‘Oh My Girl‘s little sister’ USPEER, first reveal of 7 draft picks’ profiles

WM‘s new girl group ‘USPEER’ has been revealed.

USPEER presented the first episode of the reality show ‘USPEER RUN UP!’ through their official YouTube channel on the 3rd.

This episode was decorated with the concept of ‘WM New Girl Group Draft Nomination D-DAY’, hosted by Hyojung, a member of the agency’s senior group Oh My Girl. As if the draft process was copied directly, each member‘s profile, charm points, and special strengths were introduced in sequence.

Amidst their confident debut speech, saying, “We will be the hottest girl group in 2025,” the meaning of USPEER was also revealed for the first time. USPHERE is a combination of the words ‘US(we)‘SPEER(question, ask)’, and contains the meaning of ‘We will understand the essence of the world we will live in together and create a better future.’. The members who heard the team name for the first time said, “We think it suits us well. We like it.”.

The seven members showed off their individual strengths, such as vocals and dance, through the draft, and also showed off their entertainment sense full of unexpected charm with unpredictable and strange individual skills, such as the sound of a mosquito. Si-an, who boasts top-notch skills in both vocals and choreography with solid fundamentals, Seo-yu, the team’s main dancer with an upright personality, Da-on, a hard worker with a bright smile, the 17-year-old youngest member Roa with emotional vocals, Chae-na, who is armed with bubbly and cheerfulness, So-yi, a rapper with burning passion, and Yeo-won, the eldest member and captain who holds the center of the team, all showed off their unique charms.

Youthsphere caught the eye by showing off their warm senior-junior chemistry with Hyo-jung. Hyo-jung comforted the nervous members and brought out their greatest charms, showing off her ‘senior charm’. Hyo-jung said, “I hope we can each do our roles well and be active for a long time. I hope they fight with the pride of ‘I am Youthsphere’. You can do well.”

After sharing thoughts such as “Now we are a real team,” an unexpected mission was given to USPEER at the end of the video. As the first stage to show off USPEER’s skills, the members filmed a live video of a cover dance of Enhypen’s “ParadoXXX Invasion” after practicing for two weeks. USPEER expressed their determination by saying, “We will grit our teeth. Let’s tear everyone apart.”

Meanwhile, USPEER is a new girl group that WM Entertainment is introducing for the first time in about 10 years since Oh My Girl, and they are scheduled to debut in the first half of this year. USPEER will release a reality show, “USPEER RUN UP!” every Thursday at 8 p.m. on their official YouTube channel to warm up for their debut.
