NewJeans just took the K-Pop world by storm with their surprise debut, dropping not one but two new songs with additional tracks on the way.

The five-member girl group is produced by Min Hee Jin, the CEO of ADOR Entertainment and the former creative director of SM Entertainment, where she was the driving force behind some of f(x), EXO, and Red Velvet‘s most iconic concepts.
