Notably, one of P NATION's chosen contestants to be in their lineup for their K-pop group was Tanaka Koki, a Japanese member born in 2009.

Notably, although Tanaka Koki will not debut with the upcoming K-pop boy group, he will remain as a trainee under P NATION. This will further hone Koki's skills as an artist and this shows that P NATION has future plans to debut more K-pop boy groups!
