Will the alleged SM Entertainment trainee Kim Yuni make it as part of the new girl group? Newly unveiled photos are building anticipation.

Across online communities like theqoo, two photos from the trainee’s “acquaintance” began circulating. The photos were first shared via “SM Trainee Gallery” on DC Inside. At first, K-Pop fans were skeptical about the photos, but the file name “240625 sm test” was soon deemed convincing enough.

People who attended the “SM Entertainment Trainee Showcase” then began recognizing the photos to be of the 2002-born Kim Yuni, a trainee who performed solo as a vocalist. The name and face reveal led to Kim Yuni’s 2020 videos from vocal lessons being uncovered as well.

Vocal trainer Jun Gi Young, who uploaded the videos, noted, “This is one of my favorite students, 18-year-old Kim Yuni, singing with her charming voice.”

Nothing has been confirmed as of now, though, given SM Entertainment’s “1Q25” plan to debut a new girl group has led to speculations about Kim Yuni being in the final lineup.
