How and when did you enter Groo? 

During 'Red Sun' promotions in 2019 I was just getting introduced to K-Pop and saw a video of Miya, that’s what pulled me into becoming a full K-Pop fan and most importantly a Groo!
Saz
I became a Groo before GWSN debuted in August 2018. I discovered GWSN via an app called "Amino" and found out that they didn't debut yet. So I became a Groo and waited for their debut!
Viha
Well I initially got into GWSN’s music around autumn of 2019?? But it was only a few of their songs like 'Night Aviation', 'Tok Tok', 'Bloom' & 'Recipe for Simon' as they came up in a Spotify daily mix I was playing and I saved them. Then I gradually started listening to more of their discography in early 2020 and that was when I was like damn… this group is something special I want to stan so 'Bazooka' was my first official comeback with GWSN even though I listened to them months prior. So yeah their music was the deciding factor. Woosie

GWSN Official

I am a pre-debut Groo ~ I started following news about GWSN on 16 June 2018, after I saw a Tweet by their company announcing the upcoming debut of their first girl group. At the time I was only following K-Pop boy groups and didn't think I'd ever follow a girl group. Something told me that I needed to follow this girl group, and thank goodness I did, because I've continued to be a loyal fan ever since!
Eleanor
I became a Groo in June of 2018 after coming across GWSN's new girl group member reveal photos. The members and concept immediately caught my attention and so I kept up with them and awaited their debut!
Sarah
In 2019, I added their song 'RED-SUN' to my playlist after finding an edit using that song under the replies of a tweet. I liked the song so much that I eventually decided to check the group out on my own; after watching a few of their MVs, I was hooked.
Jocey

GWSN Official

I became a Groo in October of 2018! I had heard of GWSN pre-debut, and once I saw the group had debuted I checked out their 'Puzzle Moon' music video and stages, as well as their first mini album and other videos of them. I loved the amazing talents, potential and charm of the group and wanted to keep following and supporting them!
Alyssa
I became a Groo in June of 2020, during the pandemic. GWSN helped me to stay motivated every day despite the hardships. I found GWSN through "the Keys" comeback!
Mia-July
I became a part of the fandom since predebut days. After watching Miya’s busking performance of this DNA x Whistle fancam; (official cover here), I immediately searched about her,and eventually learned about all the members of GWSN. At that time, I was not actively supporting any artist and I just knew I had to watch out for this upcoming group. I made a twitter account only for them and enjoyed more content leading to their debut. Finally upon watching their music video of Puzzle Moon, I knew I was going to stay. It’s been more than three years since then, and I just love them more as a Groo.
Thea

I stumbled across the GWSN debut clip - 'Puzzle Moon' a few days / weeks after release. I immediately got hooked on the musical style and the visual of the band and the music video. So I continued to follow the band and comeback after comeback I liked their music and their concept more and more.
Xavier

 

What are the reasons why you love GWSN?

I feel like each member has so many unique talents and personality traits and they all treat Groos like friends so feel so welcome here. Their discography and concept is also so cohesive and amazing that I never get tired of replaying their songs!
Saz
The thing I love the most about GWSN is how comforting and beautiful their music is. They have music for all kinds of days (good days and bad) and they give me a lot of comfort and love through their music. Not only this, but all the members are so amazing and loving, which makes me want to love them more.
Viha
I love GWSN because all of the members are so talented, each of their strengths compliment each other so as a team they are very strong and balance each other out well. I also love how, even though they come from a smaller company, it does not take away from the quality of their music and performances. They are so special and unique, I think they are a hidden gem in the K-Pop industry and I can’t wait till more people discover them and support them because they deserve it all!!
Woosie

