Lea Navvab Huening Might Soon Debut As A K-Pop Idol Again
While siblings TXT‘s Hueningkai and Kep1er‘s Huening Bahiyyih are both popular and established K-Pop idols now, their older sister Lea Navvab Huening (also known as J’Lea or Jung Lea) was the first to make her debut in 2017 as a member of VIVA. She was active as an idol for about three years until the group disbanded in 2019 without a formal statement.
For years, Lea has remained in the spotlight as a YouTuber, TikToker, singer, model, and MC. In November 2022, she debuted her first single, “A Good Day To Love.”
In April of this year, Lea signed with PI Corporation. Recently, it was confirmed that she would be a contestant on PI Corporation and Makestar‘s upcoming global girl group survival show Time Turner.
Time Turner plans to search for a new generation of global entertainers. The audition will take place in an area of space-time known as P-134, somewhere with infinite potential and where dreams come true through time travel. The winners will debut as Time Turners who journey through time while creating music and art.

Auditions were open for women of any nationality aged 19 and up until September 18. Time Turner will be broadcast for only two weeks, from November 8 to November 22, 2024, via TikTok, and winners will be selected through global fan votes with no judges’ involvement.

Although Lea previously said she liked her current life, she was still open to re-debut. In a 2021 interview with &ASIAN, Lea said she would like to try debuting as an idol again if the opportunity arose.
But, I still want to be an idol. Though I did it [before], it didn’t work out. So if I have another chance, I want to try again.
