Former Rainbow members Go Woo Ri and Cho Hyunyoung are making a fresh comeback with a new project group named Rainbow18, gaining attention recently through a web variety show documenting the unit’s formation process.
The group is set to release their new album on August 1 at 6 PM KST, under the management and creative direction of K-Tigers Entertainment.
This partnership marks a renewed collaboration, as K-Tigers Entertainment had previously been involved with Rainbow’s last album and continues to expand its presence in the entertainment industry.
The new unit’s journey will be showcased in a web program titled No Back Idol: Rainbow18, which will air every Friday at 6 PM on the No Back Tak Jae Hoon YouTube channel, starting June 27.
This show aims to give fans an inside look into the making and growth of the Rainbow18 project.
K-Tigers Entertainment, originally known globally for its taekwondo demonstration team, has broadened its scope to include music, film, content production, and live performances.
The company has previously managed artists such as April and KARD from DSP Media. CEO Ahn Chang Beom expressed his strong commitment to helping Rainbow18 achieve success that eluded the original group.
Notably, despite Rainbow’s long career, they never secured a #1 win on music charts, including with their final release, “Whoo.”
Ahn emphasized the goal of helping Rainbow18 hit #1 and even aim for the Billboard charts.
K-Tigers Entertainment recently gained international recognition for its collaboration with Sony Pictures on the Netflix original film KPop Demon Hunters, which topped charts in the U.S., Korea, and over 40 countries.
Multiple songs from the film’s soundtrack made it to the Top 10 on the U.S. iTunes chart, further highlighting the company’s growing influence in global entertainment.
This partnership and new project not only bring renewed hope to former Rainbow members but also position Rainbow18 as a promising new group with strong backing, a dedicated fanbase, and ambitious goals to leave a significant mark on the K-pop scene.
