This is a two-member release from inside SEVENTEEN — S.COUPS and MINGYU, credited together as CxM, with American rapper Lay Bankz featured. PLEDIS Entertainment put it out through the HYBE LABELS channel on 29 September 2025.

The sub-unit, and why the initials matter

SEVENTEEN is unusually formal about its internal divisions: the thirteen members are split into a hip-hop, a vocal and a performance team, each of which has released material under its own name. CxM is something different again — an ad hoc pairing named after the two people in it, following a convention where a duo billing joins the names with an X. Korean agencies treat these smaller configurations as a way to keep a group visible without requiring all thirteen schedules to align, and the abbreviated tag — here CxM — becomes the search handle for everything connected to that pairing.

About this release

The song is “5, 4, 3 (Pretty woman)”, featuring Lay Bankz, published 29 September 2025 on HYBE LABELS. The video was directed by Daehee Han and produced by HAN SUNGSOO. The rights line names PLEDIS Entertainment, the HYBE label that manages SEVENTEEN. The official description carries the tags #CxM, #HYPE_VIBES and #543_Prettywoman.

Watching from outside Korea

If you search for this one, the Korean billing 에스쿱스X민규 will return more results than the romanised form. Note that the official upload sits on the HYBE LABELS channel rather than a SEVENTEEN or PLEDIS channel — a common arrangement across HYBE’s artists.
