Loossemble, a portmanteau of “LOONA” and “assemble”, is a quintet that recently formed under CTDENM and features five LOONA members: Hyunjin, Yeojin, Vivi, Gowon and Hyeju. The group were formed in late-July, following the five members’ departure from Blockberry Creative.

Yesterday (August 20), Loossemble released a trailer called ‘..searching for their friends’, which teased that the girl group would be releasing new music on September 15. The date coincides with the start of their upcoming 2023 US tour in New York.

According to CTDENM, Loossemble will “kick off their activities in the United States, then return to Korea to continue their official activities”, per Korea JoongAng Daily. The K-pop agency also said that there will be a “finale” in Korea following their US tour.

Meanwhile, a Seoul court has reportedly ruled in favour of former LOONA member Chuu in her contract lawsuit against Blockberry Creative. It comes nearly a year after the K-pop agency removed the singer from the girl group.
