After months of arduous court rulings, K-pop girl group FIFTY FIFTY is back with new members and new music! Their management company ATTRAKT "teased" the three new members by using their silhouettes in the new single/comeback "Silhouette" teaser! We take a look at who these new members might be!
Let's take a look at their new teaser first!
Ahead of their official comeback in September, FIFTY FIFTY's new single "Silhouette" depicts Keena (the only constant member of the group). The other four members are either blurred out or just their silhouettes are shown.
ATTRAKT made an official statement citing a later comeback (in September) would be better than June for the "sake of [the new] album quality and global marketing, we need a substantial amount of time."
Fans speculate two of the four new members!
Just from the teaser above, fans have speculated that participants Chanelle Moon and Yewon from Belift Lab's reality series R U Next.
Although many fans have been brimming with anticipation for their comeback, some wish the group would "start over" with a new name and look:
"Just start a new group."
"That is the weirdest s*/t to do. Mfers gonna be like "Man, I LOVE 5050 but they sure to look different...can't quite place my finger on it..."
Our thoughts
We can't help but understand ATTRAKT's position as they want to maintain the "FIFTY FIFTY" brand integrity while salvaging whatever is left of what seemed to be a promising group with their first and only single "Cupid" breaking into international music charts peaking at number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 and at number eight in the UK Singles Chart, becoming the first K-pop girl group to reach the chart's top 10. "Cupid" also won the iHeartRadio Music Awards for K-pop Song of the Year in 2024.
Will the new members of FIFTY FIFTY be able to "wash away" the sour aftertaste of the previous members' lawsuits and dismissals? We'll have to wait a little longer and see! Comment below who you think the newest members are and what you hope to see in this "new" group!
