Sunmi and Tiffany will join Mnet’s global project ‘Girls Planet 999: Girls Saga’ as K-pop masters. On the 14th, Mnet confirmed Sunmi and Tiffany Young as the K-pop masters of ‘Girls Planet 999: Girls Saga’, and revealed the dance and vocal masters. Sunmi and Tiffany Young debuted in the music industry with the girl groups Wonder Girls and Girls’ Generation in 2007, respectively. They are still active with strong influence and are Korea’s representative K-pop artists who have a strong fan base at home and abroad. Sunmi said, “Tiffany Young and I have completely different personalities, so I’m really looking forward to the synergy and chemistry that comes from it,” in an interview released through Mnet at 10 am. “I think it’s a monumental event in that sense,” she said. Tiffany Young also said in the video, “I think the role of a K-Pop Master is a mentor and partner who can give cold and harsh criticisms at times.” PD Kim Shin-young, who directed ‘Girls Planet 999’, said, “The common denominator of the two artists, who have worked tirelessly from a young age to achieve their dream of becoming a K-pop idol, can have a positive impact on the participants in Korea, China and Japan who are now going that way. More than anything else, Sunmi was the first girl group to venture into the United States at the young age of 18, and Tiffany Young came to Korea from the United States to pursue her dream at a young age and made her debut after enduring the harsh life of a trainee. Based on these experiences, we expect that Sunmi and Tiffany will be able to provide practical advice and encouragement to the participants.”
