Several former members of the reality competition series The Debut: Dream Academy<\/a>,<\/em> which famously gave us KATSEYE<\/a>, are coming together to form a\u00a0new<\/em>\u00a0girl group, and they’re now seeking their fourth member.<\/p>\n

In case you need a quick refresher, The Debut: Dream Academy<\/em><\/a> was a competition series created in partnership between Geffen Records and HYBE with the mission of finding the members for a top global girl group, which became KATSEYE<\/a>. Each week, fans voted for their favorites, and the whole process was also documented documentary-style on Netflix’s Pop Star Academy: KATSEYE<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now, the same team behind Dream Academy<\/em> and KATSEYE is looking to create another<\/em> new global girl group with a new series called World Scout: The Final Piece,<\/em> which attempts to find that perfect final member of a foursome. The new series will take place in Japan and is likely to follow a similar format to Dream Academy.<\/em><\/p>\n

There are still many details we don’t know about the new group, including its name. However, three former\u00a0Dream Academy<\/em>\u00a0contestants have been officially named as members in a short film titled Prelude: The Final Piece<\/em>, and KATSEYE themselves have weighed in. Ahead, learn more about World Scout: The Final Piece<\/em> and the forthcoming girl group from Geffen x HYBE.<\/p>\n

Who are the members of HYBE x Geffen’s new girl group?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Currently, the lineup for HYBE x Geffen’s new girl group includes three former competitors from The Debut: Dream Academy:<\/em> Emily Kelavos, Lexie Levin, and Samara Siqueira. Both Emily and Samara made it to the Top 10<\/a>.<\/p>\n

19-year-old Emily, who grew up in Texas and is known for her dance skills, was eliminated in the finale and went on to dance alongside XG<\/a> at Coachella 2025. She also starred in the music video and choreographed \u201cHomewrecked\u201d by\u00a0Ad\u00e9la Jergov\u00e1<\/a>, another fellow Dream Academy<\/em> contestant.<\/p>\n
