A girl group formed by Han Seong-soo of Pledis Entertainment after he launched a separate girl group label

1. Han Seong-soo, how dare you make a girl group?ㅋㅋ

2. Seong-soo againㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. What could these cute, young girls possibly be lacking that they had to debut there of all places?ㅠㅠㅠㅠ They could’ve done so much better somewhere elseㅠㅠ Did they even know their track record before auditioning? ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

4. Is this the group with Jihyo’s dongsaeng?

5. HYBE’s hand went into making this girl group so they already look tackyㅠㅠ

6. I was scrolling down thinking “Oh, they look pretty”, but then, I saw Seong-soo’s name? No…

7. There’s no one that looks stunning. I’ll have to watch them perform

8. I feel like they will hit big thanks to HYBE’s know-howsㅋㅋㅋ I shouldn’t buy into them either. It’s obvious they’ll just make up some epic story out of them if people show any interest

9. They look like a Japanese group

10. Han Seong-soo, stop making girl groups if you have any shame left
