After answering questions about 2NE1's future plans yesterday, Yang Hyun Suk is continuing with his letter to fans to resolve their curiosity surrounding YG Entertainment's new girl group!

As you know, the agency revealed a few members back in 2012 for this upcoming group, before suddenly stopping, and once again started to tease with new photos earlier this year, but that stopped abruptly as well.

We haven't heard much about this new group since then, but according to Yang Hyun Suk, the girls, or at least some of them, will be making their debut towards the end of this year - October to be more specific, which is when 2NE1 is scheduled to release a mini album as well. 

However, it turns out we won't be seeing the group as a whole, but one or two members at a time as they stand in front of the public as individuals before they come together as the group.

Check out more details through his letter below, and stay tuned for his answers to questions about Kang Seung Yoon's debut!

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.

I will come back with more details of their album release later!

 

When will Kang Seung-yoon, the ex-Superstar K contestant, be debuting?

To be continued� see you all tomorrow!
