BraveBrothers to debut Japanese girlgroup

Brave Brothers is a notable name in the KPop scene, having worked with the likes of Big Bang, Sistar, 4Minute, and T-ara. He’s now expanding to Japan, with his new girl group CHERRSEE.

Two years ago, Brave Brothers auditioned 5,800 people in Japan. The winners were trained in Korea, getting assistance from KPop group AOA. The resulting group is named CHERRSEE. They are composed of 4 Japanese girls and 1 Thai one. Their name is a play off of “cherry seeds”, since these seeds develop into cherry blossoms / sakura, flowers which attract people in great numbers.

CHERRSEE will release their debut single, “Mystery”, on May 25.

It's kinda cute but they'll die after two unsuccesful releases anyway?

Hello! Can you fix the broken link to your image? Thanks!

[timetobegin.livejournal.com]

The picture shows up for me perfectly, but it seems I always get this question when I make a post - what image host should I use in the future?

[cosmopudin.livejournal.com]

I found postimage.org or the lj one to be the best

damn all of them are so cute that's all i could see tbh

[leopolitan.livejournal.com]

so cute! and this song is actually better than what he gives a lot of kpop groups lmao..................

they're adorable but between them, brave girls and BB work for other studios odds are high they & BG will get short changed in the time/development and song department.

this is a pretty good song but i feel like it's dragging?? like it needed a faster beat

[anabelstars.livejournal.com]

yeah it sounds better to me too when i watch it in 1.5x speed on YouTube lol,

[senshicalico.livejournal.com]

omg i love this :( plz don't let them die BB

[dio-elaclaire.livejournal.com]

this was kinda cute. i thought sayuri was gonna be the face of the group but miyu seemed to be all over the mv. is lena the thai member?

i have no idea what kind of songs currently appeal to the japanese demographic so idk how they'll do

[a-cheshire-grin.livejournal.com]

If four of them are Japanese, then why is their Japanese so...terrible? Are they intentionally singing in bad Japanese? o.O

[thomaswilmoore.livejournal.com]

Well, this may be wrong, but I wish they would collab with some japanese producers lol
This is cute but it lacks what makes J-Pop different.

[demeulemeester.livejournal.com]

damn i'm surprised by how much i like this just on the first listen. the mv is very kpop like, especially the styling, but that's not a bad thing. not the typical jpop gg release which is to be expected since it's a korean producer. i'll keep an eye on them, i may need to stan! someone make icons!

if this was a kpop group i would side-eye the name but considering the names of a lot of japanese acts this is pretty alright lol.

lmao at one of the girls holding a newspaper about the 2016 intl melbourne comedy festival tho

cute. maybe queen namie will let them be her back up dancers in one of her MVs ala after school

[epona.livejournal.com]

yeah i don't think japan will be into this? comparing it to the stuff japanese idols are putting out right now

[iigoru.livejournal.com]

Damn, korean styling really makes such a difference. They all look korean to me. Now I get why Mina and Sana don't look japanese to me.

If Brave Brothers had any kind of conscience he would stop trying to manage groups altogether.

I used to be so into BigStar but that 2(?) year hiatus they had killed it off for me, unfortunately. Speaking of which, I see my boys in the MV ;p

About the song/MV, it was indeed cute.

[scionofawhisper.livejournal.com]

I actually really, really like this..

This doesn't seem very j-popish. I sounds and looks like a kpop group and I am not liking that.

Idk how they will do its not the usual jpop sound but it to similar to kpop
idk

all the best to them, but can BB focus on one flop group at a time please?
