The "dance prodigy" Na Ha-eun will debut as part of the girl group UNCHILD.
UNCHILD (Park Ye-eun, Hiki, Tina, Ako, Lee Bon, Na Ha-eun) held a debut single "We Are UNCHILD" release showcase on the 21st at the Blue Square WOORI WON Banking Hall in Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul.
High Up Entertainment is introducing the girl group UNCHILD about six years after STAYC, and the group name combines the prefix "UN-", which overturns ordinariness, with "CHILD (PERSON)", meaning a person not confined by any standard. They express the team's unique identity with a tadpole symbol that breaks standardized molds and declare a break from existing preconceptions and norms, raising expectations that they will present a new paradigm for the fifth generation.
Na Ha-eun, who has been famous as a "dance prodigy" since childhood, finally attracts attention as she debuts in a girl group. Na Ha-eun gained fame as a dance prodigy after appearing in 2013 on SBS's "Amazing Contest Staking" as Kids King "Baby Hyuna." She later ran the YouTube channel "Awesome Ha-eun," which gathered 5 million subscribers.
Na Ha-eun, who drew attention by signing an exclusive contract with SM Entertainment in April 2022, fulfilled her dream of debuting in a girl group after signing an exclusive contract with High Up Entertainment in September 2024.
Na Ha-eun said she and the six members had been running toward this day and that with the debut day having arrived, she feels like she is dreaming.
UNCHILD's debut single "We Are UNCHILD" will be released at 6 p.m. on the 21st through various online music sites.
