★1 line cut: 1st place on the first day of debut… This is the ‘dignity of a conglomerate idol’
They proved the ‘might of the chaebols’.The mixed group ALLDAY PROJECT, which includes Moon Do-yoon(stage name Annie, 24), the granddaughter of Shinsegae Group Chairman Lee Myung-hee and the eldest daughter of Shinsegae Group Chairman Chung Yoo-kyung, took over the music charts as soon as they debuted.

Allday Project is a five-member mixed group consisting of Annie, Tarzan, Bailey, Woochan, and Youngseo.They are the second team launched by The Black Label, led by former YG producer Teddy, and are gaining attention as a new group with both talent and popularity.

In a YouTube documentary released before her debut, Annie confessed, “I dreamed of becoming a singer since I was young, but my family was strongly against it.” In particular, her mother, Chairman Jeong Yu-gyeong, is said to have been adamantly opposed, saying, “Does that make sense? Absolutely No.”

However, Annie did not give up, and accepted the offer of “I will help you persuade your family if you get into college,” so she devoted herself to preparing for the entrance exam and was accepted to Columbia University in the United States, opening her path to becoming a singer.

Allday Project released their debut singles ‘FAMOUS’ and ‘WICKED’ on June 23rd at 6PM.They achieved results that were not expected of a rookie group, reaching number 10 on Melon’s ‘TOP 100’ chart within 5 hours of release.

As of the morning of the 24th, ‘Famous’ ranked 1st on the ‘HOT 100’ chart, and ‘Wicked’ ranked 8th.It is an uncommon record for a rookie mixed group to sweep the major charts immediately after their debut.

Of the two title tracks, ‘WICKED’ garnered attention for its experimental sound that mixes genres such as Brazilian funk, trap, R&B, and drill, and the performance video was released in the ‘MOVIE SET’ and ‘BASEMENT’ versions, drawing a hot response from fans.

The All Day Project is planning to begin full-scale activities through music broadcasts and content platforms in the future.Attention is focused on Annie’s challenge to see if she can go beyond the title of ‘Golden Spoon’ and become truly ‘FAMOUS’.
