From debut to now
- 2017Boy was the debut, pushing the cool, clear feel of a large group and the individual visuals to the front.
- 2020Reveal and Road to Kingdom showed group choreography with a story in it, and with The Stealer in September their standing as a performance group was reassessed.
- 2021Maverick widened the force of the concepts and the choreography further, and the way into THE BOYZ became clear.
- 2022World tours and overseas shows increased, so following the stage footage rather than only the music videos began to matter more.
- 2023WATCH IT and other songs added a more grown-up presentation, making the change from the early cool feel easy to read.
- 2026The stage now is to follow the characters of a large line-up, the performing and the types of official video as separate threads.

KPOP DISCOVER's THE BOYZ note
What anchors THE BOYZ is the cool, clear feel of a large group and group choreography with a story in it. IST Entertainment debuted 12 members on December 6, 2017 with Boy, putting the individual visuals to the front. After an early departure they became 11, and since Ju Haknyeon left in June 2025 they have worked as 10. The fandom is called THE B.
The turning point was Reveal and the survival show Road to Kingdom in 2020, where group choreography with a story in it moved their standing as performers upward. Because so many members appear at once, checking the formations in the dance practices rather than the music videos gets you further. The Stealer and Maverick widened the force of the concepts and the choreography.
WATCH IT and other songs from 2023 added a more grown-up presentation, and the routes through world tours and overseas shows grew. The range runs from the early cool feel to hard concepts, so following the performance videos in order alongside shows the change. Reveal, then The Stealer, then Maverick covers the entrance, the signature song and the turning point in a few minutes.
Editors' take Reveal / The Stealer / Maverick — an IST large-format performance group that widened a cool, clear feel into group choreography with a story.
Trivia worth knowing
Many members
With 11 members on screen at once, the Dance Practice clips make the formations legible in a way the music videos cannot.
Turning point
Winning Road to Kingdom is the context that frames THE BOYZ as a performance group.
Signature song
Reveal works as the entrance, The Stealer as the signature and Maverick as the sharp turning point.
Fandom
THE B takes its letter directly from the group name, which keeps the fandom name easy to hold on to across official social accounts and concert billing.
Video
Adding the official performance videos shows the moment when sheer numbers turn into an advantage.
Where they stand now
The span runs from early freshness to heavy concept work, so a chronological pass makes the change obvious.
