Meet Leo, a trainee who played one of three high school students. The other two students in the music video are rumored to be members of HYBE x Source Music‘s new girl group and/or contestants on Mnet‘s Girls Planet 999. Girls Planet 999, a K-Pop competition show, will be the female version of I-LAND, the show that formed ENHYPEN.

Trainee A’s official Instagram account is followed by HYBE producers Slow Rabbit, pdogg, hissnoise, and FRANTS, leading fans to believe that the Trainee A members will debut in a new boy group.