I think I could fill a book with the many reasons why I love GWSN, but I think what I adore most about them is that I genuinely love each and every one of their songs, and all the members, with their different and genuine personalities, are some of the loveliest people in the world. GWSN has become such a big part of my life, and will forever hold a very special place in my heart.
Eleanor
There are so many reasons why I love GWSN. For starters, the 7 members of GWSN are all so charming in their own ways and as a group I believe they work so well together. GWSN truly feels like a family and it's been a pleasure spending these 3 years growing with them. I love how involved they all are in checking up on Groo, like providing us with daily SNS updates, talking to us on the FanCafe, and hosting V-Live chats. In the ways that I support them, it also feels like they try their best to support me too, and I will always be grateful for that. Each member exhibits such a passion for what they're doing which just motivates me even more as a Groo to help GWSN achieve their dreams in any ways that I can.
Sarah
GWSN has an amazing discography, interesting concepts and is made up of incredibly talented girls. Each member has a fun personality and they always make sure to show a lot of love to their fans.
Jocey

The members of GWSN are all very lovely, sweet and talented, and I feel their passion for performing their music. The fantastic music and concept of GWSN come together to make a wonderful fan experience; I really feel like I am a Groo amongst the park when I listen to them and watch their videos. They make me happy in a very peaceful and refreshing way, and I love seeing the members grow and show a new side to themselves and more of what they can do with every new comeback.
Alyssa
I love GWSN mostly for their bright personalities! I remember watching the 0to1 cam in which GWSN members plant trees for an elementary school and really falling in love with them, I think it displays their kind personalities so well. I also love GWSN's unique music and lovely voices! They have music for everyone and every mood so everyone can enjoy them! Mia-July
I love them because they have such amazing talents and quirks as a group and as individuals, aside from their stellar music. They are hardworking and dedicated. Most of all, they always show their love for Groos through their actions and words.Thea
I love GWSN for many reasons. First of all, I love their music, the titles are all great and the B-sides are quality all the time, their discography is perfect. I also really like the concept of the group, which can be seen in the music videos but also in the albums. The members are also so talented and very engaging, I find them very natural.Xavier

 

Which member caught your attention at first and why? 

Miya, she doesn’t look like the typical girl group member and her girl crush style draws in a lot of female fans, especially LGBT ones, and that caught my eye.
Saz

Miya and SeoRyoung caught my attention first because of their visual. Finding female idols who look (androgynous) like Miya in the industry is rare and that's why she caught my attention in the beginning the most ^^.
Viha

The member who caught my eye first was probably Anne, since 'Bazooka' was my first comeback I really think it was her era. In 'The Aerialist (Wonderboy)' which is a B-side they promoted, her visuals were so eye catching I couldn’t not notice her.
Woosie

When the group member teasers were first released in 2018, the member that first caught my attention was Anne ~ I really liked her red hair! Eleanor

GWSN Official as recommended by Eleanor

The first member who caught my attention was Miya. It's funny because at that point I had only seen her member reveal video, which didn't really show her face a lot. It was her style and aura that really interested me, and from there I went on to support the 7 members as GWSN.
Sarah

Miya was the first member I saw of GWSN. I saw a video of her from GWSN’s pre-debut busking appear on my SNS timeline, when she was performing a dance cover of 'Blood, Sweat and Tears', and I was amazed by her dancing as well as her beauty! It is thanks to Miya I found out about the name of GWSN.
Alyssa

Anne and SoSo caught my attention first for their pretty voices and cool visuals. Anne in the 'Bazooka' MV helped me decide I wanted to be a groo, she was so cool. Mia-July

Unsurprisingly it was Miya. The busking video I was talking about was actually on the explore page of my Instagram. I remember being mesmerized by her charisma as she danced expressively.Thea
The first to have caught my attention was Miya, for her visual. She is so beautiful! I also really love the way she raps.Xavier

Who is your GWSN bias, and why? 

Miya is my bias, I feel like I can relate to her in the way that she’s not afraid to be herself and express herself even when it doesn’t fit in with everyone else. I also admire how talented she is whether it’s dancing, rapping, singing, drawing, designing, fashion, etc she can do it all so well and you can tell how passionate she is.  Her personal styling: Saz

Anne is my bias! All of them are so talented, but Anne stood out to me the most since 'Puzzle Moon' era. She's a total ace, she can dance, act, sing and rap. She's also very cute and kind and I love that about her. Viha

Lena is my GWSN bias because I fell in love with her voice. I actually run a page dedicated to her vocals because I love it so much. Also we are the closest in age so I think I relate to her the most with some of the topics she speaks about on V-Live. Woosie

Anne has remained my bias from the beginning, but now shares the top spot with the fairy leader SeoRyoung~ Miya, SeoKyoung, MinJu, SoSo and Lena are all definitely my bias wreckers though.. It's impossible to not love them all!

