Hannah has been living the life as a teen idol in South Korea. With no actual connections to the country or culture, Hannah is actually from Sweden; growing up in a small city for almost 16 years, she along with four friends of the same age came to Korea for an audition as a band for SM Entertainment. Five years ago, these five 15-going-16 years old girls won a contract with one of the biggest record labels in South Korea and soon enough they made their debut as the girl-group 5 Pieces – a loved and hated girl-group with Swedish members that somehow have captured the heart of the world and become one of South Korea’s most successful and popular artists and icons, gaining more and more attention worldwide.

‘5 Pieces makes music from the world, for the world’ – SM Entertainment’s CEO Lee Sooman, 2011-12

While living this amazing life with top selling albums and hit songs, Hannah is no longer a teenager and as she is growing so is also her group, leaving Hannah with so much more on her mind than just the passion to sing on stage and living the dream.

5 Pieces has been expanding worldwide. Having the image of being charismatic and strong young women, living far away from home and succeeding in every challenge they face, the girl-group have gained worldwide attention for a certain song in particular – [Daze] – for its strong lyrics and fun yet difficult choreography, catchy melody and with 5 Pieces bringing a stage presence that surely have made both women and men get shaky legs. But what seems to have caught the most attention is the fact that five years ago when 5 Pieces first made their debut, all they had was stage presence – their singing and dancing weren’t even average, they were bad – but it was their stage presence as well as unique personalities that were eye-catching in the Asian market. 5 Pieces keeps their image off stage, where they speak their mind and don’t hide to reveal their foolish sides, being more captivating as they on stage become charismatic and professional. The image of 5 Pieces is as natural as they would be at home with a bunch of friends, and the passion that have made them go from nothing to everything as they astonishes, impresses and inspires people.

Individually, 5 Pieces’ members have done more than just performing as a group. Solo activities with their own styles and songs, book releases, acting, radio DJ, modelling, song-writing, having their own variety/reality shows and it seems like it is nothing that these girls can’t do.

‘We will keep working hard as 5 Pieces; as sisters, friends and members, and we will do our best to not fail the people that believe in us’ – 5 Pieces’ Julia, 2012-12

Summer is coming to an end and 5 Pieces is busy every minute of the day. Their worldwide BLACK & WHITE tour has started and 5 Pieces are just as excited as their fans to reach both new and familiar places around the world, to meet even more fans with different cultures and to bring them all under one roof to see if music has a limit. But with a lot of international activities it is at the same time difficult for the girls who after five years feel very close to their home in South Korea.

Maria is finally letting out her solo album with high expectations, having promotions and performances daily, putting her in a difficult situation as the group’s leader; she just knows her members need her. Emelia is doing her own thing, with a big smile taking in her growing popularity that rises the more she shows her personality. Carolina has been planning to reveal her musical side on her own as she yet is the only member without her own solo songs, but will your own winning be worth if it comes in the way to other things? Julia is done promoting her debut single as a solo artist and she is ready to show the world the confidence she has received from solo promotions, but missing her family more and more, Julia feels she is parting two ways… Hannah is continuing the filming of her drama, struggling with the thoughts in her own world as no one seems to understand.

While 5 Pieces’ five members spend a lot of time doing their own thing, they are preparing for their next album in the middle of a messy and crowded schedule.

A challenge they maybe aren’t ready for, a meeting they never thought they would need, and people all around them either hating or loving them. 5 Pieces struggles individually and as a group, their friendship might be put to a test.

‘Youngest of Pieces: Five Years in History’ is a follower of the series about 5 Pieces’ Youngest. It will reveal and challenge more about 5 Pieces’ friendship and hardship, as well as into their careers and love, and even more. Can you keep up with pieces of one?
