In December 2015, Cube Entertainment announced that they were preparing to debut a boy group in mid-2016, four years after BTOB's debut.
The final lineup of Pentagon was decided through Mnet's reality program Pentagon Maker. Pentagon Maker aired online through Mnet's digital content brand, M2, and showcased the members challenging five aspects: Performance, Dance, Teamwork, Talent and Mind. By the end of the show, Jinho, Hui, Hongseok, Yeo One, Yuto, Kino and Wooseok were confirmed as the official members of the group. The group was originally scheduled to host their debut concert on July 23, 2016 at Jamsil Indoor Stadium, but Cube Entertainment delayed the concert and debut date of the group because of some internal issues.
On September 30, 2016, Pentagon were confirmed to debut on October 10, 2016. It was also confirmed that the group would be debuting with ten members, including the members eliminated from Pentagon Maker: E'Dawn, Shinwon and Yan An.
Pentagon released their first mini album Pentagon on October 10, 2016. Pentagon is composed of seven tracks, including the title-track "Gorilla". The group also held their debut showcase on the same day.
They held their first solo concert, on December 6 at the Yes24 Live Hall in Gwangjin District, Seoul. The tickets for the concert were sold out within eight minutes of going on sale. On December 7, the group released their second mini-album Five Senses, including the title-track "감이 오지 (Can You Feel It)".
On March 29, Pentagon released their first Japanese mini album Gorilla. The album contains Japanese versions of their previous songs and two new Japanese tracks.
On May 1, Hui and E'Dawn debuted in the sub-unit Triple H with Hyuna. The mini album, named 199X, contains title track "365 Fresh" and three other songs.
On May 18, Pentagon pre-released a special track titled "Beautiful" which was produced by BTOB's Ilhoon. Soon after the song's release, they announced plans for a comeback with album titled Ceremony. Unfortunately, Yan An was unable to participate in comeback activities due to an injury. The music video for title track "Critical Beauty" was released on June 12.
You Are
펜타곤 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
하루를 일년처럼 살아가는
내게 할 수 있는 유일한 선물
이렇게 난 기도하죠 또 그래서 난 노래하죠
세상 가장 아름다운 그 미소로 나를 안아 준
You are
그래서 그대의 웃음을 내가 지켜 낼 수 있길 (내가 지켜 낼 수 있길)
지금 이 손을 놓지 않길
이렇게 난 기도하죠 또 그래서 난 노래하죠
세상 가장 아름다운 그 미소로 나를 안아 준
You are
그 길을 따라가 희망을 쫓아가 설레임을 안고
너와 항상 너와
시간이 지나도 함께 있기를 바라
이렇게 난 기도하죠 또 그래서 난 노래하죠
세상 가장 아름다운 그 미소로 나를 안아 준
You are
환한 그 미소로 나를 안아 준 you are

Throughout the song, the lyrics emphasize the importance of hope and the pursuit of happiness. The lyrics encourage following a path filled with hope and excitement, and the singer expresses a longing to be with this person regardless of how much time passes. The closing lines, "환한 그 미소로 나를 안아 준 you are" (You are the one who embraced me with a bright smile), further emphasize the impact this person has had on the singer's life.
Overall, "You Are" is a heartfelt tribute to someone who has left a lasting impression on the singer, reminding them of the power of hope, happiness, and the beauty of a genuine smile.

Jinho, man.... 8 years. It took him 8 years to finally achieve his dream. Most people would've gave up, which he did momentarily. He went from training to be a singer to training others vocally. But then he got another chance. Thank you cube for bringing him in. Thank you pentagon for letting him sing. I'm so proud of him.

I notice that the members hold hands a lot, it shows how close bond they have. Ten of them have the same dreams, struggle with the same path. In October 10,2016 they finally purse their dreams all together, at the same time, they finally reach their goals in becoming an artist, and now what's left, is us fans to bring them more love to Korea so they can be successful!!
Jino waited ten years for this you finally made it!
Congrats my boys you finally made it!! As a fan for 2 months, I got all teary too!
