Norazo (hangul: 노라조) is a musical male duo from South Korea, known for their eccentric stages and comical lyrics.^[1] The duo debuted in 2005 and originally consisted of Jo Bin and Lee Hyuk.^[2] After Lee Hyuk's departure, vocalist Won Heum joined as the new member.^[3] They were also participants in the musical variety show, Immortal Songs.^[4]

History

Jo Bin and Lee Hyuk met accidentally as they started to use the same practice room. Jo cited Lee's good physique and singing skills that first caught his attention. Jo decided to trick Lee into joining him by telling him they were to sing ballads. Later they decided to do music different from the usual K-pop sound.^[5]

Lee Hyuk left the duo in February 2017.^[6] Vocalist Won Heum joined as the new member and they released their first song together on August 21, 2018.^[3]
