After 1 year and 2 months of Oh My Girl’s changing from a 7-member to a 6-member lineup, a comeback is in the work.
According to Chosun Ilbo on June 26th, Oh My Girl is in the final stages of work with the goal of releasing a new album at the end of July.
With this, Oh My Girl is finally making a group return, a year and four months after the release of their second full-length album, “Real Love”, in March last year. It has also been one year and two months since Oh My Girl reorganized from a 7-member group to a 6-member group.
Meanwhile, Oh My Girl debuted in 2015 as an 8-member group consisting of Hyojung, Seunghee, JinE, Mimi, YooA, Yubin, Jiho, and Arin. However, in 2017, JinE withdrew from the team due to health issues, and Oh My Girl continued their activities as a 7-member group.
After becoming a 7-member group, Oh My Girl gained recognition with songs like “Nonstop” and “Dolphin”, which they released after appearing on Mnet’s “Queendom” in 2019. They achieved consecutive Melon yearly chart records in 2020 and 2021, received awards such as the TOP 10 at the 2020 Melon Music Awards, the digital song award at the 2021 35th Golden Disc Awards, and the digital song award at the 2022 36th Golden Disc Awards.
Following the release of their second full-length album, “Real Love”, in March last year, Oh My Girl went through a reorganization in May of the same year. In particular, Jiho left the group, resulting in a 6-member lineup.
After the reorganization into a 6-member group, the members of Oh My Girl focused on individual activities.
In particular, Mimi appeared in the web series “Earth Arcade” produced by PD Na Young Seok. Meanwhile, Arin appeared in the tvN drama “Alchemy of Souls”, and is expected to appear in the upcoming tvN short drama series “O’PENing 2023” in the segment “Summer Love Machine Blues” (literal translation).
On the other hand, Seunghee appeared as a supporting role in the KBS2 drama “Oasis”, which aired 2023, and YooA released her second solo album, “SELFISH,” in November last year. Meanwhile, Yubin and Hyojung made guest appearances on various variety shows such as “Stars’ Top Recipe at Fun-Staurant” and “Issue Pick, Together with the Teacher” (literal translation).
