The SBS series Universe Ticket was a K-pop girl group survival show with a huge 82 contestants, and the eight winners formed a new project girl group at F&F Entertainment, UNIS, which is to perform together for 2.5 years. Lee Hwan Jin, who formerly produced the similar SBS series Loud, was the PD on this series as well, and the number 82 draws significance from the country calling code for South Korea, +82.

Among the 82 Universe Ticket contestants, there were a few who came from notable backgrounds or had prior experience in K-pop. For example, Kwon Chaewon, the second oldest contestant, is a member of the girl group DIA. Jang Minju, the fourth oldest contestant, was previously part of the girl group Majors, going by the name Aki. Jin Hyeonju is part of the girl group Cignature, going by the name Belle. Jeon Jieun is the leader of the girl group Busters. And Kim Hyemi is the younger sister of AOA’s Chanmi (who now goes by Dohwa, such as on Queendom Puzzle).

As you can see here, with the wide spread of ages, some contestants were incredibly young, with a handful of 12-year-olds. Usually, the youngest that an idol will debut is age 14. Hopefully these young girls can manage the tremendous pressure of attempting to become idols.
