Oh My Girl (Korean: 오마이걸, also stylized in all caps, and as OH!MYGIRL & OMG) is an eight-member South Korean girl group formed by WM Entertainment. They debuted on April 21, 2015, with a self-titled mini-album.[1]

History

2015: Debut with Oh My Girl and Closer

Oh My Girl was publicized as the new sister group of label-mate group B1A4. In March 29, 2015, teaser images of the eight members were released as well as their concept images.[2] On April 20, the group released their first mini album, Oh My Girl, which included the single "Cupid". They held their debut showcase the same day.[3] They first performed the single on SBS MTV's The Show.[4]

On June 21, the group announced that they were currently preparing a new album.[5] Their second mini album, Closer, was released on October 7.[6] The single of the same name was promoted on music shows.

On December 11, Oh My Girl flew to LA for a photoshoot for their next album jacket and to perform at a special event, but could not get cleared by customs to enter the US. The group's management claimed that customs mistook the girls for underage prostitutes due to props and outfits for their special performance at an event on the Saturday of that week, and that they were detained for 15 hours.[7] However, an official with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection later stated that management was lying about the reason for being denied entry. Upon seeing the contents of the performers' luggage, customs officials determined the group was entering the U.S. to perform, not to go sightseeing as the group had claimed. As the group did not have the required P1 performance visa, they were denied entry. The customs official denied that the group was "detained" for 15 hours, noting that they were put on the first available flight back to Korea on the airline they traveled with.[8]

2016: Pink Ocean and Windy Day

Oh My Girl's third EP, Pink Ocean, was released on March 28, 2016 with double title tracks "Step by Step" and "Liar Liar".[9][10] On the same day, Oh My Girl announced their official fandom name, "Miracle", at their comeback showcase for Pink Ocean and also on the group's V-app. The group promoted "Liar Liar" and "Step by Step", a B-side written by B1A4's Jinyoung, on their comeback stages and at guerrilla concerts in Hongdae and Sinchon. In the beginning of May, the group promoted "Step by Step" for four days on the music programs M! Countdown, Inkigayo, Music Core and Music Bank.

On May 26, 2016, Pink Ocean was reissued as Windy Day with three new songs: "Windy Day", "Stupid in Love", and a Chinese version of "Liar Liar".
