New boy group Daily:Direction (DD, Jang Yoon-seok, Lim Ji-hwan, Kim Joo-hyung, Lee Won-woo, E-VAN (Ivan), EN KIM (An Kim) will debut today.
Daily: Directions held a debut showcase and commemorating the release of its first single album "FIRST: DELIVERY" (First: Delivery) at Yes24 Wonder Rock Hall in Sinchon-ro, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 23rd.
Daily: The direction team name means "everyday choices pile up and create their own direction." Rather than following a set answer, the team's core narrative is the story of creating their own path through trial and error and selection.
The agency ODDWAVE is a new creative production founded by creative director Park So-hee, CCO, who has participated in a number of major K-pop projects, including aespa, LESERAFIM, Stray Kids, and ZEROBASEONE, and showcases a new K-pop creative vision through its first debut group, Daily: Direction.
Daily: Direction's first single "FIRST: DELIVERY" (First: Delivery) contains a total of two songs: the title track "ROOMBADOOMBA" (Rumbadumba) and the track "SELF" (self). Both songs are written and composed by FRI:DAY (E-VAN) and SATUR:DAY (EN KIM), members of Daily: Directions, drawing attention.
The title song "Rumbadumba" is an Afrobeats genre track with dreamy energy superimposed on a rhythmic acoustic guitar. As soon as you stand at an intersection, you choose to leave your feet together rather than act like someone who knows the answer. He has the anxiety that he may get lost, and nevertheless has an attitude that he will not stop. "Rumbadumba" is a spell that means that we will not give in to any events and trials that will take place in the world view in the future. It will be used as a symbolic device that penetrates the team's narrative and message beyond simple slogans.
The track "Self" is a groovy R&B track and features a heavy synth base and sophisticated percussion. It follows the process of taking a step away from the standards of the world and accepting darkness and shaking as part of itself.
Leader Ann Kim said, "I'm happy that the six of us can debut together. We've prepared a lot to show you a great performance, so we ask for your warm attention."
When asked about the members' responsibilities, Jang Yoon-seok said, "I'm a sub-vocalist and the youngest member of the team," Lim Ji-hwan said, "I'm a rapper and a mood maker," and Kim Joo-hyung said, "I'll show you all the vocals, performances, and rap." Lee Won-woo then said, "I'm in charge of the killing part in the team," Ivan said, "I'm also a mood maker, I'm in charge of dancing and rapping," and Ankeem said, "I'm a leader and lead vocalist."
When asked about the title song 'Rumbadumba', Lim Ji-hwan said, "It's a clear start with our team colors. We put our energy and passion into it," he said.

It would be more fun if you enjoyed it together," he said. As a point of the song, Ankeem said, "Look at our harmony," and Ivan said, "I participated in the choreography for the title song this time." With the point choreography, Ivan said, "We saved a cool and hip mood, and we saved our team name 'D'."
When asked how she felt after performing her debut song "Rumbadumba" on the same day, Ann Kim said, "I think this debut showcase is not the completion of our dreams, but the beginning of our dreams."

Ivan and Ann Kim draw attention by participating in writing and composing their debut album. Ivan said, "I was able to participate with a good opportunity, and I'm grateful that I learned a lot," and Ankeem said, "I was grateful because it was my first opportunity to write lyrics."
