Rookie girl group Hello Venus is preparing to release new music in the middle of December.
The group will be returning to the music scene with all 6 members. It has been promoting with only 5 members after Yoonjo injured her leg earlier this year.
"Hello Venus is working hard to make their comeback in mid-December. You'll be able to see the perfect Hello Venus with all 6 members for the new album," Pledis Entertainment stated.
"It was disappointing that Yoonjo was injured right before filming their ['Venus'] music video, so she's very excited for the comeback. Look forward to seeing Yoonjo on stage," they said in regards to Yoonjo.

The Korean music scene has seen more than enough girl groups flop as they try to break into the competitive industry. Expectations remain low for many new groups until they prove themselves to be something worth paying attention to.
During an interview with Sports Chosun, rookie girl group Hello Venus revealed that they were hurt by people's lack of confidence in their abilities.
"When we read the replies, we noticed that there were comments like, ‘Another one? They’ll disappear like the others, too.’ It really hurt us then," they stated.
With the group's debut single "Venus" becoming a big hit, netizens have come to like the group. However, some remain critical, siting that they are too similar to A Pink. Hello Venus responded, "A Pink looks younger and more girlish. We have a different type of cuteness."
The girls also tried to set themselves apart from fellow Pledis Entertainment girl group After School. "Just because we’re sister groups doesn’t mean we’ll have the same concepts. After School’s powerful and sexy while we’re bright and cute. There’s also an added innocence factor," they said.
"Our group’s strength is our stable teamwork. We’ve been dorming together since October and have since been holding family gatherings once every week around candle light. This makes our trust in each other grow stronger than ever," the group concluded.
