Hanbin, a popular trainee who rose to fame on the survival show I-LAND, was seen in public for the first time since leaving BELIFT LAB to join Yuehua Entertainment.

Fans began to be concerned when Hanbin failed to update his personal Twitter account for more than two months after the announcement. Their fears were quickly dispelled when a fan shared a series of photos taken by a friend of Hanbin hanging out with a few other Yuehua Entertainment trainees, including Hyeongseop and Euiwoong, taken by a friend.

"My friend spotted Hyeongseop on the streets and sent me this picture. This must be the pre-debut 7-member group at Yuehua T-TTTTTT I think Hyeongseop, Euiwoong, and Hanbin are all in this group T-TTTTT Plus, with the announcement today T-T I THINK THEY MIGHT REALLY DEBUT NOW T-TTTTT

The thought that Hanbin, along with the other six boys, will make their debut shortly excites them. This is because Yuehua Entertainment submitted a patent application on June 8 for the term "TEMPEST" and the acronym "TPST," which fans believe could be the new group's name.

Furthermore, the company said that Hyeongseop and Euiwoong's "Yuehua Project" fancafe

will close on August 17, adding them to the list of possible "TEMPEST" members.
