Interest in 'HYBE rookie' TUIDE (Seo-hee, Seo-yeon, Elena, Jia, Saki, Sea, Lee Ha-neui) is heating up.

According to HYBE music group label ABD on the 10th, TUIDE's official TikTok account surpassed 1 million followers on the 7th. This happened just six days after the first post was uploaded to the account.

Until then, not even the faces or profiles of all members had been properly revealed. This is a popularity metric built solely through music, stage performances, and word-of-mouth, without relying on content in the format of 'survival auditions' or programs like 'pre-debut reality.'

In fact, TUIDE's music and performances captured the attention of global fans. Clips from the video "Meet my GRLS, TUIDE," featuring performances of the mini 1st album "TUNE & PLAY" track "GRLS," are lined up at the top of TikTok's official channel views. On YouTube, this video also surpassed 4 million views just two days after its release. It ranked third among daily popular music videos on Korean YouTube and entered the trending music charts.

The choreography, which highlights individuality, received particularly positive reactions. The "GRLS" performance begins with solo lines that expand through units to group formations, with members trading parts as if introducing each other, showcasing not only their individual presence but also that of the team as a whole. This kind of 'self-introduction-style performance' left a fresh impression on music fans, marking TUIDE and its seven members for the first time.

The unique structure of the choreography also stands out. Centered around house dance, they blend various genres such as hip-hop and soul, incorporating rhythmic steps and gestures reminiscent of freestyle throughout. Members skillfully transition between movements from different genres, enhancing the flavor of the choreography.

TUIDE first revealed full-stage performances of all tracks from their debut album over two days on the 1st and 2nd. They will officially debut at 6 p.m. on the 24th.

Meanwhile, TUIDE member Seo-yeon is known to be the younger sister of TWICE's Jihyo.
