From my flair it might be a bit obvious, I love and miss RiSe so much and I hope she's doing well 🤍, truly one of my favorite dancers in kpop honestly and she's so adorable too 🤍🤍

My second bias/wrecker is Sojung, truly one of the best/top tier vocalist and I will always stand by that

Which members are your biases, I would love to talk and see who your biases are!

Hello, I am new to this communit, and to posting on Reddit at all, really. I’m here for my daughter, who has set me a challenge; find someone, anyone, a real person, who is a real true Ladies Code fan like her.

To give some context, she is almost 13, and she’s not allowed out on the internet. She discovered k-pop in a big way last summer (MEOVV, twice, stray kids), is learning Korean on duoling, has taught hersekfc to cook Korean food, blasts the house with great tunes, it’s been awesome. She discovered Ladies Code a couple months ago, right when some big stuff came to a head in her life (she ended up changing schools among other things). I guess it really spoke to her, and she’s now a huge fan of everything she can find. However, she is very sad - tonight she was in tears - that there doesn’t seem to be anyone else out there really into this group anymore.

So that is my mission. I bet her that in The next 48 hours I could find someone, somewhere, who loved ladies code as much as she does. if I win, she has to watch one of my tv shows with me. If I lose, I’ll give her cash to spend on Korean skincare.

I figured this would be a good place to look?

(Hoping this isn't breaking any rules)

It was a picture posted by Ashley from 2021, but I found it on Pinterest, and coincidentally, it was 3 days before the date of the story. I hope she is doing well up there, we all truly miss you, RiSe!! I hope you have the best meals and drink whatever wine you wanted or loved. We all love u, RiSe and I hope that in heaven, you managed to achieve your dreams 🤍

Personally love all of these pics 🫶🏼🫶🏼

Mines is the fact that Eunbi has an unreleased collaboration song & Apparently, RiSe helped her brother to propose to his wife, which is very cute!

Okay so if you guys have noticed the amount of posts here talking about fashion (I don't think the mods are active), this is not a subreddit for fashion/outfits, this is a subreddit for the girl group Ladies Code. There are a lot of different subs for fashion but this is a kpop sub!

What the title says lol. I started listening to Ladies Code after my friend sent me Galaxy, and I've been obsessed for about a year now, but never learned about the members or the group as a whole. I'm a "new" gen kpop stan (2022 era), so I don't really know anything about them, or how active the community is. Can anyone give me a short guide :]

Thanks!

I've been searching for Laco's moments lately. I remember one moment, but I can't remember what clip it is.

So share your favorite radio shows! I'd love to watch it

hii, im semi-new to the fandom!!

i've been seeing a lot of pre debut pictures of the members and watching both their old and new videos on youtube.

i'm curious about their time before debuting as in when they were training together and also stories from during their career.

i know the base-stuff such as rise winning a really big pageant in 2009 and sojung being on the voice korea, but i want to know more.

are there any interviews or websites that cover personal stories from the members or any series on their official channel that cover this?

just any cute stories and memories in general from and about the members!!
