off topic but why did hyuna leave jyp?

FINALLY. FINALLY/ FINALLY!

our wild horse is coming back!

omg omg omg....

I wait for this group so so so long

and now its come out

so so so happy XDDD

I'm gonna die now lol

She my fav after So Hee

1 more day until 14~~~~

This group is really a secret

quite come out XDDDD

love love JYP's family ♥

i can't wait. i missed her

off topic but why did hyuna leave jyp?

she left JYPE and went to cube which is a sister company of JYPE.. there's no difference really :lol:

^ CUBE is the sister company to JYPE. 2AM used to be signed under that company, but they moved back to JYPE. I'm sure Hyuna and her group will move back later on.

I'm sooooooooooooooooooo happy our wild horse is coming back! This is just an amazing day for Wonder Girls fans. We have been waiting for a while now. I'm just happy JYPE never gave up on her

The family will finally be complete <3

Guys, she is NOT debuting tomorrow. They are only revealing the group's name and the members' names.

honestly i m glad she has a chance to achieve her dreams again but i hope she's not rapping because her rapping wasn't good when she was in wonder girls. if she is rapping, i hope she improved a great deal. i wonder who will be leader. so many debuts this year especially girl groups. hopefully they will have a concept that distinguishes themselves from the rest.

from what i remember when she was in wonder girls she only rapped because JYP wanted a rapper in the group.. she didn't have any training or anything

i think she's been working on that the past 2 years as well so hopefully it's better now :)

i dont understand.

i thot she withdrew from wonder girls because she had health issues....

if she has health issues, why is she coming out in a new girl group?

^ she probably is deemed to be healthy enough to do this again. JYP wouldn't risk it if he wasn't sure she was ready to go through this again.

It's been almost 2 years since she left....

Oh wow so fast!! Just in like 1-2 days!!! XD

I wonder how many members there will be!! :D

from what i remember when she was in wonder girls she only rapped because JYP wanted a rapper in the group.. she didn't have any training or anything

i think she's been working on that the past 2 years as well so hopefully it's better now

actually hyuna trained for 5 years before debuting with wonder girls.

maybe you're mixing it up with yeeun? yeeun had only a few months of training before debut.

i dont understand.

i thot she withdrew from wonder girls because she had health issues....

if she has health issues, why is she coming out in a new girl group?

I was thinking that too.

Well I heard that she actually didn't leave the group due to health issues but because she didn't get along well with some of the members in WG. My cousin told me this cause her friend's friend knows HyunAh. But yea, good to see her back though.

^ hm, interesting.

Either way, I'll be looking forward to her return !

She's the most known member.

I hope the other members will be able to make their name in the group as well.

But,

Another girl group!?!?

There's been a lot of that going on lately.

actually hyuna trained for 5 years before debuting with wonder girls.

maybe you're mixing it up with yeeun? yeeun had only a few months of training before debut.

I think she meant that Hyuna wasn't supposed to be a rapper because she was initially trained to be a singer or something like that.

I was thinking that too.

Well I heard that she actually didn't leave the group due to health issues but because she didn't get along well with some of the members in WG. My cousin told me this cause her friend's friend knows HyunAh. But yea, good to see her back though.

If you watched MTV Wonder Girls season 1 & 2, you could tell Hyuna got along extremely well with the members - especially Sunye and Sohee since they trained together the longest. I heard that she left the group because of that reason as well, but it's just rumors like how she left the group because she got pregnant. -_-

nono i only meant that hyunah didn't have any training as a rapper~ i know she had it for everything else :lol:

I was thinking that too.

Yeah I heard that too. thats prob the most well-known 'rumor' (the pregnant one is just stupid)

Anyway, as much as i love hyunah, they have some REALLYYY tough competition from 2NE1, esp since YG's marketing is fabulooosoooo, and Cube is pretty much fail atm =(

yes finally a group im aticipating for, along side 2NE1!

i cant wait for this.
