Girl group Cherry Bullet is making a comeback after about a year with its second EP, said agency FNC Entertainment on Thursday.
The seven members are featured in two different posters -- one in dreamy purple setting and the other in black-and-white. The second EP will take the “lovely energetic” team one step further and will be more mature and heavier on concepts, noted its management company.
The band released its first EP “Cherry Rush” in January last year and three members -- Bora, Jiwon and May -- brought more attention to the band when they appeared in a survival audition program “Girls Planet 999: Girls’ Saga.” A total of 99 participants from China, Japan and Korea competed in the show that ended in October 2021 and nine top contestants from it debuted in January as Kep1er.
