Group TUIDE has placed all tracks from their debut album on domestic music charts.

According to their agency ABD on the 25th, all tracks from TUIDE's (Seo Hee, Seo Yeon, Elena, Jia, Saki, Se-a, Lee Ha-neui) mini 1st album 'TUNE & PLAY', released at 6 p.m. on the 24th, entered Melon's 'Hot 100' (within 30 days of release). As of 9 a.m. that day, the title track 'SUN KISS' ranked highest at No. 16, followed by 'GRLS' (No. 18), 'ABD' (No. 54), 'Echo' (No. 56), and 'Flip-Flop Girl' (No. 57).

It is encouraging that a newly debuted artist has managed to place all album tracks on the charts. This demonstrates that beyond focusing solely on a single title track, the overall quality of the album and TUIDE's unique musical identity have reached listeners evenly. Content that highlighted the essence of music and performance, such as the previously released highlight medley and performance videos for the included track 'GRLS', helped boost TUIDE's name recognition.

The so-called 'Soultronic' style, which combines the warm sensibility of soul with the sophistication of electronic music, has proven successful. Their debut album 'TUNE & PLAY' flexibly moves between various genres including R&B, house, and UK garage, expressing different musical textures through TUIDE's distinctive rhythm. The music, possessing both relaxed grooves and vibrant energy, vividly reveals the individuality and performance capabilities of all seven members.

Reactions to the music video for the title track 'SUN KISS' are also intense. The video, which depicts TUIDE's journey to find their own joy set against the backdrop of Iceland, climbed to No. 4 on China's QQ Music Music Video Chart immediately after its release.
