On a recent episode of MBC’s ‘Three Wheels,’ girl group SPICA member, Kim Boa, impressed the viewers with her pre-debut experience as the guide and chorus for several popular artists’ songs. A guide refers to the vocals that the artists hear of the song before they record it themselves.

The other guests on the show were surprised to find that Boa was 26 years old. She explained that she hasn’t been in other idol groups in the past, but she has worked with famous artists such as Lee Hyori, T-ara, 4minute, and Girls’ Generation. She proved this by showing off her strong vocals while performing a song that she recently worked as a guide for, T-ara’s “Lovey Dovey.”

You guys should try to check out the latest episode of “Three Wheels” to see Boa’s talents and SPICA’s performance of their latest single, “Russian Roulette.”

SPICA, produced by singer Lee Hyori‘s entertainment label is receiving some new attention, as it has recently been revealed that member Kim Bo Hyung was previously a YG Entertainment trainee preparing to debut as a member of 2NE1.

Kim Bo Hyung is the lead vocal of SPICA, and the singer trained with the 2NE1 members under YG Entertainment for 2 long years. During an interview conducted with SportsKorea on January 31st, Kim Bo Hyung remarked, “I trained with the four 2NE1 members, however after 2NE1 made their debut as a 4-member group, CEO Yang Hyun Suk introduced me to this new label and I eventually became a member of SPICA.”

Kim Bo Hyung has not revealed this information to the public until now. She did not want the public to misunderstand that she was using this information as a way of promoting her new group. But as she made her official debut with SPICA, the news naturally spread.

“I learned a lot from YG Entertainment,” she said. “They taught me everything from A-Z. When I look at past videos of myself as a YG trainee, I can see where I was lacking. I want to develop those areas and become a more mature musician as a member of SPICA.”

Singer Lee Hyori herself has participated in producing SPICA, offering her advice and ideas regarding album jacket designs, stage ensembles, and more. Also in the group is ‘Super Star K‘ contestant Park Narae, and member Yang Jiwon, who was previously in a different girl group. The other two members are Kim Boa who possesses extreme vocal talent and Park Ju Hyun, a previous model who has filmed a number of CFs.

Could you imagine 2NE1 with 5 members?
