Classy (/ˈklæsi/; Korean: 클라씨; RR: Keullassi; stylized as CLASSy or CLASS:y) is a South Korean girl group formed through the MBC reality competition show My Teenage Girl and co-managed by M25, a subsidiary of PocketDol Studio, and Universal Music Japan. The group consists of seven members: Won Ji-min, Kim Seon-you, Myung Hyung-seo, Hong Hye-ju, Kim Ri-won, Park Bo-eun, and Yoon Chae-won. They officially debuted on May 5, 2022, with the extended play (EP) Class Is Over.

Name

[edit]

The group's name, Class:y, was suggested by the viewers of My Teenage Girl through the website Naver and chosen by M25. It was inspired by the members' "classy" charms and continued the school-related theme of My Teenage Girl, referencing "class" and "highest grade".[1]
