Four members — Seo Eun-kwang, Lee Min-hyuk, Lim Hyun-sik and Peniel — of boy band BTOB have signed an exclusive contract with a new agency after parting ways with Cube Entertainment last month.

The agency was only recently established and has not decided on a name, entertainment news outlet OSEN reported on Monday.

The four members left their former agency in November after all the members decided not to renew their exclusive contracts with Cube Entertainment, ending the 11-year relationship between the band and the agency.

BTOB’s Lee Chang-sub signed an exclusive contract with Fantagio on Nov. 22. Yook Sung-jae's future plans have yet to be announced.

BTOB debuted in March 2012 under Cube Entertainment. The boy band had six members: Seo Eun-kwang, Lim Hyun-sik, Yook Sung-jae, Lee Chang-sub, Lee Min-hyuk and Peniel. It's known for hit songs such as “Missing You” (2017), “Only One for Me” (2018) and “Beautiful Pain” (2018). It released its 12th EP, “Wind and Wish,” on May 2.
