YMC Entertainment says they have no idea why people think IOI's concept is 'sexy'

AKP STAFF
IOI
YMC Entertainment stated that IOI's unit concept is not 'sexy'!


Many fans figured that the girls were doing a complete 180 turn with their new concept, but YMC Entertainment told OSEN, "This unit concept is not 'sexy'. We didn't emphasize sexiness at all, so we have no idea why people think so."

They explained, "Instead of sexiness, we wanted to emphasize charisma on stage as well as a 'girl crush' concept. This will be a completely different stage from IOI's first concept of 'unique'."


The girls will be coming back with a remake of Linda Lyndells's 1968 hit "What a Man", titled "Whatta Man (Good Man)" at midnight on the 9th. 


What do you think of YMC's statement?
