Girlset, formerly known as Vcha, is an American girl group based in Los Angeles. The group was formed by JYP Entertainment and Republic Records through the reality competition show A2K in 2023. The group consists of four members: Camila, Lexi, Kendall, and Savanna.

The group originally debuted as a six-member group alongside members KG and Kaylee under the name Vcha, before KG departed in December 2024 and Kaylee departed in July 2025. The remaining four members rebranded as Girlset in August 2025.

Name

[edit | edit source]

"Vcha", the group's former name, is derived from the Korean word "비춰" (RR: Bichwo), which translates to "to shine upon" or "to illuminate".[1][2] The name references the group's purpose to illuminate and inspire fans around the world.[3] Fans of Vcha are known as "Vlights".[4]

"Girlset", the group's current name, was chosen because the girls are "commit[ted] to setting their own, boundless path".[5]

History

[edit | edit source]

2023–2024: A2K, debut and opening for Twice

[edit | edit source]
Main article: A2K (TV program)

A2K is a 2023 American reality competition show. A2K, short for "America to Korea", was a collaborative project between JYP Entertainment and Republic Records, with the goal of forming the first American girl group using the K-pop system, intended for a global audience.[6][7] The group's name was announced as "Vcha" during the show's final episode on September 22, 2023, alongside the reveal of the six winning contestants.[6] Following A2K’s three-month bootcamp in Los Angeles, Vcha completed approximately five months of training at JYPE’s Seoul headquarters in preparation for their debut.[2][8]

Their pre-debut extended play, SeVit (New Light), was released on September 22, supported by the lead single "Y.O.Universe".[9] The same day, they performed this song on Music Bank as their first public performance.[10] Their second pre-debut single, "Ready for the World", originally the A2K theme song, was released on December 1, 2023.[11]

The group's official debut single, "Girls of the Year", was released on January 26, 2024, with b-side "XO Call Me".[12] In February and March 2024, the group performed as the opening act for a leg of Twice's Ready to Be World Tour, performing in São Paulo, Mexico City, and Las Vegas for a total of five shows.[13][14][15] On March 10, it was announced that Kaylee would be taking a hiatus due to a health condition.[2] The group's second single, "Only One", was released on March 15, with b-side "Favorite Girl."[16][17][18] In May, Vcha had their first cover story as part of Teen Vogue's Girl Group Week.[2]

2024–2025: KG's lawsuit, member departures and hiatus

[edit | edit source]

Vcha was originally set to make their first music festival appearance at Lollapalooza on August 2, 2024. However, the festival announced in July that they were no longer performing due to "unforeseen circumstances".[19][20]

On December 7, 2024, KG announced that she had decided to terminate her contract with JYP Entertainment and leave Vcha, citing "incidents of abuse and mistreatment by certain staff members".[21] She filed a lawsuit against JYP USA at the Los Angeles Superior Court on December 6.[22][23] According to KBS News and Hankyung, she said in her statement that, although she endured high-intensity work and extreme restrictions on her personal life, she received little salary and ended up in debt. She later stated that she did not want to blame anyone but the industry and also attributed her decision to leave to controversial issues in the industry, including a member's suicide attempt and the development of eating disorders. She closed her statement by saying that she hopes her decision to leave will help other trainees who are also struggling and that she would continue to work towards becoming a singer.[24][25] JYP USA later disputed her claims, citing them as "exaggerated", while also confirming the group's activities have been temporarily suspended as a result of the label's dispute with KG.[26] A second member, Kaylee, left the group and JYP Entertainment on July 12, 2025, through a mutual contract termination.[27] KG's lawsuit was settled on August 8, confirming her departure from JYP Entertainment.[28]

2025–present: Rebrand as Girlset

[edit | edit source]

On August 7, 2025, JYP Entertainment announced that the remaining members of Vcha, Camila, Lexi, Kendall and Savanna, would be rebranding under the name Girlset.[29]

The quartet released their first single, "Commas", on August 29.[30] The quartet welcomed its second single, "Little Miss", on November 14[31] and performed it on Good Day L.A. on the same day.[32]