My biases in GWSN are Miya and SoSo! I like to combine their names and say I am Mi-So biased, but I love GWSN so much that it feels like I really bias all of them.Sarah

Kpopmap Fan Interview: 10 Groos Explain Why They Love GWSN & Their Bias

Miya is my bias because she’s very charismatic, she has a bright personality and we have a similar personal style, as well as a shared love of art.
Jocey

Kpopmap Fan Interview: 10 Groos Explain Why They Love GWSN & Their Bias

GWSN Twitter

My bias is SoSo! I watched videos of her dancing, particularly of her waacking, and I loved watching her dance! She is very beautiful, very talented, and she has a lovely charm! She has a bright and fun energy that she brings to the group, an energy that makes me smile.Alyssa

My GWSN bias is Lena! She first became my bias when I watched her Aesop's Fables ASMR and it helped me to unwind after a stressful day. Lena's voice and bubbly personality make me so happy and rejuvenated; just watching her and listening to her voice is comforting and makes me feel safe.
Mia-July

Miya and SoSo! Miya, aside from being a K-Pop idol, is an artist through and through. She explores different media in her art; she has designed the album covers for "The Keys" and "The Other Side of the Moon". She has an easygoing personality and she’s effortlessly funny, too. SoSo is such an endearing girl. She has the most charming smile and facial expressions, which are entertaining to look at whenever she's joking with the members. She is good at dancing, especially waacking and voguing! SoSo is beautiful inside and out, and she always works hard.
Thea

My bias is Anne. She has many talents! First of all, I love her rap but also the way she sings. She also knows how to play piano and she is also an actress because she has appeared in several dramas. She is also very pretty and very kind. Xavier

GWSN Twitter

 

Can you recommend a title track and a B-side track by GWSN for new fans?

I would recommend the title track 'Pinky Star', the music video showcases their unique concept and the song always gives me a lot of energy. Saz

I would recommend 'The Aerialist (Wonderboy)' as a B-side, it showcases how diverse their range of genres is and it’s a very unique sound in K-Pop. Saz

For title I recommend red sun, and for B-side I recommend 'Burn'!Viha

For a title track I recommend 'Puzzle Moon', even though it is not my #1 fave title track by them, I think it is a great introduction to their sound which is what I would call, twinkly sparkly fairy space music haha.
For a B-side I can’t not choose 'Night Aviation', that song is known to be a stan attractor, whenever I try to get somebody into GWSN I always lead with it because it is a perfect song.Woosie

For new Groo, I would like to recommend 'Puzzle Moon' and 'Starry Night' ~ Over and above it being an amazing deep-house track, 'Puzzle Moon' represents the beginning of GWSN's journey to realize their dreams. 'Starry Night' is a B-side from their most recent album, and not only are the lyrics written by SeoRyoung and Lena, this song has the ability to comfort you in your loneliest moments by transporting you to a special place amongst the stars in the night sky. Eleanor

The thing about GWSN is that they have a song for everybody. If I were to recommend a title track to newer fans, I would probably recommend 'Pinky Star'! It's a very universally loved song by Groo and casual listeners, and I don't blame them because it's such a feel good song with bright energy! As for B-sides, I would recommend 'Night Aviation'. It's a beautiful song that really showcases the members' vocals and it's just a really great and catchy song. It's on the calmer side, but I am always in the mood to listen to it. I'd say it's some of their best work.Sarah

For a title track, I’d recommend their most recent comeback 'Like it Hot', and for a B-side I’d recommend 'Shy Shy'.
Jocey

