hey! me and my friends were wondering about a kpop friend group but we forgot the name to it or the rest of the members. they were all ‘91 liners and the only ones we could list from the group were goo hara, key and minho (i think) do you know the name or at least the rest of their names? also give some context if you know it!
hello!
ahhh yes, the 91 line! that's the unofficial name of them, and the only name they were ever really known by tbh. they were most prevalent from around 2010 to 2014.
i've talked about them a few times over the years, so check out my tag for them here.
but, to summarise, they were a friendship group that consisted of idols that were born in 1991, and key was their leader. and that's just not me saying that, he actually called himself the leader lmao.
like i said, pretty much any idol that was born in 1991 was a member, but the core group was kibum, woohyun (infinite), jaejin (ftisland), nicole (kara), dogwoon (beast) and soyou (sistar) whose birthday was feb 1992, but was considered an honourary 91er. they were the closest, and the ones that hung out together the most consistently.
other people like mir (mblaq), jinwoon (2am), hara (kara), nana (after school), seohyun (snsd) and min (miss a) were also part of the group, but weren't spotted hanging out as often as the core group.
minho was also in the group, of course, but kibum rarely let him hang out with them or at least, rarely let him appear in the group pics 💀
there were countless selfies and social media updates, and they were like the it kids of idols at that time. big events were so fun because chances were the 91 liners would all be spotted hanging out.
they stopped being as visible on social media around 2014, and there are rumours as to why that could be.......
but thats an entirely different rabbit hole!
so yeah, that's 91 line. it was such a fun time in kpop tbh, it was the first time an idol friendship was so visible and obviously clique-y. they were the popular kids, and they flaunted it. and kibum takes all the credit for it djhdjsjsnsns.
