Group Name: The group's name, Viviz, is an abbreviation of the phrase "Vivid dayZ", which brings together the concepts of "clear", intense, and days". As defined by the agency "the meaning of becoming artists who always they proudly express their own colors to the world". Also to note is that the last syllable of each member's name, Eunha (Eunbi (은비)), SinB (신비), and Umji (엄지) makes the group name in Korean.

Announcement: The trio, on January 14, announced that they will be debuting in February under BPM Entertainment who confirmed the same on January 24, with release of the EP slated for February 9. They soon started promoting on Social Media all leading up to the release of the EP.

And not to forget the other Prime Member of GFRIEND!


Yuju (유주), the high pitch soul of GFRIEND debuted as a solo artist under KONNECT Entertainment (WMG) back in Jan, 2022 with the song Play from [REC.] ALBUM. All songs are very deep and somber. Bad Blood as the name suggests may fit well for a KDrama / Murder Mystery... All songs are low key and little muted. Not the usual GFRIEND flair but kinda unique on its own. Play is awesome, Yuju is just brilliant. Powerful song! The Music will get you high.
