WANNA.B was created by Zenith Media Contents in 2014.

On April 6, 2016, Zenith Media Contents announced that member SeoYoon would be leaving the group due to back pain. In addition, the label added 2 new members, these members are RoEun & Lina. Lina was revealed to be the older sister of Girl's Day member Minah.[4] The new line-up made their comeback on June 26, 2016, with their 3rd digital single "Why".[5]

In late 2019, Zenith Media Contents removed WANNA.B's profile from their list of artists (although the profile can still be accessed on the site, and the group's official social media accounts have been either been deleted or are inactive, leading to speculation that the group has disbanded.
