House of Girls Debuts 10 Rising Stars Backed by K-Pop Powerhouses
In a powerful launch that has already stirred the K-pop and indie music worlds, ENA’s new music reality show House of Girls is set to premiere on June 23rd at 11PM KST. This groundbreaking 100-day music journey brings together 10 emerging ‘Untitled Artists’ from the Korean indie scene as they face missions to release a collaborative compilation album.
The series features an all-star panel of artist-makers, including Kim Yoon-ah, Yang Dong-geun (YDG), Shin Yong-jae, and Soyou. Alongside them, Lee Yi-kyung serves as the MC and Managing Director, guiding the aspiring talents toward forming a 3-member multi-musician unit.
Fans were excited to meet the official lineup: Bamseom, View, Seori, Cian, Ara, Young-ju, YuA, Yul, Gisel, and Keyss. These 10 are already generating buzz thanks to their varied backgrounds, ranging from massive online followings to collaborations with K-pop legends.
Bamseom earned credibility through connections with rapper Swings, while View has charted in Korea’s Top 100 charts as a proven hitmaker. Seori was spotlighted after receiving a shoutout from Jungkook of BTS and collaborating with TXT and Giriboy. Ara brings a heartwarming story as a persistent singer-songwriter auditioning for the 154th time, while Young-ju previously wowed audiences on K-Pop Star Season 3.
Meanwhile, YuA‘s past connection to BLACKPINK’s Lisa and a viral cover video with 17 million views keep the anticipation high. Yul, who previously served as a guide vocalist for Soyou and gained praise in a Shin Yong-jae cover contest, showcases strong vocal capabilities. Gisel, schooled in the U.S. and Japan, has worked with CHANGMO and BewhY, bringing global flair to the stage. Keyss, with experience as a girl group trainee, has released original soundtracks alongside Hanhae and Sik-K.
Early footage revealed strong impressions: Shin Yong-jae applauded one contestant’s tone, while YDG reacted joyfully to another’s charisma. With compelling personal stories and serious musical potential, House of Girls promises to be ENA’s next breakout music reality hit.
