If you are unaware of it, JYP Entertainment is the entertainment label that is responsible for the previous K-pop groups like TWICE, ITZY and Wonder Girls.
This means that JYP has managed to make super successful girl groups so far. Out of which, except for ITZY, every other group has been awarded with the Song of the Year Award.
So, JYPE is going to make a new K-pop girl group after ITZY. Back in July of this year, the agency officially unveiled the poster of the group for the first time ever.
The group since then was marketed as a ‘Blind Package.’
Following that, the label had also allowed for the fans to pre-order their album before any of these girls were officially announced, let alone a première.
