2012: Formation and Timeless: Begins

On May 26, 2012, Amuse Korea revealed that they would be debuting a multinational group consisting of South Korean, Japanese and Chinese singers.[2] Among the members is Shin Won-ho (Shin), an actor who had previously appeared in television dramas and advertisements. Terada Takuya, an Amuse model and actor, was also announced in the lineup and upon Cross Gene's debut became the first fully Japanese K-Pop idol. The entertainment company explained the meaning behind the group's name, stating that the group would "cross the superior genes of each country to create one perfect group".[2] Cross Gene originally consisted of three South Korean members, two Chinese members and one Japanese member.

On June 7, the group held their first showcase at the Ax Korea concert hall.[3] They released their first mini-album Timeless: Begins on June 8. Ten days later, a limited edition version of the mini-album was released.[4] Timeless: Begins debuted at #9 on the Gaon weekly albums chart, and peaked at #8 the following week.[5]

In January 2013, Amuse Korea announced that Seyoung would be joining Cross Gene as a new member.[6][7] He replaced J.G., who left Cross Gene to start a career as a solo artist. Following J.G.'s departure, Takuya stepped down as the leader and the position was given to Shin instead.
