The two boybands had grown close after participating in Mnet’s reality TV competition programme Kingdom: Legendary War earlier this year, where Stray Kids emerged as the winners. They later shared what they had learned from BtoB in an interview with SPOTV News.

“I felt a lot while personally watching the senior group that I like the most and have always thought were really cool,” said rapper Changbin. “Not just their performances, but I want to emulate their consistent passion for music and performing, as well as the proficiency they have as singers.”
