SNZ (group)

SNZ48 is a Chinese idol group based in Shanghai, China. It is one of the sister groups of the Japanese idol group AKB48. Officially launched in 2012, SNZ48 follows the AKB48 system of having multiple teams that perform regularly, host handshake events, and release music.

The group's name, SNZ48, combines "ShangHai" (representing their base city) with "48," a number commonly used in the AKB48 franchise. Like its sister groups, SNZ48 emphasizes the idols' growth and development through performance and interaction with fans.

SNZ48 has undergone restructuring since its initial establishment. In 2016, SNH48 (the parent group of SNZ48 at the time) declared independence from AKB48, and SNZ48’s official relationship with AKB48 also changed. While details regarding the group's activities and lineup may evolve over time, SNZ48 continues to contribute to the Chinese idol scene. Information regarding current activities and official team rosters is best obtained from official sources.
