On March 31, footage of BLACKPINK’s pre-debut lineup, which included Miyeon alongside Jennie, Lisa, Rosé, and Jisoo, was leaked online. While Miyeon’s history as a former YG trainee is well-known, this marks the first time video evidence has surfaced of her training alongside the other members. Fans quickly took to social media to praise Miyeon’s vocal stability and stage presence, with many noting that her unique tone could have added a fresh dynamic to BLACKPINK’s signature sound.
The leaked video is part of a broader wave of supposed insider leaks from an individual claiming to be a former YG Entertainment employee. Known online as “YG Leaker,” this anonymous figure has threatened to release additional sensitive information related to BLACKPINK, other YG artists, and even external kpop agencies. Among the clips released, some have drawn controversy, particularly those featuring Jennie, Lisa, and Rosé performing rap covers containing offensive language.

Despite not debuting with BLACKPINK, Miyeon has since carved out a successful career as the main vocalist of (G)I-DLE. Many fans believe her journey has worked out for the best, allowing her to showcase her individual strengths and artistry in a way that may not have been possible within BLACKPINK’s concept. With the possibility of further leaks looming, both fans and the industry remain on edge, anticipating what new revelations may emerge.
