Rookie group ARrC will be reorganizing into a 7-member lineup with the addition of new member Andy.

On the 31st, Mystic Story announced that Andy, who appeared in “JTBC ‘PROJECT 7’, has joined ARrC as a new member. ARrC will continue promotions as a seven-member group going forward,” they said.

They continued, “ARrC is currently preparing a follow-up album and are doing their best to greet fans with good music and performances soon,” adding, “Andy and the members of ARrC have built friendships while practicing together since before their debut, so please show a lot of interest in our next activities that will be based on their solid teamwork,” raising expectations for their comeback.

ARrC earned the nickname “diamond-shaped rookie” by proving their solid vocals, rap, and performance skills with high-quality stages since their debut in August of last year. In particular, they boasted a strong topic of conversation by surpassing 100 million cumulative SNS content views in just two weeks since their debut.

In addition to album promotions, they have also shown their versatility by launching their own web entertainment show, and ARrC has shown off their global popularity by being selected for the Rookie Male Idol Vietnam category of the ‘2025 Korea First Brand Awards’.

New member Andy has captured the hearts of viewers with his warm and affectionate side as he speaks three languages, including Korean, English, and Japanese, in ‘PROJECT 7’, helping the foreign members communicate. He boasts his human vitamin charm with his signature energetic appearance, but when the music starts, he dominates the stage with his facial expressions that change in an instant, showing off his unexpected charm.
