next, if it weren't already obvious:



The first member confirmed for Starship Entertainment‘s newest girl group Cosmic Girls is none other than EXY.

EXY made her first public appearance as a contestant on “Unpretty Rapstar 2,” despite only being a trainee at the time. According to a statement from an industry insider on December 4, EXY solidified her spot in the group as the main rapper.

Cosmic Girls will be promoting in Korea as well as in China as part of a collaboration project with Chinese media management label Yuehwa Entertainment. The new group will have 12 members, making them one of the biggest girl groups in K-pop. Meanwhile, Starship Entertainment is the mastermind behind other hugely popular stars, such as K.Will, SISTAR, Mad Clown, Junggigo, Boyfriend, and MONSTA X.

bona is so gorgeous!
im guessing there will be 4 units of 3 members each, and the next 3 will be J/S/N units?
i think wonder unit will be the cutesy/innocent unit because of the styling (and dayoung's age)

They look cute, but the profiles are a little generic
I'm really hoping that, even with 12 members, there's not a giant wall between the talent divisions.

Are you asking if they have 12 members? Because, yes

Date: 2015-12-10 04:38 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] belintuchiha.livejournal.com
idk why but I find it a litte weird that they don't put their birth year, as if they're trying to hide sth.

lol im so cynical.. but anyway, I'm curious!

so silly, it's worse to make 20 year olds dress like 16 years old to make the group's average age look younger or sth -___-

From: [identity profile] mlmello.livejournal.com
same. the first thing that I noticed when I read their profiles.
it's silly because netizens can find out really easily if they want to.

dude nobody ever shares my birthday but dayoung does!!! does that mean my birth flower is a pledge of victory too?

From: [identity profile] in-noctem.livejournal.com
SAME I think this is like the third or fourth person in kpop who shares our birthday then but they're all pretty much nugus lol

and I find the concept of a birth flower so interesting, I've never heard of it

UWAA my sister of the stars

i wonder if there's a different birth flower structure for korea? because i always thought it went by month and may was a different flower.

Date: 2015-12-11 10:28 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] in-noctem.livejournal.com
yeah I can't find anything about columbine being the flower of May so I'm guessing they have a different set of birth flowers.

Very pretty! I'm intrigued by this group already, hoping they won't debut with something super cutesy.

This might be the first time I'll be stanning for a rookie group before they debut. I'm just really really really into space ok.

(Also, Cheng Xiao might already be my bias. Martial arts, dance, fellow Cancer? Hmmmmm.)

ngl, the first thing that popped into my head was Jamiroquai:



if any girl group ever did a hard sci-fi or especially a "2001: Space Odyssey" concept, I'm gonna die a happy woman.

edit: oh gosh just noticed the rollerskates (?) in the teaser. Could we be blessed with Space Roller Derby Girl Power (TM)? oh rocket boost skates *____*

I'm still bitter that after the teaser vid with lightsabers and planets and shit I didn't get my 2NE1 space MV. I mean, they go in for futuristic, but I want spaaace.

SPEED did a choreo on heelies, so I wanna believe in a skate stage heh.

edit: this is the 2NE1 vid I'm talking about

Cheng Xiao is super pretty and I'm hft a martial artist girl.
I wonder if Starship is planning on doing dual Chinese/Korean promos with them a la Uniq

Date: 2015-12-10 07:11 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mlmello.livejournal.com
I'm curious about them.

From: [identity profile] gathyou.livejournal.com
I'm curious. Wonder how they'll manage the 12 of them and the different units, since it seems that they'll be separated with concepts rather than nationalities
Anyway there's potential to be something really cool so I'll watch out their debut!

i really like exy so she was the reason for me to pay attention to this group but everything looks kinda really nice so far? idk i'm very interested. i actually like that they have 12 members and all those units. and space theme/concept!!! that's the main draw lmao
but i kind of really hated the profiles they released. no proper hq pics, just those... cropped... something. and the fact that they didn't add year of birth... i'm actually more interested in year than day & month.
