Rumors of this group have been brewing for many months now. Just moments ago, DSP Entertainment, the agency behind SS501, KARA and Fink.L, confirmed the suspicions and revealed the new girl group to the Korean public.
"After four long years of training, these girls have developed the best vocal and dance skills around," a DSP representative revealed. "They were affectionately called 'rainbow' in their training days, a nickname that has gained popularity. We chose this word as the group's name because each girl has a different charm. Furthermore, this name has more meaning because it was generated by fans."
Akin to the promises they made when KARA debuted, DSP is already comparing Rainbow to Fin.K.L, stating, "The members of Rainbow were picked so that their physical appearances wouldn't be inferior to Fin.K.L"
As the teaser image suggests, the girls will already be coming out with an album upon their debut titled Gossip Girl.
Honestly, I'm a bit skeptical about the promised "originality" of this group - with lackluster word choices for their group name and album, we can only hope that this isn't just another rehashed version of every other girl group out there. Also, is it just me or does the bottom-right girl on the album look a tiny bit like a grown-up Goo Hara of KARA? Is DSP Entertainment re-debuting their artists or something?
As a bonus, here are some pre-debut selcas from the members...
Rainbow is set to come out with their first teaser this Friday, November 6. Stay tuned as allkpop brings you more about this brand new group!
