Click-B (클릭비) is a South Korean boy group and band formed in August 1999 under DSP Media. Click-B started out as a band combining rock and dance beats in their music.
The band split in 2002, with 4 members remaining. In 2003, the 4th album was released with Woo Yun-suk, Oh Jong-hyuk, Kim Sang-hyuk, and Kim Tae-hyung. In 2004, they joined the k-pop duo, J-Walk (consisting of two previous Sechskies members Jang Suwon and Kim Jaeduck) to form a project band, JnC. After JnC, member Kim Tae Hyung left the group to pursue personal interests.
In 2006, Click-B (with the previous arrangement of 3 remaining members Oh Jong-hyuk, Woo Yun-suk and Kim Sang-hyuk) released their 5th album "Smile".
In 2011, Click-B (with all seven members) got together for a brief comeback with two new singles, "To Be Continued" in April and "빈 자리 (Empty Seats)" in November.
On December 14, 2013, DSP Media organized a concert 'DSP Festival' at Jamshil Arena where Click-B performed as a group along with other artists under the same management. A few members were absent for various reasons: Evan (Yoo Ho-suk) was still serving his military obligation, Kim Sang-hyuk was on hiatus from the entertainment industry and Kang Hoo (Kim Tae-hyung) was busy with his acting career.
In August 2015, it was reported that all seven members would return for a new album slated for release at the end of this year. A month later, DSP Media confirmed that the group will make its comeback in October. DSP Media announced the group would hold its first concert after thirteen years since debut, "7-3=7" on November 21. The group would be released "Reborn" on October 21.
Kim Tae-hyung (김태형) (born March 19, 1981) is the leader of the band. Tae Hyung started his mandatory military service on December 23, 2006.
After leaving Click-B, Tae-hyung ventured into acting under the name 'Kang Hoo'.
Woo Yun-Suk (우연석) (born May 13, 1980) is the oldest member of the group. His position was rapper and vocal. He attended Kyunghee Cyber University, Department of Global Management. In June 2006, he released a digital single, "Baby Boo". Then in July 2007, he formed a duo group named Mainstream with his good friend MC K and released a digital single "One Rainy Day" where he also acts for this music video. Mainstream released their 1st official album in August 2007 with title song "Sting" where Sanghyuk was starred in this music video.
