JTBC is launching a new variety audition program for female idol rappers that are also vocalists. The show, titled "The Second World," will center around female idol rappers known for having good vocals aside from being good rappers. JTBC is hoping it would break stereotypes that idol rappers are bad singers.
Solo singer Paul Kim will be hosting the show. The show will also feature a special format. The program will have guides and global heroes, which would be the show's viewers.
According to JTBC, the show is still in its initial stages as only teasers were released. They ask viewers to vote today for their favorite video on the Naver NOW app. However, fans of the members in the show can tell their idols' voices.
MAMAMOO MoonbyulSinging 'Congratulations'
MAMAMOO Moonbyul fans are excited as they see another side of their idol. Many MooMoos have wanted Moonbyul to sing as she is a part of a great vocal group but always being overshadowed by her co-members.
With this, fans are hoping it would help Moonbyul have more confidence in her singing and have more opportunities to sing in MAMAMOO's songs.
Former AOA Member Jimin
Another idol rapper famous for being a good singer is former AOA member Jimin. After her two-year hiatus, she is coming back through this show.
Jimin was embroiled in a scandal in 2020 with another former member of AOA, Kwon Mina. She was accused of bullying by the latter, and that started a "witch hunt" for the idol.
After some time, people changed their perspective on Jimin as it appeared that Mina might have mental health issues when she posted her issues with Jimin.
Jimin fans are all happy to see that the former AOA member will be coming back. They are hoping that people will continue to support the idol.
Female Idol Rappers With Good Vocals
Six more other idol rappers will be joining the show. One of them is Cosmic Girls Exy.
The leader of Cosmic Girls or WJSN has been showing her rap and song-writing skills ever since its debut. But with JTBC's "The Second World," she will show more of her singing skills. Her fans are also ecstatic that the latest 'Queendom' winner will be rechallenging herself.
Another one is Oh My Girl's main rapper, Mimi. Mimi is one of the least known members of Oh My Girl. This is why Miracles are happy that she is about to get some spotlight through the show.
Momoland's JooE will also share her vocal prowess with JTBC's new show. Furthermore, another veteran on the show is former Wonder Girl's member Yubin.
Lastly, the rookie girl group rapper, Moon Sua, from Billlie. Sua is also Astro Moonbin's younger sister. Belllie'ves are glad that Sua can share her talent with other K-pop fans and the Korean audience.
There are three more contestants, with one of them being CLASS:y's Seonyou. Other participants have yet to be revealed.
JTBC will release more details about "The Second World" in the coming days. As of now, fans are voting for their faves to be included in the final lineup.
