The company had already said that a new all-male act was being prepared in their roster, but this update gave fans a clearer idea of the schedule and group size. It also sparked interest in who the members could be.<\/p>\n<p>Yang Hyun Suk, the founder and executive producer of YG Entertainment, shared the information in a video posted on the agency\u2019s official blog.
