YG Entertainment introduced the latest and second member of its upcoming girl band on its official Facebook and Twitter accounts on Tuesday, June 7.

In line with its theme to introduce one member a week in the month of June, YG released the images of Lisa Manoban. "NEW GIRL GROUP -  MEMBER #2," the agency posted together with some stylish chic photos of the new member.

Just like Jennie Kim, the first girl introduced last week, one of the photos released for Manoban shows the star dolled up as a school girl. For this reason, fans are speculating that this has something to do with the band's debut.

Manoban appears to be a new face in the Korean entertainment industry. There is little known about her aside from the fact that Manoban is famous for her dancing skills, and she used to be part of a dance crew.

The 19-year-old new member is a native of Thailand and is fluent in several languages such as Korean, Thai, Japanese, and English. Manoban joined YG Entertainment in 2011 after she managed to secure the top spot during the company's audition in Thailand six years ago.

She appeared in Taeyang's Ringa Linga music video, a fan blog on Tumblr revealed. She has also modeled under YG Entertainment's fashion brand NONAGON/NONA9ON.

Meanwhile, the first member, Kim is known for her rapping skills. She previously appeared with G-Dragon and is most likely to take the rapping role in the new all-female team, which is set to make its debut next month.
