Discover the captivating world of ATBO, a dynamic six-member boy group signed under IST Entertainment. This talented group was brought together through the enthralling survival show, THE ORIGIN – A, B, OR What?. Their official debut took place on July 27th, 2022, with the exhilarating release of their mini album "The Beginning : 開花".
The name "ATBO" embodies their spirit of creativity and originality, standing for At The Beginning of Originality. Interestingly, the group was originally meant to be called "ABO", but after fan concerns regarding its potential to be misinterpreted as a racial slur in certain regions, the name was thoughtfully changed to "ATBO".
On May 6, 2024, IST Entertainment made the announcement that Rakwon would be departing from ATBO for health reasons. However, this setback did not dampen the group's determination, as the remaining six members continued to shine brightly as they pursued their musical endeavors. Stay tuned for more exciting developments from the unstoppable force that is ATBO!
