Fromis 9 (Korean프로미스나인 or 프로미스 9; initialism for From Idol School; stylized as fromis_9[1][2]) is a South Korean girl group formed by CJ E&M through the 2017 reality show Idol School on Mnet. The group's name, pronounced as "promise" in Korean, also means "to keep their promise [to viewers] to be the best girl group". It is composed of nine members: Roh Ji-sun, Song Ha-young, Lee Sae-rom, Lee Chae-young, Lee Na-gyung, Park Ji-won, Lee Seo-yeon, Baek Ji-heon and Jang Gyu-ri.[3][4]

History

2017–present: Formation through Idol School, "Glass Shoes" and debut with To. Heart

In March 2017, it was announced that Mnet, same producer of shows including Sixteen and Produce 101, would be launching a new reality survival show titled Idol School to form a new girl group.[5] The show premiered on July 13 and ended on September 29, 2017 with Roh Ji-sun, Song Ha-young, Lee Sae-rom, Lee Chae-young, Lee Na-gyung, Park Ji-won, Lee Seo-yeon, Baek Ji-heon and Jang Gyu-ri as the nine members of Fromis. The final line-up was solely decided through live and online votes of viewers.[6][7][8] Pledis Entertainment led by CEO Han Sung-soo managed the group's training and debut.[9]

Fromis premiered its own reality program on October 19 titled Fromis's Room about continuing the path to debut. It followed the format of a simulcast, where it combined pre-recorded materials and replays of Facebook Live broadcasts in their dorm.[10] The group's name was later changed to Fromis 9 following the final episode of Fromis's Room on November 23, with the "9" meaning the nine students who graduated from Idol School.[2]

On November 29, Fromis 9 performed their pre-debut single titled "Glass Shoes" at the 2017 Mnet Asian Music Awards in Japan. The song was released as a digital single the following day.[11][12] They also performed the song on the December 15th episode of Music Bank, the group's first-ever appearance in a music program.[13]

On January 8, 2018, it was announced that Fromis 9 will officially debut on January 24 with the release of their first extended play (EP) titled To. Heart, along with its lead single titled "To Heart".[14][15][16]
