“Girls Planet 999” Teaser Reveals These 10+ Girl Group Idols Will Be Contestants On The Survival Show
본문
Less than one month before the premiere of new survival show Girls Planet 999, Mnet has released a new teaser of the 99 contestants—and these 12 established girl group idols are part of the lineup.
1. Yujin (CLC)
24-year-old Yujin debuted as CLC’s lead dancer back in 2015, making her the most experienced girl group member joining Girls Planet 999. Unfortunately, when fellow member Elkie left the group last year, she revealed Cube Entertainment has not been providing support for CLC’s activities, which may explain why Yujin is taking the aspiring rookie idol plunge once again.

2. Jiwon (Cherry Bullet)
First debuting in 2019, 20-year-old Jiwon is Cherry Bullet’s main rapper, lead vocalist, visual, and center. Before joining the group, she trained under Starship Entertainment, Polaris Entertainment, and BlockBerry Creative, so she’s no stranger to the industry despite barely passing her rookie years.

3. May (Cherry Bullet)
Three Cherry Bullet members have joined the Girls Planet 999 lineup; the second is 16-year-old lead dancer, visual, and maknae May. The new survival show will bring together 33 contestants from Korea, 33 from China, and 33 from Japan. Since May is Japanese, it’s currently unclear whether she’ll be competing under the Korean division or not.
