BAP was formed in 2012 by TS Entertainment, initially consisting of six members: Yongguk, Daehyun, Youngjae, Jongup, Himchan It is Zeal. In 2019, after the end of their contracts with the agency, the stars decided not to renew the agreement, ending their group activities.
Now, under the MA Entertainment label, the group should return to promoting as a group, however, without Himchan It is Zeal. This is because, in 2021, Himchan was found guilty by the South Korean court of charges of sexual harassment committed in 2018, being sentenced to 10 months in prison, and, therefore, will not return to training.
Now the maknae Zeal is currently serving in the South Korean military, and will not be able to participate in the comeback. So far, there is no information on whether the artist will join the group after his discharge.
