Youtuber Na Haeun will be the center of the new SM Girl Group and their debut will be in July. Showcase will feature 7 trainees

Omg I remember her dancing with Shownu

She is 13 this year.

So are we entering new Kpop era in which established celebrities make their debut in idol groups? We already have nepotism problem, it will only get worse.

she is the center?
I'm not impressed by her visuals

SM visual really regressed
their selection of center /visual
not as impressive compared to other GG

What do you mean the showcase is in 10 days

but can she sing or rap at least?

We know she can dance, i still don`t see it

Debuting 13-14 yr olds seems to be the standard these days.

If theres any controversy you can expect a couple words by me or an essay.

Also its just gross how u guys keep pretending that sexualizing teens isnt problematic and think the problem is just some petty stuff and not something factual that affects directly those minors lol

There was a minor YG trainee who covered a rap song with s*xually explicit lyrics. It was excused as, “she picked the song for her evaluation”. Ignoring the fact that these companies literally control and oversee trainees almost 24/7

But what that has to do with my original comment?

I didnt even knew about it, but teen trainees picking edgy songs for evaluation is nothing new. We see scandals about it every once in a while. The problem is when the company, that is composed by ADULTS, deliberately make dubious choices involving minors.
