DSP Media, the home to hit girl groups KARA and Rainbow, has announced that they will be debuting their next girl group simultaneously in Korea and Japan!

The five member girl group is temporarily nicknamed 'DSP Girls' and will be making their debut through an animation series titled, 'Pretty Rhythm, Dear My Future'. They'll be attending the production conference in Tokyo on January 31st, and this will mark the first girl group debut through an animation show in both Korea and Japan.

The group is comprised of Haein (18), Shiyoon, Chaekyung, Somin (all 16), and Jae Eun (14). Despite still being in the debut preparation stage, they have been receiving CF casting offers from Nintendo and Whisper. At the production conference, the ladies will be performing their own cover of KARA's "Pretty Girl".

'Pretty Rhythm' is an animation and comic series detailing the debut process of girl group trainees. The members will be unveiled one by one before their debut, and their debut single itself will be released within the animation show.

The girls will be competing against avex's girl group Prism, and also have a collaboration down the line once they both make their debuts. Prism will also be making an appearance in the animation show.

'Pretty Rhythm' will air on TV Tokyo starting April, and their Japanese debut single is scheduled for release in July.
