In recent developments, four members of BTOB have reportedly inked deals with a newly established management firm, as revealed by local media on Monday. While the agency is yet to finalize its name, it will represent Seo Eunkwang, Lee Minhyuk, Im Hyunsik, and Peniel, who officially parted ways with Cube Entertainment last month after an 11-year association.

In a separate move, Lee Changsub joined the ranks of agency Fantagio last month. Meanwhile, Yook Sungjae, although yet to make a formal announcement, has assured fans, along with the other members, through their respective agencies, that the group will remain intact and continue to prioritize collective activities.

The band, which made its debut in March 2012 with the single "Secret," entered into a contract renewal with Cube Entertainment in 2018. However, recent speculations suggest that disagreements over the rights to the band's name might have contributed to the decision to part ways.

As BTOB navigates these changes, uncertainties loom over the band's future, raising questions about the resolution of contractual disputes and the potential impact on the group's identity in the music industry.
