But then Park Jin Young turned the tide when he announced that he felt Twice was incomplete and therefore decided to add two more members! One of those two was Tzuyu, who was particularly popular with viewers. With that, everything was decided and disappointment spread among the remaining trainees as well as their fans. 16 trainees from JYP Entertainment participated, hoping to debut in the new girl group at the end.Īfter the last performance in the final, the Major Team consisted of Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Jihyo, Mina, Chaeyoung, Sana and Dahyun. In May 2015, the first episode of Sixteen aired. Then, surprisingly, another trainee, Lena, also left the agency at the end of 2014 and the remaining members eventually participated in the survival show "Sixteen" in 2015. Cecilia left JYP Entertainment in early 2014 and was replaced by Sana. 6MIX originally consisted of Cecilia, Lena, Minyoung, Nayeon, Jeongyeon, and Jihyo, who was called Jisoo at the time. In fact, there was also already a trainee group called "6MIX" preparing for a debut of six. The debut of the last girl group "Miss A" was more than 3 years ago and the only other girl group of the agency, Wonder Girls, took a break. Originally, a new girl group was supposed to debut under JYP Entertainment around 2014. Let's take a look at the creation of Twice together! 6MIX For example, it would not have taken much and Twice would have seen the light of day with only seven members!
It didn't take the group long to reach the top of the charts, and today it's hard to imagine the K-pop scene without them! However, the road to the debut of the girl group as we know it today was not entirely straight. The nine-member girl group Twice is best known for their cute concepts and upbeat music.
