Meanwhile, expectations are rising for the upcoming group, as this will mark the first girl group launched by HYBE, aside from the now-disbanded GLAM under Big Hit Entertainment.

Fans are especially excited to see what kind of concept the new girl group will present to the world, given that they are labelmates with top K-Pop stars, such as BTS, TXT, ENHYPEN, and SEVENTEEN, among others.
