This marks the first official partnership between a U.S. label and a K-pop entertainment company to launch an artist from the beginning, and the first time a U.S.-based pop girl group will be created based on the K-pop training system.

The audition process is global, and submissions are being taken from now until November 28.

Here’s more details: “HYBE and UMG will collectively emphasize artist development through components such as music and performance training as well as life skills training, including mental wellness and music business and financial literacy, to lead a rewarding and sustaining career. This also notably represents the first time a U.S.-based pop girl group will be created and modeled based on the world-renowned K-pop training and development system—a full production that combines everything from music, performance, fashion, music videos, and communications with fans. Preparation will take place in Los Angeles, where the pop girl group will also debut.”

According to the announcement, aspiring stars “must be female (she/her/them), between the ages of 15 and 19 (16 to 19 for EU residents), and exhibit talent in singing, rapping, dancing and/or producing.”

A new K-pop girl group also just formed through a popular reality TV competition in South Korea. Find out who’s in the group!
