With Us Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as With Us) is launching a new girl group.

On the 30th, comprehensive entertainment company With Us announced, "We have embarked on a production project for a new girl group equipped with a unique worldview and musical perfection, and have begun full-scale member recruitment and concept building." It further stated, "We will conduct training with perfection as the top priority, without specifying a debut date, and will present a new paradigm for K-POP."

This project marks the first new artist production project in three years since the creation of the rookie boy group The Wind in 2023. Since 2025, With Us has sequentially recruited Park Cho-rong, Yoon Bo-mi, Kim Nam-joo, and Oh Ha-young from Apink, Wheein from Mamamoo, and Hui from Pentagon, securing a diverse lineup of K-POP artists.

In particular, Apink's 11th mini album "RE: LOVE" released in early this year showcased classic sensibility and rich narrative, expanding Apink's signature pure concept with the title track "Love Me More" while demonstrating their unwavering presence. Additionally, with songs including "See You Again," which is famous as a coin noraebang ending track, and "Nice to Meet You, My First Love," WithUs is displaying high completion in every song they present with the refreshing youth-teen concept that The Wind has built up, leaving a strong impression on many K-POP listeners.

With Us's solid production capabilities, including the sophisticated and refined musical styles of Wheein and Hui, have already received praise from K-POP fans across all generations. This new girl group aims to be an 'all-around icon' that communicates with the public while inheriting the artistic capabilities of Apink, Wheein, Hui, and The Wind.

To achieve this, With Us's innovative planning and thorough market analysis will be supported by a large number of top-tier production teams. In particular, the production team Sweetune, which has consistently produced various hit songs in K-POP since the 2010s, along with several composers including KZ, known as the epitome of freshness, will take charge of the musical core of the new girl group, planning to showcase their unique dramatic melodies and sophisticated arrangement capabilities.

The first step of the project will proceed through a nationwide karaoke audition. From May 1 to 31, With Us will conduct a 'Next Girl Group' audition in collaboration with TJ Media, Korea's representative karaoke brand, targeting female vocalists and rap aspirants born between 2005 and 2012. Given that it is an easy and massive platform accessible from anywhere in the country, a fervent atmosphere is expected.
