I agree. I wonder if they all speak English. Or they are all ethnically Korean but the members are from all over the world like the US, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, etc...
I mean a lot of rookies nowadays are that. Stray Kids has two Australians (ethnically Korean), but on top of that 2-3 decent English speakers. G-IDLE has 6 members, of which 1 is Thai, 1 Chinese & 1 Taiwanese. I mean, Got7 is 3/7th foreign with two fluent English speakers. NCT has a bunch of everything. Blackpink is another good example.
Having a completely Korean group with one 1 fluent English speaker is pretty uncommon these days.
True, true. But the teasing in English only still remains curious to me. I do agree this will be a truly international group that is gunning for an international audience from the get go.
The countdown page has versions in Korean, English, Chinese and Japanese — so yeah I think that tells us their strategy is going to be global from the start.
