And there you have it the members of Butterfly! Aren't they adorable? They even have an official fanclub name, despite not debuting yet, and it's called Monarchs, the fiercest, poisonous butterfly. Oh yeah! So send the Butterfly trainees on and wait patiently for their debut, I can almost guarantee it will be amazing. EQSOL fighting~!

Star would be the oldest out of every girl introduced and look like she's apart of the maknae line, of course! She has the Dara syndrome lol. And atleast Seulhye's not alone with being the shortest in the group, we have her younger Seul sister, Seulhee, to join the "barely 5ft" club. I can't wait to see how these girls grow! Butterfly Hwaiting~! Can't wait for EQSOL's official debut!

Youngjin is Donnie and Deukkie's little sister?! Woah, she must be really good then! Yay, Moa, she's like the first YG Japanese trainee to be announced and she's worked with Hiro's company, she's super experienced and she likes Gyaru fashion, I must see! I love the same fashion!

Nayeon is so stinking cute~! She has such a pretty smile and Yerin is such a squish. Maknae line seems so interesting. I can't wait to see what they have to offer!

Eunhwa seems like she's a mini Sey since they have the pokerface chicness going on! I wonder if she's be different compared to her appearance (there are so many idols who are like that lol). Best of luck to Butterfly!
