," a word that means "wings" in Latin. If Atlas is the explorer, then A-lis are the wings that lift and accompany them, soaring together into new realms.^[2]

History

XOXO Entertainment revealed the name of its first boy band, Atlas, on September 3, 2021.^[3] All members of Atlas had previously trained under 4nologue before officially signing with XOXO Entertainment.

On December 7, 2021, Atlas made their debut with their first single launch event titled "Mayday Mayday", held at the Central World foreyard in Bangkok.^[4] They were joined on stage by labelmate 4Eve.^[5] Their debut single "Mayday Mayday" is a hip-hop dance single that channels the energy and spirit of youth fueled by determination, belief, and unwavering courage.
