Name

Fandom

Fans of Bini are known as "Bloom(s)", commonly stylized as BL∞M(S) with the infinity symbol replacing the Os taking inspiration from the group's tagline "Walo hanggang dulo" (Eight until the end). The name serves as a reminder of Bini's story and journey, it stands for the beginning of springtime that there is always beauty after every cold trial. It was chosen by the Bini members among the name suggestions of fans during a special announcement livestream on February 13, 2021. [8] [9]

History

2018–2020: Formation through Star Hunt Academy

For many years, believing that "the Filipino talent has a place in the global stage," Laurenti Dyogi, ABS-CBN's Head of Entertainment Production, thought of forming a training camp where youth aspiring to become superstars "can develop or further hone their talents." [10] In 2018, ABS-CBN launched the Star Hunt Academy program, which had 250 auditionees between the ages of 16 and 19 years old from all over the Philippines. From this pool of auditionees, in addition to recommendations by talent scouts, the first set of female Star Hunt Academy trainees were selected, which was originally composed of 11 girls. While Dyogi initially planned to debut a nine-member idol girl group, the 11 girl trainees were eventually trimmed down to eight girls: Maraiah Queen "Aiah" Arceta, Nicolette "Colet" Vergara, Mary Loi "Maloi" Ricalde, Gweneth 'Gwen" Apuli, Stacey Aubrey Sevilleja, Mikhaela "Mikha" Lim, Sheena Mae Catacutan, and Jhoanna Robles. [11] [12] Of the eleven members, two—Sheena and Gwen—were originally housemates from Pinoy Big Brother: Otso . [13]

The group was trained from 2018 to 2020 under local coaches, including the professional vocal coach and former chair of the Department of Voice, Music Theater and Dance at the University of the Philippines College of Music, [14] Kitchy Molina, and Austrian-born dance coach Mickey Perz, as well as South Korean coaches from MU Doctor Academy.
