Yuto, active in Japan after his departure from CUBE Entertainment in October 2023, has been making waves with his solo career.

After parting ways with PENTAGON and the agency, Yuto quickly made headlines with his single "Dat Girl" and has been engaging with fans through TikTok and YouTube.

However, it's his recent appearance that has genuinely taken fans by surprise. On July 31, Yuto posted a photo on Instagram featuring himself alongside TWICE's Mina, Sana, and Momo.
