Dongwoon talks about not being able to call himself a \'B2ST\' member

Park Myung Soo\'s \'Radio Show\', where Park Myung Soo introduced him as a \'former\' B2ST member. To this, Dongwoon responded, "You said I was \'former\', but I\'m not former yet. I\'m still current, but we can\'t say we\'re currently [B2ST] members. There\'s a situation."

Park Myung Soo said, "I can say that more severely, but I won\'t since it could harm [Dongwoon]."

Cube Entertainment, the group has not been able to use the name because Cube has the name trademarked under their name in both Korea and overseas. The boys have been unable to use the name even for their fanmeet and such, which was named under the boys\' individual names instead of the group name \'B2ST\'.

what about "B TO THE EAST" or "BAYSTE" or... "Ba-toost".......no? .................... :(

I know it\'s hard for them, but they should have at least settled to a temporary name while the legal team works on trying to get Beast back so they have a name they can work under. But at least, they keep bringing attention to this issue which could make it resolves faster than it did for Shinhwa. Their temporary and unofficial way to refer to themselves now in their last names together : YoonYongYangLeeSon

That\'s really sad bc it was them who made that name famous.

without these group that below than 2010, i thought your "ALMIGHTY" bts might be used a binocular for now isn\'t it??to get a regonization by the world .

You do realize literally everyone and their mother can tell that you\'re an anti-bts troll right?

He is a troll. He always do this (hit n run) to make BTS fan get bad name

Yeah, don\'t feed the fake ARMY trolls.

How mean can you get? No wonder people don\'t like Army\'s.

Don\'t give it attention. It\'s a troll writing spiteful stuff everywhere.

I won\'t. But honestly people like raid5 sicken me.

Just saying, downvote or report for hateful speech. Idiots are all over the internet, no need to get hung up on a single one. You should just understand that, in this case, if you\'re a fan of b2st™, you shouldn\'t feel attacked personally, because it doesn\'t really matter what group or person if someone is just going to insult everyone. Also you don\'t know whether it\'s an actual Army, or trying to hurt their reputation or hurt BTS, so please don\'t be so quick to judge.

I\'m glad they\'re on a different level from you in particular so that they won\'t have to listen to the bullshit coming from this online dweeb. Raid5? More like Aid5. You need some help. Lots of it.

Wait but this isn\'t even about bts tho girl/boy why you trollin

I\'m an Army myself. I always wondered why people said that Armys were all bad when we\'re not and now I know why. It\'s because of people like Raid5.

That would make a lot more sense if this rancid garbage was an actual ARMY

beast IS their group name, they were gonna be b2st but changed to beast right before debut, they\'re known by both names but the official one is beast, yet akp keeps using b2st for some reason ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ cube has trademarked both names tho so rip

Can they be B3ST? I mean it kinda makes sense...

I always wondered how to pronounce their band name properly.. still pretty new to all the KPop hype hehe... Could you explain it to me x)?

The number 2 is pronounced as \'ee\' in Korean (like in Lee or peel), so B2st = Beast in Korean. Also their Korean name 비스트 would be romanized to English as bee-seu-teu or \'Beast\' in English. So the 2 in their English name is just their Stylized name - to make it look cooler Similarly the rapper Dok2 is not Dok-two, but is pronounced as Dokee (Do-kee).

Confusingly B1A4 or 2PM are not known as Bil-Asa (il = 1, sa = 4) or EePM, but by the English number, but then written in Korean (비원에이포 = Bee-weon-aei-po)
