PENTAGON

PENTAGON is a South Korean boy group formed by Cube Entertainment through the 2016 Mnet survival show Pentagon Maker. They debuted on October 10, 2016 with a self-titled EP and the lead single "Gorilla", and in 2018 their song "Shine" grew into a word-of-mouth hit. The group finished third on Mnet's Road to Kingdom in 2020 and built a parallel career in Japan, where the single "Cosmo" reached No. 1 on Oricon. Although most members' contracts with Cube ended between 2023 and 2025, seven of them reunited in September 2026 for the 10th-anniversary single "Coward", a project run by Kino's label NAKED, and took it on the anniversary tour 101010.
