History

Formation

We Girls were announced through a crowdfunding website called Makestar on October 31, 2017. The Makestar participants were able to vote on which of the girls would be the leader of the group.[3] The initial lineup consisted of nine girls: Jaina, Hyeni, Yehana, Woori, Vivian, Julie, Hal Park, Lina, & Suha.[3]

In 2017 and 2018, the group went through several personnel changes.

We Girls debuted on August 31, 2018 with the mini-album On Air, consisting of three tracks" We Go", "On Air" and "SelfieGram". The mini-album was produced by House Rulez.[4] The album reached 43 on the Gaon chart.
