The girl group UNIS, born through the SBS audition program "UNIVERSE TICKET," finally realized their debut dream. On the 27th, the 1st mini album "WE UNIS" release commemoration showcase was held at the YES24 Live Hall in Kwangjin-gu, Seoul. UNIS is a girl group born from the SBS and F&F Entertainment audition program "UNIVERSE TICKET," which ended its broadcast in January of this year. Jin Hyung-ju revealed his thoughts on the debut, saying, "UNIS is finally making its debut. Various memories have come to mind from the moment I dreamed of becoming a singer to the moment I was chosen for UNIS through 'UNIVERSE TICKET.' I want to show you a cool stage that can respond to the love you sent me." Pan Yuna said, "The group name is an abbreviation of 'U&I Story,' and it means that we will unfold our story that began with UNIS together. I want to show you a stage with a lot of UNIS' charm, just like the group name." Next, Jin Hyung-ju expressed his gratitude, saying, "I have been loved since before my debut, so it would be a lie to say that I don't feel pressure. I prepared hard to respond to the love I received. I am happy to be able to show you our debut song 'SUPERWOMAN' and I am grateful. I have prepared a wonderful stage to respond to your love." Im So-won, the youngest member of the group, born in 2011, just graduated from elementary school this year. Finally, an idol born in the 2010s debuted in the K-POP world and attracted attention. She said, "At first, I was more excited than nervous, but I thought it was worth practicing." They are a multinational group composed of members from Korea, the Philippines, and Japan, so they also attracted attention for their communication among members. Zelidanka said, "Korean is still difficult for me. Recently, I have improved my Korean quite a bit by talking with other members. I am grateful to my beloved members, especially the Korean members. I want to do my best from now on." Im So-won, who attracted attention as a "trot prodigy" through "Mistrot 2," has embarked on a new challenge as a K-POP idol. She was influenced by her school friends to touch K-POP and became an idol because she felt its charm. She said, "I have done a lot of busking even before doing trot. Thanks to that experience, I was able to stand on various stages and show myself professionally in front of many audiences without being nervous. I am grateful for all the processes of working as an idol now." Jin Hyung-ju mentioned receiving various advice from singer Yuna during "UNIVERSE TICKET." She said, "Yuna is a senior at the agency, so when 'UNIVERSE TICKET' ended and UNIS was formed, she talked to me about various things. Recently, she sent me an email saying, 'Preparing for your debut must be tough, right?' and gave me advice and support." They chose TWICE as their role model. Elysia said, "Like TWICE seniors, UNIS was born through an audition program. The seniors have been loved all over the world since their debut. I want UNIS to become a group loved all over the world." Im So-won expressed her determination, saying, "I want many people to think of UNIS' name and think of UNIS as the representative girl group of the 5th generation. I will do my best to become such a group." Finally, Pan Yuna set a goal, saying, "Our goal for this year is to win the rookie award with UNIS. The rookie award is a chance that can only be obtained once as a member of UNIS, so I want to sweep the rookie awards at the end of the year." The 1st mini album "WE UNIS," which announces the beginning of UNIS, expresses various emotions in the colorful colors of the girls with the theme of "our story, our beginning." The title track "SUPERWOMAN" is a dance number that combines Afro beats and moon batoon, and house genres, and contains the determination that anyone can become their own superwoman whenever they want. In addition to this, it includes a total of 5 songs, including "Butterfly's Dream," "Whatchu Need," and "Dopamine" and "Dream of girls," which are collaboration songs with "UNIVERSE TICKET" rearranged in UNIS version. UNIS' 1st mini album "WE UNIS" will be released today (27th) at 6 p.m. through various music distribution sites. ・ [PHOTO] UNIS born from "UNIVERSE TICKET" holds debut showcase ・ UNIS releases debut song "SUPERWOMAN" MV...confident and lovely performance
