History :~
Pre debut
Under the name Child of Empire, following their appearance on Mnet's Office Reality,[citation needed] the group gained attention by performing various guerilla shows[2][3] and creating UCC videos.[4] They have also appeared in a documentary-styled show 'Star Empire', and later getting their own documentary show titled 'Empire Kids Returns', showing them performing in wingcar performances around Seoul and training. The group faced controversy in December following the similarities of the group's name to Brown Eyed Girls's Jea. The group later changed the pronunciation of the name to avoid implications.[5]
