The Next BLACKPINK? Here’s Why Expectations Are High For The Black Label’s First Girl Group MEOVV

The K-pop industry is currently buzzing with anticipation surrounding the debut of MEOVV, the first girl group to emerge from The Black Label, led by renowned producer and hitmaker Teddy. With expectations running high, many are wondering whether MEOVV has the potential to redefine the K-pop scene.

MEOVV’s debut has garnered widespread attention, largely due to their relationship with Teddy, who previously played a key role in shaping YG Entertainment’s iconic girl groups 2NE1 and BLACKPINK during his time at the famed K-pop agency.

According to The Korea Times, Teddy now has his own label and is preparing to introduce MEOVV as a formidable force in the fiercely competitive K-pop industry.

The five members of MEOVV—Ella, Gawon, Sooin, Anna, and Narin—have captivated fans, each bringing a unique touch to the upcoming girl group.

Ella, the first member to be revealed, has attracted particular attention due to her resemblance to BLACKPINK’s Jennie and her impressive social media following. She boasts over 4 million followers on Instagram even before her official debut. Her connections with BLACKPINK members Jennie, Lisa, Jisoo, and Rosé have added to the excitement surrounding the group’s debut.

Even before Ella was officially introduced as the first member of MEOVV, there was a lot of buzz around the upcoming girl group last year due to rumors that in addition to Ella, famous choreographer Bailey Sok was also joining the lineup. Shinsegae Chairman Chung Yoo-kyung’s eldest daughter, Annie Moon, also made headlines after rumors surfaced that she would be joining the group, according to KBIZoom.

Such speculations have made MEOVV one of the most talked about pre-debut groups in recent times.

As MEOVV prepares to debut, The Black Label has continued to build the group’s identity. With a concept revolving around the theme of five cats, MEOVV is carving out a niche in the market that reflects the bold and creative musical direction that Teddy is known for.

Many are eager to see if MEOVV will pursue the bold, girlcrush concepts that shaped Teddy’s previous success with BLACKPINK and 2NE1.

In an industry where first impressions can determine a group’s future, the pressure is on MEOVV to perform. However, The Black Label has expressed confidence in MEOVV’s ability to lead the new wave in the K-pop scene, with plans to introduce trendy music and content that resonates with both domestic and international audiences, according to The Korea Times.

The K-pop scene is currently in a state of flux, with trends changing and the focus shifting away from easy listening. MEOVV’s debut could mark a major turning point, potentially setting new trends and redefining the girl group market.

Neither The Black Label nor Teddy have announced an exact debut date for MEOVV, but it has been confirmed that the group will officially debut in September of this year.
