Oh!GG, which consists of Sunny, Taeyeon, Hyoyeon, YoonA, and Yuri, debuted in 2018 with their single album “Lil’ Touch.”
The last release from this sub-unit was the special track “Melody,” part of the 2021 SMTOWN Winter: SMCU Express.
However, Yuri mentioned that continuing with Oh!GG would be complicated due to Sunny’s departure from SM Entertainment.

In response to the fan’s request for a new release this year and the following years, Yuri offered an optimistic perspective.
She noted, “Time really passes by in the blink of an eye, right? Next year is the 18th, the following year is the 19th, and it will be our 20th.” This hopeful sentiment adds to the anticipation surrounding their eventual comeback.
In the meantime, fans can enjoy the individual activities of the SNSD members. Each member has been pursuing their passions, with projects as singers, actresses, and entertainers. This keeps the spirit of the Girls’ Generation alive while they prepare for their future as a group.
