The future "World's Greatest Co-ed Group" has finally become more Co-eddy again!

For the uninformed, G.E.E.K is the group that brought us the late Summer Anthem of 2017, "Sama Sama Summer".


I've been following them off and on for about a year, and they seem poised for greatness. Unfortunately, there's one thing holding them back: they're a Co-ed group with only 1 female member.

G.E.E.K formed in late 2016 with 4 Guys and 2 Girls. Not long afterwards, one of the girls, JJ (far left), graduated from the group.


Here's a sample from her brief time in the group:


In a mind boggling decision, instead of adding another girl to the group, they added another guy!


Since then, it's been tough going for the group. They just can't seem to get their big break. It's clear that diluting the female element has prevented G.E.E.K from achieving nationwide success. Well, after over a year of struggling at the bottom of the JPop Industry, a glimmer of hope has arrived. One of the male members, FU-TO, left the group at the beginning of April. He's been replaced with, you guessed it, a girl!


Meet Tei, the savior of G.E.E.K.


Now Honoka, the sole girl in the group, won't be lonely anymore.


Watching their recent live performances, this line up works so much better!



Now that the male to female ratio is more balanced, there's nothing stopping G.E.E.K from total JPop domination!
