Elisia Parmisano becomes the first contestant in Universe Ticket to secure a spot in a global girl group. Here’s what you need to know about the young Filipina singer

Slowly but surely, Filipino artists have been building up their respective careers in the global scene, especially in Seoul, Korea. You’ve got Liza Soberano in the Korean web series Hwaiting, Chanty in the Korean girl group Lapillus, Sophia Laforteza in the global girl group Katseye, and the South Korea-based Filipino boy group HORI7ON.

In a recently aired Korean reality competition called Universe Ticket, three young Filipinas displayed their talents to make it big, and one of them secured their spot in a Korean girl group that is set to debut this year. Before we go through the details of her debut, here are a few things you need to know about Elisia Parmisano.

She’s an ‘09 baby 

Yes, you heard that right. The young singer was born on April 18, 2009, and it’s pretty impressive how she was able to progress in her career at such a young age. You won’t have to worry about it too much though because in the world of K-Pop, trainees often start their lessons as young as 14, and Elisia managed to reach the cut.

She’s got that fiery passion 

For her zodiac sign, April 18 falls under Aries, who are known for their bold and charismatic energy. On top of that, her MBTI personality is INTP, making her intuitive and perceptive—this combination pretty much explains why she’s thriving in the survival show.

She’s a former child star

Although she’s focusing on her music, Elisia was already in the entertainment industry when she made an appearance at ABS-CBN’s 2019 drama series, Nang Ngumiti ang Langit. This explains why we are seeing various greetings from local celebrities like Regine Velasquez and Marian Rivera after the official announcement of her accomplishment.

She’s got the K-idol blood

Call it a coincidence, but did you know that Elisia is related to one of the members of HORI7ON? Their very own maknae, Marcus Cabais, is the young trainee’s cousin, who is also a 2009 baby.

She’s the first Prism member to be announced  

Elisia’s rise to the top is something to take note of since she won in a one-on-one performance battle against a fellow trainee, she placed 5th on the first Global Ticketing, and her constant advancement in both promotions of the show. And to make things sweeter, the young singer is the first official member of upcoming K-Pop girl group UNIS.