I would recommend the title track 'Pinky Star'! The B-side track I would recommend is 'The Aerialist (Wonderboy)', which a lot of people who aren’t Groo yet are often surprised by and enjoy!
Alyssa
A title track I would recommend is 'Puzzle Moon'! I think GWSN's debut displays their charms very well and is a well-loved track by lots of Groo because of its distinct sound. A B-side I would recommend is 'Recipe ~ for Simon'! I think this fun song is good for understanding what GWSN's sound is, and displays a cheerful side to GWSN rather than their usual dreamy songs. Mia-July

'Growing for Groo': a song dedicated to fans. The lyrics are touching and personal. This song makes me cry in the best way possible.
'Night Aviation': the quintessential dreamy, hypnotic GWSN song that one would love to get lost into.
'I Can’t Breathe': where we see a darker side to GWSN which they are more than capable of pulling off.Thea

For a new fan I will recommend as a title 'Pinky Star' because it is my favorite title. And in B-Side I would recommend 'The Aerialist (Wonderboy)' because it would allow to see another side of GWSN.Xavier

 

Can you recommend a fancam, V-live, cover video, cover dance, or individual content video of your bias to our readers?

I would recommend Miya’s dance cover of Taemin’s 'Criminal', she’s a big fan of Taemin and his choreography is so advanced and I think she does an amazing job showcasing the feeling and concept of this song.Saz

I recommend 'NO' choreography cover by Anne.Viha

For fancam, I recommend 'I can't breathe' "Simply K-Pop" fancam.
Viha

I would recommend SeoRyoung & Lena’s ‘Santa Tell Me’ cover video, you can really hear how great vocalists they both are.
Woosie

As Anne has a passion for both acting and playing the piano, I would like to recommend the advert she was featured in for NH Honghyup Bank, as well as a piano cover she did of 'River Flows in You' by Yiruma.Eleanor

As SeoRyoung is one of GWSN's wonderful main vocalists, I would like to recommend a duet she released with Son DongWoon called 'Color Me', as well as her cover of 'eight' by IU.Eleanor

 

 

I would recommend Miya's fancams for their newest comeback, 'Like It Hot' as well as SoSo's fancams for 'Pinky Star'. I believe that you'll fall for their charms in no time. Miya is one of the members who does frequent dance covers, and I'd personally recommend her cover of 'Criminal' by Taemin which can be found on GWSN's YouTube channel.Sarah

 

One of my favorite dance covers that Miya has done is Taemin’s 'Criminal'; I would watch it a lot when it came out, so I really recommend it. Jocey

I’d love to recommend that you watch SoSo’s waacking/voguing dance she showed off on "Weekly Idol" Ep. 375! It was this dance of hers which had SoSo catch my attention, endear her to me, and made me want to see more of her dancing!Alyssa
My favourite Lena V-live is her singing V-live on 200911! Her singing is so pretty and her ability to speak English and Korean is so impressive! I love her V-lives that are really long and relaxed, they make me feel calm and display her charms well, I think she is very easy to love during these videos. I would also recommend her 'I Can't Breathe' fancam on 210604, her duality is amazing. She is so cool on stage but so happy and bubbly off stage!
Mia-July

V-live: this Miya V-Live where she shares some of her illustrations. She also drew a self-portrait live, and things got a little intense. Fancam: this SoSo facecam where you can see her switch expressions like the professional that she is. Cover video: Miya’s cover of Taemin’s 'Criminal' Individual content of bias: SoSo answering questions on "Idol Ground" and more (ft. SeoKyoung).Thea

'No' choreography cover by Anne. Xavier

 

Can you also do the same type of recommendation for GWSN in general?

I will recommend this cute video of the girls making songpyeon together, I think it shows how funny and charismatic they all are and it always makes me smile! Saz

I recommend 'MAMA 2018 outro dance' and 'MrMr Choreography Cover'.Viha

I would recommend all their predebut busking videos.Woosie

For GWSN in general, I would like to recommend one of my favourite V-Lives that shows just how unique and funny they are, as well as a DEEP DIVE interview they recorded for 'Form of Therapy'. For new fans of GWSN, I would like to recommend a compilation video of their five title-track performances on MCountdown since debut, as well as the music video for their beautiful fan song called 'Growing ~ for Groo'. Eleanor

