LPG has declared their plans for a Japanese advancement, but unlike their competitors, they won’t be diving into the idol market. Instead, they’ll be heading for Japan’s enka market, a genre which resembles traditional Japanese music (like Korea’s ‘trot’ genre).

On February 25th, the girls’ agency, Chani Music, revealed, “They’ve received love calls from three major Japanese distribution companies, which we are looking over now. We predict that finalization of details – such as their Japanese agency and album release – will be done as early as next moth.
Korean stars like as Tae Jin Ah and Park Hyun Bin are currently promoting in the enka market, which makes LPG the first Korean girl group. Their representative continued, “We received a lot of contract offers due to the fact that there aren’t any young enka singers like LPG in Japan, or for that matter, any enka singers made up into teams, so there’s a high potential for success.”



LPG officially began preparations last year by taking Japanese lessons with a language teacher.
The girls have also been selected as CF models for makeup brand “A.C.CARE“, and they’ll begin promotions and advertisements starting April.

Finally, LPG will be holding a 30-minute mini-concert with 50,000 guests at a stadium in Osaka for a celebratory performance in the Korean-Japanese celebrity baseball team friendship match.

It was recently announced that former LPG member Han Young has been appointed a fixed role on the MBC daily sitcom “All My Love” as a school teacher.

Han Young’s character is a teacher who graduated from university earlier than others, and she enters the “Top Student Academy” as the youngest teacher at 22 years of age. In her first episode, she sheds tears because the other teachers tease her for her older-looking image, and she confesses that her older image and tall height were her greatest complexes.

Han Young stated, “In real life, I’m actually the oldest ‘teacher’ at 34 years, but for the sitcom’s plot, I act as the youngest teacher at 22. Many viewers might think of me as an old person, but I actually have a baby face.”

She continued, “My hopeful love line is with teacher Ban Woo Jin (Yeon Woo Jin). I will construct my own character through this sitcom.”

Han Young is scheduled to make her first fixed appearance in the 67th episode of the show, which will come on February 23rd.
