Beast Says They are Hurt with the Label as a Recycled Group but Admitted It was True

Beast confessed that during their debut, they were given the label ‘ the recycled group’.

On the 19th February broadcast of KBS2TV’S Entertainment Tonight, Beast said, ” When we heard people labelling us the recycled group, we were of course very angry, but it was true, so we couldn’t say anything.”

Kikwang had previously debuted under the name AJ, Doojoon had taken part in the 2AM and 2PM audition documentary Hot Blood and Jang Hyunseung had been eliminated from Big Bang.  Junhyung had debuted previously before but had never taken part in any documentaries. Because of this, Beast were given the label ‘the recycled group’ when they debuted.

Beast said, ‘It was alright for us to be called the recycled group, because we are now Beast and there is nothing bad about that, but it hurt a lot of our fans.’

Beast had held concerts during December last year and the 18th and 19th of February this year.
