On top of that, Fifty Fifty’s monthly listeners on the platform are now over 16 million.

They released an English version of “Cupid”

Since “Cupid” became a hit, the group released an English version called “Cupid (Twin version),” for those who want to sing along without butchering the Korean language. Either way, both the Korean and English interpretations are bops.

The group’s name has a significant and special meaning

It may surprise you, but most K-pop group names aren’t just a bunch of letters pieced together to sound ~*cool*~. They also hold special meanings, like Fifty Fifty, which represents “life with a 50% chance of dream and a 50% chance of reality.” The name also embodies a bond with their fans, with the first “Fifty” representing the girls and the other “Fifty” signifying the fans. Isn’t that sweet?

Fifty Fifty wants to dabble in genres like hip-hop and rock

The girls of Fifty Fifty may be newcomers, but don’t let this fool you because they’re not afraid to go outside their comfort bubble. The group said they want to pull off an old-school hip-hop choreography or try out a rock band music concept. If they suit up for any of those styles, fans would be thrilled to see it for sure!

Artists in their own right

Even though K-pop idols are often unfairly called “manufactured” or “investments,” Fifty Fifty wants to break out of that by showcasing more of their talents. Aside from being the group’s main dancer, Saena wants to try her hands at music production. Meanwhile, Sio and Aran both have mesmerizing vocals. And then there’s Keena, who co-wrote the lyrics for “Cupid.” Truly a talented bunch!
