GIRLSET

Four girls, one hard reset, and absolutely no interest in pretending the comment section is harmless.

GIRLSET is Lexi, Camila, Kendall, and Savanna—the four members who carried a very public VCHA chapter into a sharper, louder second beginning.

GIRLSET in the official CHAT music video
Rae’s quick take: This is not a cute little rename where everybody changes the logo and hopes we forget the awkward part. GIRLSET feels like four women deciding the next chapter needs their fingerprints on it. The music is tougher, the styling is more deliberate, and “CHAT” literally turns public opinion into part of the set.

Current song: “CHAT”

The song in one sentence: GIRLSET takes everything strangers type about them, runs it through hyperpop production, and dances inside the noise instead of begging it to stop.

Released July 17, 2026, “CHAT” is the pre-release for GIRLSET’s upcoming debut album. The Stereotypes and 9am are behind the production, Colin Tilley directed the video, and the members have talked about helping shape the choreography, harmonies, visual references, fashion, and world around it. That matters: this is a song about controlling your own image, made by a group whose image has been argued over since before debut.

Song Reviews

CHAT

The comment section becomes a camera crew, and GIRLSET stops asking strangers to define the frame.

Tweak

The SWV “Weak” inversion, the stupid-boy boundary, both official videos, full credits, and why the salon/pole/ballet imagery caused a fight.

History: two names, one very public growing-up period

A2K and VCHA

JYP Entertainment and Republic Records created the group through the 2023 competition series A2K (“America2Korea”). The original six-member VCHA lineup was Lexi, Camila, Kendall, Savanna, KG, and Kaylee. Their pre-debut EP SeVit (New Light) arrived September 22, 2023 with “Y.O.Universe,” followed by official debut single “Girls of the Year” on January 26, 2024. They also opened selected dates on TWICE’s Ready to Be tour—an enormous room to learn in before the group had even settled into itself.

The long pause and the reset

Kaylee began a health hiatus in March 2024 and later left the group and company through a mutual contract termination announced in July 2025. KG said she decided to leave in May 2024 and filed a lawsuit against JYP USA in December 2024 alleging mistreatment, abuse, and violations involving young performers. JYP disputed her claims, calling them false or exaggerated. The dispute was settled in August 2025, and KG separated from the company. Those are allegations and responses—not permission for fandom telephone to turn either side into invented fact.

The remaining four members were introduced as GIRLSET on August 7, 2025. The name is meant to signal a group setting its own path without a fixed boundary. “Commas” followed on August 29, and it sounded like a transition on purpose: less glossy introduction, more insistence that the next sentence belonged to them.

The music file

VCHA pre-debut

SeVit (New Light): “Y.O.Universe,” “Go Getter,” “Know Me Like That.”

VCHA singles

“Ready for the World,” “Girls of the Year,” “Only One,” and holiday single “Favorite Girl.”

GIRLSET begins

“Commas” (2025) makes the handoff explicit. “Little Miss” follows, with a Missy Elliott remix in January 2026.

Current run

“Tweak” samples the memory of SWV’s “Weak” without behaving timidly. “CHAT” arrives in July 2026 as the doorway to the debut album.

LOCKETS: the fandom file

LOCKETS is the official fandom name. The idea is access and closeness: fans are the ones trusted with the key to the members’ hearts, while the locket itself keeps something meaningful close. Kendall designed the fandom logo, which is exactly the kind of member-made detail this era needs more of. It turns “fandom branding” into something one of the girls actually touched.

The complicated part, without turning it into sport

The VCHA-to-GIRLSET history is real context, not decorative “tea.” Two original members left under very different circumstances; one departure involved a public lawsuit and disputed claims. The cleanest way to follow it is by dates, direct statements, and court reporting—not edited clips that announce a villain before the source has finished loading.

What is fair to say: the four current members returned with more visible creative involvement and a more self-aware image. “CHAT” does not erase what happened. It shows a group that understands the audience is watching the recovery as closely as the comeback.
