The new SM project group "Girls On Top" is ready!

Not even a week before the end of the year, SM Entertainment surprises K-Pop fans worldwide with exciting news: In 2022, the project group "Girls On Top" will debut with members from all SM girl groups!

SM Entertainment is currently very busy making their artists' fans happy. Today, the winter album "SMCU Express" is released, featuring all the agency's idols, and on January 1, a free online concert will be aired. This is exciting enough, because the last collective winter album of SM was 10 years ago!

But that wasn't all; yesterday SM Entertainment announced on Instagram and a new Twitter accountthat a new project group called "Girls On Top" will debut in 2022!

Girls On Top

Two years ago, Taemin from SHINee, Baekhyun and Kai from EXO, Taeyong and Mark from NCT 127, and Ten and Lucas from WayV debuted in the "SuperM" project group. With this, almost all of SM Entertainment's boy groups united and created something new!

Fans of SM's girl groups have surely always wondered if there will also be a female project group of this kind, especially after the great success of SuperM. Since yesterday we don't have to ask this question anymore, but can look forward to the debut of "Girls On Top"!

Like SuperM, the new girl group will consist of seven members: BoA, Taeyeon and Hyoyeon from Girls Generation, Seulgi and Wendy from Red Velvet, and Winter and Karina from Aespa.

So four different generations are coming together: BoA debuted in 2000, Girls Generation in 2007, Red Velvet in 2014, and Aespa not until 2020, so there are about seven years between each group. That puts BoA and Aespa as much as 20 years apart! In fact, Karina of Aespa was born in the same year that BoA released her first album!

The age difference is correspondingly large. BoA is 15 years older than the youngest: Aespa's Winter, who was born in 2001. However, the many years in between are filled by the other members.

We are excited about the harmony that these seven singers can create together!

Already on January 1 we will get a first taste, because it was announced on social media that there will be a special stage from the group on that day. Most likely at the SMTown Online concert, which will take place on the same day.

Then on Jan. 3, the new song will be released!

Do you already have a bias in the new girl group?

Bonus

In June 2005 BoA released an album called "Girls On Top". We don't know if there is a connection with the name of the project group. If not, it would be a cool coincidence right?
