Four members of BTOB — Seo Eunkwang, Lee Minhyuk, Im Hyunsik, and Pniel — have announced an innovative project titled Becoming, designed to give fans an inside look at the album-making process, BTOB Company confirmed Thursday. As part of this project, the quartet will drop a prerelease single, “Please Stay,” on October 31, offering fans a preview of the music to come.

Following this initial release, the group will unveil two additional digital singles over the next few months, culminating in a full album release next year. The concept behind Becoming is to bring fans along on the creative journey, showcasing the members’ artistic process and collaboration. Hyunsik had hinted at the project earlier during a radio appearance, teasing fans with “good news” on the way.

Meanwhile, BTOB’s other members are pursuing individual projects. Lee Changsub released his first solo studio album, 1991, last month and will hold solo concerts in Seoul on November 30 and December 1. Yook Sungjae is preparing for his appearance in the Netflix show Zombieverse, which is set to premiere next month.

Becoming marks an exciting chapter for BTOB, promising fans an intimate and behind-the-scenes experience with their favorite members. As the band members continue to shine both collectively and individually, the upcoming project and solo ventures reflect BTOB’s versatility and enduring appeal in the K-pop industry.
