SEOUL, Feb. 23 (Yonhap) – The new boy group audition program “THE ORIGIN- A, B or What?” will postpone the release of its first episode until Mar. 19, according to MBN and Kakao TV on Tuesday.

The staff explained that some of the trainees starring in the program tested positive for COVID-19 and therefore it was inevitably postponed for 3 weeks.

“THE ORIGIN” is a program that depicts the survival of 13 trainees from IST Entertainment, where groups Apink and The Boyz belong to, who want to make a debut as a new boy group.

It will be first aired on MBN on Mar. 19 at 5 p.m., and will be released on Kakao TV·1theK on the same day at 6 p.m.
