MEOVV has yet to debut, but they are already causing a storm in the K-pop industry, so here’s what you need to know about their members.
THEBLACKLABEL is gearing up to debut their first girl group, MEOVV, sometime in early September. Their debut was first announced on August 16, and since then, all five members have been released to the public. After getting shout-outs from top K-pop idols such as BLACKPINK’s Jisoo and Jeon Somi, their success is practically guaranteed. Plus, since THEBLACKLABEL is a subsidiary of YG Entertainment, fans are already dubbing MEOVV as “Little BLACKPINK.”
