Yoseob actually wanted to try modern rock, however, his seniors at that time said that it would ruin the mood and did not push through it.

He moved agencies, to M Boat Entertainment (a former sister company of YG Entertainment) where he was trained for 5 years before transferring to Cube Entertainment where he finally became a member of Beast.
