Before she signed an exclusive contract with MLD Entertainment, Hyebin was a trainee at B2M Entertainment, which previously managed former Kara member Nicole Jung, Eric Nam, girl group Spica, Lee Hyori, and others. After leaving B2M Entertainment, she joined Duble Kick Entertainment in 2015.
Meanwhile, MOMOLAND's latest release is their third single album, "Ready or Not," which was dropped in November last year. The album features the title track of the same name, together with the B-side song "Merry Go Round" and the instrumental version of "Ready or Not."
MOMOLAND's "Ready or Not" debuted at No. 81 on the Gaon Download Chart, as well as on the Gaon BGM Chart, while the album entered at No. 25 on the Gaon Album Chart. A total of 3,524 copies were sold in November, making the album the 81st bestselling release for that month.
About Former UNB/HBY Member Marco
Marco debuted a year after Hyebin as a member of HBY, which was signed under OPUS Entertainment (formerly Rainbow Entertainment). The group name is short for "Hot Blood Youth." The band consisted of five members and only had two releases (both are single albums) before they disbanded in March last year.

Back in 2018, while HYB was still an active group, Marco participated in "The Unit," an idol rebooting program that broadcasted on KBS 2TV. He successfully made it to the final lineup of members that formed the project group UNB (an acronym for You & Unit B).
UNB was made up of nine members and made their debut in 2018 with their mini-album "Boyhood." Like HBY, the group was only able to launch two releases (both are mini-albums). UNB disbanded in January 2019 after the conclusion of their final Japanese concert.