As for full group content, GWSN has put out a lot over the years. Their YouTube channel is a gold mine for content that will introduce you to their personalities and dynamic. They've done games, challenges, reaction videos, vlogs, and covers just to name a few types of videos you will find on their channel. One of their most popular videos is 'DNA x Whistle' which is a predebut dance cover they did that caught a lot of peoples' attention. It's worth checking out, they're such good dancers with amazing presence.
Sarah

GWSN has a series called “Wish On Tree” where they do various activities suggested by fans, it’s a cute and fun way to get to know the members!
Jocey
I recommend GWSN’s dance practises of their pre-debut cover dances which show how talented they have been since before debut! I also recommend GWSN’s "Wish On Tree" videos which shows the members’ sweet personalities!
Alyssa

For GWSN in general, I would recommend their 'Whisper the Recipe' feature! It's funny and heartwarming to see them work together and displays their charms well. I think also their dance practices are so fun to watch! My favourite is the 'Like it Hot ZOOVer.' as it is the first dance practice to include SoSo after her hiatus! It was so energising to see them all together again.
Mia-July

GWSN did both overall and individual challenges while dancing to “RED-SUN”
Thea

This live at Busan, so fun Xavier

 

Can you share with us one of your favorite lyrics by the group? 

I think this lyric from 'I Sing' is really beautiful and has a hopeful message: 
“저 노을이 지나면
이젠 아무러질 텐데
난 언제나 베인 상처를 안고 살아”
translated:
“When the sun sets
Everything will heal
But I'm always holding onto the scars in me.” Saz

"Tonight, have sweet dreams without a worry
Don’t worry, don’t worry
Close your eyes, let out a deep breath
Don’t toss and turn, don’t be nervous
Good night" -'Lullaby', GWSN
Viha

"Did you wake up? Clothes? Hat? Shoes? It’s alright" from 'All Mine', I just think the line is such an iconic opening line and if GWSN goes on tour I can already hear all the Groos screaming it lol.
Woosie

"With every changing season
You sprouted up
And more and more
You become the meaning of my life
Grow fully to reach the sky
You'll reach it soon
Baby Baby
You shore my world"

 

- 'Growing ~ for Groo' by GWSN
Eleanor

I've always really appreciated GWSN lyrics, but if I had to pick one for now, I'd probably pick "my cold and dark night will be colored brightly again" from 'Starry Night'. It feels so personal and the song as a whole can be relatable to so many people.
Sarah
“I try with all my strength to find light and escape the night, but my heart, as if it’s nothing gets colored black once again” - 'Starry Night'.
Jocey
“Where are the stars that will shine in my night sky? I’m wandering” – 'Starry Night'
Alyssa
My favourite GWSN song lyrically is 'Starry Night'. I think the sound captures the feeling of the lyrics perfectly and it always makes me cry. My favourite lyrics particularly from 'Starry Night' is 'When everyone else is asleep at night / It's the festival of colourful stars / In there, I'm swimming alone.' I think this song is best listened to best on a clear night, when your emotions are high.
Mia-July

“Stop The Way, it’s ok to stop for a bit
Step By Step, it’s ok to walk again
Stand By Me, don’t hesitate
Let’s walk into the sunlight” - 'Let It Grow'
Thea

Lyrics of 'All mine':
"Did you wake up?
Clothes, hats, shoes
It's all right"
I found these lyrics so cute and it fit so well this song.
Xavier

 

Are there any words from the members you would like to share? 

During their last promotion period SeoRyoung came on the fancafe to comfort Groos who were nervous about the fan calls, she said: 
“Don't be nervous during the fansign...Everyone...I understand that feeling... (。•́︿•̀。) Looking back later, it's really unfortunate. Since I like you a lot, that time is more precious. So I want to do better for you, so I'm nervous too.” I thought it was so kind of her to share her own worries and make us feel more comfortable.
Saz
Once in a V-Live I told Anne how school work was stressing me out and then she comforted me and told me that even she used to have a lot of school work that was hard to manage. She told me to cheer up :). Viha

Mnet

I would like to share Lena's words from the 'Form of Therapy' DEEP DIVE interview:

