New bi-racial girl group coming up!


For the first time ever, Korea will be seeing a new girl group debut comprised of bi-racial members. (Actually, allkpop is wrong. Does anyone remember Isak 'n' Jiyeon?)

Produced by Paramount Music, 5-member girl group Chocolat will be making their official debut on August 17th. They’ve managed to turn quite a few heads in the industry already, thanks to their unique combination of members.

The five girls include two Koreans and three half-Caucasian, half-Korean members. All three of the bi-racial ladies have American fathers and Korean mothers. With an average age of 18.6, the girls have been training intensively for the past two years and a half.

Representatives explained, “Chocolat’s music can be considered a mix of club and electronic dance songs. They’re perfect clubbing songs to listen to in the summer. You can consider it a mix of T-ara’s ‘Roly Poly‘ disco music and 2NE1’s ‘I Am the Best‘ dance music.”

One member has been revealed to be a veteran with 8 years of experience under her belt. She debuted at the age of 8 on Arirang TV and went on to star in shows like KBS’s ‘Ding Dong Dang Pre-School‘.

Chocolat will be making their debut with their first digital single, “Syndrome“, on August 17th. The girls will be debuting on Mnet’s ‘M! Countdown‘ the day after on the 18th.

In other news, I really like Melanie. She is so pretty~
And Julanie has beautiful eyes.
So these are two of the three half-Caucasian, half-Korean members (I think).
Who is the third, I wonder.

a part of their selling point going to be that fact that they're biracial?

o tru.....

Thumbs up for the post, op!

I must say I'm interested. I hope their music is some sort of a jam and their performances are enjoyable (so what if they're young, I'm enjoying GP Basic's performances recently and they're GOOD), and I wish them luck. Melanie seems adorable, and omg Jaeyoon is such a qt :333

1997?! Damn it, and there I was thinking about how pretty Tia was. Just when Taemin finally went legal... tsk XD

Well, I'm not sure of how bi-racial this is, but ok. Let's see what they release and then I'll judge. But, man, I think I've lost track of all the rookie groups that have debuted so far this year :/

[info]unfadingscar

You can tell them apart because all three of the bi-racial are wearing the same shoes.

tia is stunning ooomigod

[info]fuckinmagnets

August 3 2011, 17:40:50 UTC 9 months ago

how can people focus on their age? I'm more concerned about the fact that these pictures make their hair look fried as fuck and super gross in general.

Yes, I do remember Isak N Jiyeon, I was actually listening to them today.
~CSJH stan~



Anyway, best of luck to these girls, Isak received a lot of criticism for being biracial, and it's probably why she hasn't released anything in years.

Did she really? Ah man~why people have to be like this? T__T
