A musical group that is formed through a reality TV show, typically one that’s also revolved around music. The group is destined to disband at some point throughout their run, whether through contract or through problems within the group. The term usually refers to the four groups formed from M-Net’s South Korean survival show Produce 101, IOI, Wanna One, Iz*One, and X1. However, can also refer to any other group that shares a similar fate.
Fifth Harmony was formed through The X Factor and eventually disbanded, which could technically put them as a Produce group.

A musical group that is formed by a reality show or survival show, typically by one that’s of musical descent, that disbands at a point in time either by contract or a situation inside of the group. The term usually refers to the four groups formed by M-Net’s South Korean Survival show Produce 101, IOI, Wanna One, Iz*One, and X1. However, can apply to other groups across the world if they fit the requirements.
Although formed by a different show, KEP1ER is still a Produce group as they only have a 2.5 year contract before they’re forced to disband.
