These 9 Trainees Could Be Part Of Big Hit Entertainment’s New Girl Group

At Big Hit Entertainment’s corporate briefing on February 4, the company announced their plans to debut a new girl group under subsidiary label Source Music—and these formerly announced trainees could be part of it.

Source Music CEO So Sung Jin revealed that the worldwide “Plus Global Audition” project established in fall 2019 successfully recruited a number of trainees who will debut in the upcoming girl group as soon as 2021. Netizens have speculated that the group will be called PLUS, based both on the audition name and the hashtags used: #Playful, #Lovely, #Unique, and #Sassy.

Of course, the newly recruited members aren’t the only trainees Source Music has. After plans for a new girl group with Big Hit Entertainment was announced last year, it also came to light that Source Music ended its contracts with all the male trainees under the company. The female trainees, however, remained, so chances are at least a few of them will make it into the new girl group.

Curious about who those trainees might be? Here are 9 of the previously revealed Source Music girls who could be in the group.
