If he was to recover, he would still get a chance to debut. Adding on, he would still be a trainee under Cube. On March 23, 2012, Cube Entertainment had clarified that there were problems with Minwoo's health, resulting in him being unable to blend into the group. However, Lee Minwoo had dropped out of the list of confirmed members after their first appearance on the sitcom and the fact of him not debuting with BtoB had upset many fans.
They appeared on the JTBC sitcom "I Live in Cheongdam-dong" as an aspiring boy band working towards their debut. It was stated from the start that Seo Eun-kwang, Lee Min-hyuk, Im Hyun-sik, Jung Il-hoon and Lee Min-woo were on the list of original members who are waiting to be debuted under the name of "BtoB". The group was formed by Cube Entertainment. Five of their albums topped the Gaon Album Chart, and nine of their singles peaked in top ten on the national Gaon Digital Chart. Since the group's 2012 debut, they have received multiple awards, including the 30th Golden Disc Awards Best Vocal Group in 2016, 2017 Melon Music Awards Top 10 Bonsang and 25th Seoul Music Awards Ballad Award in 2018. In November 2014, they made their Japanese debut with "Wow" under the Japanese agency Kiss Entertainment. They released their first full-length album, Complete, in June 2015. The group's debut EP, Born to Beat was released on April 3, 2012. Originally a seven-member group, Jung Il-hoon departed from the group in December 2020.ītoB debuted on March 21, 2012, performing "Insane" (비밀) and "Imagine" on M Countdown. The group consists of Seo Eun-kwang, Lee Min-hyuk, Lee Chang-sub, Im Hyun-sik, Peniel Shin and Yook Sung-jae. Sure, it’s not going to set the world on fire, nor is it likely to last on my playlist for all that long, but there’s something endearing about the fact that all it’s trying to be is a decent pop song with a solid hook.BtoB ( / ˈ b iː t uː b iː/ BEE-too-bee Korean: 비투비 acronym for Born to Beat often stylized as BTOB) is a South Korean boy band formed in 2012 by Cube Entertainment. This can read as a bit saccharine, particularly paired with some of the more cringe-worthy English rap lyrics (seriously, why do they always give Peniel such lame parts in every single song?).Įven so, Dear Bride isn’t an embarrassment - and that’s more than I can say for a lot of Japanese tracks by Korean groups. The bells used in the instrumentation are likely meant to conjure images of wedded bliss, though they give the song an oddly festive, almost Christmassy, feel as well. The verses are largely forgettable, but the chorus has a nice melodic build that sticks almost instantly. But, it also demonstrates some of the restraint present in their more mature Korean releases. On one hand, its emphatic, sweeping balladry sounds like something jpop group News would record. In other words, their two singles were super j-poppy.ĭear Bride strikes a nice balance between both musical cultures.
They also began to push into Japan with original material that catered almost exclusively to the genre preferences of that market. BTOB enjoyed one heck of a 2015, finding a new level of success and finally becoming the group they were meant to be.
