Yang HongSuk’s 2nd Survival Program With Cube’s PENTAGON

Yang HongSuk will be participating in his 2nd reality survival audition program through Cube Entertainment’s new boy group PENTAGON.

We first met HongSuk through YG’s reality survival audition program, MIX & MATCH, where 9 trainees competed for a spot in IKON. Unfortunately, HongSuk failed to secure a spot, and ultimately left YG for Cube Entertainment. When rumors hit that Cube will be debuting a new boy band, picture evidences surfaced of HongSuk being a part of the group. But HongSuk fans’ celebration was cut short just a few moments ago when Cube and Mnet had announced that PENTAGON will debut through a reality survival audition program.

Mnet and Cube had announced that they will be launching a reality show titled “Pentagon Maker”, where the current 10 trainees will compete in a series of challenges to win the hearts of their fans. The members will have to compete as individuals, as well as units, through 5 categories: Performance (Singing and Rap), Dance, Teamwork, Talent (Wit and Variety-skills), and Mind (Impression and Attitude). Their videos will be available online where fans can come vote for their favorite member. At the end of the program, the online votes will decide who will become the final members of PENTAGON. The final members will then hold an official debut concert on July 16 at a large stadium.

“Pentagon Maker” will premier online on May 2nd through M2, Mnet’s digital contents brand. The program will air online every Mondays and Tuesdays at 10pm on Naver TVCast’s “M2-Pentagon Maker” channel. The program will continue for 12 weeks, with the show launching its TV airing starting on May 17th.

PENTAGON will be Cube’s latest boy band since BtoB’s debut 4 years ago. It seems Cube Entertainment is taking extensively thought out measures to make sure that their next boy group is on a whole another level (starting from their debut)! Although Yang HongSuk’s debut isn’t 100% certain, but at least we will be able to see him on screen starting next month! Make sure to cheer for HongSuk and the other boys of PENTAGON!

Best of luck and Best wishes, PENTAGON!
