J.Y. Park, the mastermind behind some of the top girl groups in the Korean industry, is going on another endeavor to create another legendary girl group.
Unfortunately, he is off to a rough start as he is having a difficult time while personally trying to cast the members for his girl group project.
J.Y. Park's new project is titled 'Golden Girls,' and the producer wants to bring together legendary veteran female artists from South Korea's music history to create a "Golden" girl group. In the preview trailer for 'Golden Girls' released on October 17, J.Y. Park is seen meeting with legendary veteran artists Park Mi Kyung, Shin Hyo Bum, Lee Eun Mi, and Insooni.
During the meetings, J.Y. Park carefully presents the legends with his new project ideas but is met with an unexpected response. All of the singers believe it would be impossible to be in a 'Girl Group' at their older age.
When Insooni is given the idea of a 'girl group,' she responds with, "It's a girl group? Isn't it a granny group?" making J.Y. Park at a loss for words. She adds, "Can you handle four Noonas with strong personalities?"
When J.Y. Park presented the same idea to singer Park Mi Kyung, she responded, "We're 'girls'?" She added, "Even young idols have a hard time being in a girl group. Now, at our age? My body condition is so bad. Really bad."
After seeing the trailer for the new show, K-netizens find it hilarious to see J.Y. Park, who is usually charismatic and well-spoken, struggling to find words.
They commented, "This might be possible?" "They will be much better at singing than even Big Mama or MAMAMOO," "They're going to do this project," "If the four of them sing...I'm so excited for this..." and commented, "This is a good idea. There are only idols in their teens or twenties performing. We need more legendary performers on stage," "I think even attempting to do this project is amazing. Also, it would be phenomenal if they achieved something they thought they couldn't," "This idea is really fresh and a good idea," "The member layout is crazy," "I'm really looking forward to this," and "This is going to be amazing."
I actually am looking forward for this. JYP just needs to pick a very good song for them. Golden Girls sitcom has break the stereotype of grandmas show can be fun to watch, so why not an older girl group with legendary talent?
