In recent years, the K-pop industry has seen a clear increase in the inclusion of non-Korean members within its groups. With the popularity of K-pop increasing, the genre has been expanding its global reach, surging the inclusion of non-Korean members in these groups.

This trend has sparked discussions among Korean netizens, with some expressing that it's becoming uncommon to find K-pop groups composed mostly of Korean members. Amidst this concern, SM Entertainment's new girl group has caught the attention of K-pop fans as the group is predominantly Korean.

According to rumors, Hearts2Hearts, SM's new eight-member group, features seven Korean members - Jiwoo, Haram, Stella (Dahyun), Jooeun, Yuna, Leean, and Nayeon—and one Indonesian member, Carmen.

Korean netizens and fans gathered in a popular forum to share their thoughts on SM's new girl group. Many netizens are expressing excitement to see a group with mostly Korean members. They commented:

"This is good."

"Wow, I really like them."

"I thought they were mostly non-Korean members but I guess the information got updated."

"There's no Chinese members?"

"Are the nationalities of the members real?"

"I'm so glad most of them are Korean."

"I want them to debut fast. I can't wait to see them on stage."

"There are no Japanese members too. Wow."

"I like that they are mostly Korean. That's what K-pop group should be like."
