The twelve-piece group equally shares joint leadership among the eldest members, Choi Hyun-suk and Jihoon.

Junkyu, Ye-dam and Jung-hwan had stints in entertainment during their childhood days. On December 31, 2019 Yoon-bin terminated his exclusive contract with the label to pursue a different musical pathway closer to a solo career. As a result, both groups were permanently merged and are now called Treasure.

The group surpassed 170,000 pre-orders within several days ahead of its physical album release on August 13. The second installment to their series was released on September 18, as a single album titled The First Chapter: Chapters One and Two. Through the release, the group acquired the title, \”Half a Seller\”, from the accumulated sales figure of their two albums, while their lead single topped the monthly chart of Rakuten Music for the month of September.
