Who sick of waiting for many artists debut or comeback from YG Entertainment? Taeyang's solo? Kang Seung Yoon debut? 2NE1 comeback? Or the full of noise marketing from loooooong time ago the new girl group?  Have a look on YG post from his blog.
From a post on YG-Life blog, YG himself states that the new girl group is planning to debut in October. With members fluent in Korean, English and Japanese, they also have an average age of 17.
Having started out with 10 members, they are now going to debut with six. Eunbi Kim from Superstar K is one of the members. Tomorrow, he will update us on the status of ex-Superstar K contestant Kang Seung-yoon.
Read the full blog post below.

When will YG’s new girl group make their debut?
We are planning October for YG’s new girl group’s debut. The group has been preparing for a long time at YG – their debut is YG’s first one in 4 years since BigBang’s debut in 2006 and 2NE1’s in 2009.*
The trilingual members are fluent in Korean, English and Japanese. Despite their young age, an average of 17 year old, they are arousing deep attention not only in Korea but also overseas.

How many members in the group?
The project initially started off with a plan of 10 or more members in the group, but throughout the years there has been a fierce competition among tens of tryout singers and now remain 6 members.
Unfortunately Yuna Kim, who was discovered on Superstar K, had to be excluded from the team for personal reasons. However, Eunbi Kim, a contestant from the same program, remains as one of the 6 members.

What is the promotional tactic of the new girl group?
We are adopting a debut method that is utterly different from the conventional debuting ways that was applied to other YG girl groups. From October, we will be debuting one or two members at a time to see whether they are apt for the public. When we can see that the audience likes them, then we will move on to forming a proper group.

BigBang’s all five members, on the other hand, made a debut as a group and then started working on their own work. It will help you understand better when I say that we are going the completely opposite direction with YG’s new girl group. In a nutshell, each member makes a debut first, and then they will come together to form a group.

Right now I am in Japan with Akdong Musician and Lee Hi.
Akdong Musician once said in an interview that Lee Hi would be the most “difficult” artist to befriend. For me, both Akdong Musician and Lee Hi are still a tad “difficult”, since they are the latest comers to our agency. I feel that we still need some ice-breaking to do. So using Daesung’s Japan concert as an excuse, I asked them to accompany me to Japan so that I can spend some quality time with them.

On the first day of arrival, their ice has become a lot thinner, thanks to the visit to Disney Land. I joined them later that day for dinner. Frankly, because Soo-hyun, our youngest (which means Lee Hi is no longer the youngest), just turned 15 and others are also just teenagers, I was worried about the generation gap. But I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with them and was impressed by their bright and positive attitudes.

And tomorrow YG will explain about the long awaiting news for Korean about Kang Seung Yoon. Why the Korean really wait for him? Because it really such a waste to bury him in a long time when they think he can debut immediately after the show due to his quite large fanbase.

Keep staytune!
