Unlike any other group of their time, BTOB were introduced through JTBC Sitcom, "I Live in Cheongdam-dong", as an aspiring boyband working towards their debut. The members that were introduced at that time were Eunkwang, Minhyuk, Hyunsik, Ilhoon, and Minwoo. However, Minwoo were dropped from the list of debut line-up due to his health problem at that time. Other members such as Changsub, Peniel, and Sungjae joined afterward.

Originally a seven-piece member group, member Ilhoon departed from the group in December 2020.
