The flood of girl groups seems to be coming at the industry full force this year, and they're all touting different concepts to set them apart. Noting the impact of this musical phenomenon, SBS's E!TV and Plus have teamed up to produce a new 'girl group creation' program this May called the "Diamond Girls", where viewers and netizens will be able to literally 'raise' the group themselves for a total of three months. Through Daum's "TV Pot" and social networking site "Yozm", viewers will be communicating directly with the directors of the show in choosing everything from the group's casting, to eliminations, their group name, choreography, debut song, promotion tactics, and album jacket photoshoots. The program was first introduced on "Yozm" on March 16th, and garnered explosive interest, with netizens writing, "It's a fresh idea," "The program will do well, especially since audition shows have been gaining so much popularity lately," and "It's a unique concept." An impressive line-up of producers will be participating in the program, including Yoo Young Suk, Shin Hae Chul, Joo Young Hoon, and Tony An. The program will run for a total of 12 episodes from May through August. Source: Arts News via Naver, Diamond Girls Yozm
