HYBE is preparing to launch a new KPop girl group called Tuide under its recently created label ABD, which stands for A Bold Dream. The agency announced that the seven-member group will make its official debut later in 2026. The members’ names are Seohee, Seoyeon, Elena, Jia, Saki, Seah, and Yi Hani. Meanwhile, member Seoyeon has already captured attention, as she is the younger sister of TWICE leader Jihyo. In addition, Tuide opened their official social media accounts in July 2026, although their Instagram profile was set to private.
Before making its official debut, Tuide will hold a special event called Playground in Seoul on August 1, 2026, and August 2, 2026. The experience is designed to give fans an early introduction to the group. Only 225 people each day will be selected through a raffle to attend. Those who participate will receive commemorative gifts and enjoy special activities prepared by the girl group. Fans can submit applications through Tuide’s Weverse page until July 26, 2026, and the winners will be announced on July 28, 2026.

Tuide will become the first group launched by ABD since the label was established in May 2026. The company is led by No Ji-Won, who previously worked as the head of artist planning at Pledis Entertainment. HYBE affirmed that the new label will focus entirely on producing girl groups while exploring new ideas in KPop. Once Tuide officially debuts, the girl band will join other HYBE female bands, including NewJeans, ILLIT and LE SSERAFIM.