 

"Even extremely happy moments
Can fade away with time
And often, even the happiest moments after time
Can also hurt me as well
So rather than having a 'happiest moment'
I prefer smaller happy and calm memories
And so I think everyday life brings me happiness."
Eleanor
GWSN once said to Groo that we would be forever growing and it's always the first thing I think of when I find myself celebrating a GWSN comeback or achievement. It's very sentimental to me.
Sarah
Anne once said that Groo are “precious people” who she wants to brag about because they bring her joy, so for any Groo that may be having a bad day, remember that girls appreciate you a lot!
Jocey

I’d like to share what the members have earnestly said about being GWSN and about Groos that show how sincere they are as a group. Whether it’s SeoKyoung saying at their 1st anniversary fanmeeting that she wishes GWSN and Groo could stay together for a hundred years, or SeoRyoung saying their long-term goal is to be able to go around the world and have more people recognise their music, or Anne saying that Groo are precious people that she wants to brag about to others.
Alyssa
When times are rough, I listen to 'Lullaby.' That song calms my tired heart and lulls me into a peaceful sleep into the night.
Thea

 

Do you feel there are any misunderstandings, things that are not well known, or any prejudices about GWSN from other fans (non-fans)?

I think many people might not know that GWSN recently released a song with a strong cool girl crush concept, it’s much darker than anything they’ve done before and proves they can do any genre! The song is 'I Can’t Breathe':Saz

Maybe non fans think that GWSN can only do cute and fresh concepts, but that's a misconception. They've done dark stages like I can't breathe and like it hot!Viha
Okay so I have a couple of things to say, first of all WJSN and GWSN are NOT THE SAME !!! So many people get them but let’s set the record straight, GWSN is girls in the park and WJSN are cosmic girls.
Secondly just because GWSN is not a popular group does not mean they are untalented and make bad music, lots of people pass on the chance of stanning them because they are from a small company but stanning GWSN will be the best decision of your life !!! Like I mentioned earlier, their music quality is always top notch no matter the financial circumstances of the company.
Woosie
I think one of the biggest misconceptions by non-fans is about member Miya. I have seen many comments about her 'tomboy' style being a concept or gimmick created by their company, but this could not be further from the truth. Her shorter hair and clothing style is just the way she is, and it is a relief that she has been able to present her own personal style and genuine self to fans.

Something unknown about GWSN is how good their music really is. I firmly believe that the average person would absolutely love most if not all of GWSN's title tracks and B-sides. They're a smaller group, so naturally they don't have as much exposure as other groups we see today. I think that with enough support, GWSN can be one of the most impactful K-Pop groups out there. They explore new concepts all while maintaining their own GWSN sound and every comeback has been so refreshing and fun. I think everyone should stan GWSN!

Kpopmap Fan Interview: 10 Groos Explain Why They Love GWSN & Their Bias

GWSN is very underrated as a group, so many K-Pop fans tend to overlook them, but they’re just as hardworking and talented as any other group. They have outstanding vocalists, dancers, visuals, and in my opinion, one of the best overall discographies in K-Pop.

I feel like a lot of people just are not aware of just how talented GWSN are, how amazing their music is, or the fact that GWSN are so versatile and can do any sort of concept! Lots of people when they do discover GWSN are surprised that their music has been such a hidden gem and love so much of it! I just wish more people knew!

I think people are too quick to dismiss GWSN's bright songs because their dreamy songs are so good, however, I think some of GWSN's best songs are their bright songs! My favourite song to watch fancams of is 'All Mine' and 'Bazooka' because members look so happy to be performing and it makes me like their bright songs even more. Mia-July
It might seem like supporting a group that has been in the industry for three years is daunting, but I hope they give GWSN a chance! GWSN has phenomenal music and are absolutely talented sweethearts. The girls never fail to express how grateful they are to their fans. Also, Groos are such an amazing diverse group of fans and we all help each other a lot; you will surely find your place to belong here and grow with both Groo and GWSN. Thea

GWSN have a good image, there are no problems there but they are not well known and recognized for their talent.Xavier
