YG Entertainment, one of the largest music companies in Korea, hints at a major reorganization of its lineup in 2023 with the news of a series of artist updates at the end of 2022.

Excluding BLACKPINK and TREASURE, who are all-in on overseas tours, they are quickly sorting out contract issues with artists whose hiatus is getting longer.

YG Entertainment mentioned a total of three contract-related announcements on the 30th. First, it was announced the termination of the contract with top star Kang Dong-won, followed by the termination of the contract with 6 iKON members, and immediately after that, they officially announced the launch of a new girl group 7 years after Black Pink.

The official announcement about YG's next-generation girl group, which had only been rumored, was made abruptly. Along with the 'YG NEXT MOVEMENT' poster released on the official blog at 3:00 pm on the 30th, the 7 members revealed with the date and silhouette of '2023.01.01 0 AM' heralded YG's new girl group project in 2023. 

YG has confirmed that it will launch a next-generation girl group that has been secretly prepared for years without specifying the name of the artist. An official debut in the first half of 2023 is being mentioned in the industry.

YG's new girl group launch is about 7 years after BLACKPINK. With the great success of 2NE1 and BLACKPINK, YG's own girl group is being completed, and it is noteworthy what the first 7-member YG girl group will look like.
