Girl group TUIDE (Seo-hee, Seo-yeon, Elena, Jia, Saki, Se-a, Lee Ha-neui) shone with global presence after receiving praise overseas for their debut album.

TUIDE surpassed 110,000 copies in first-week sales with their debut album [TUNE & PLAY], entering the 'top 10' of all-time girl group debut albums. The title track 'SUN KISS' music video and all tracks from the album climbed domestic and international charts simultaneously, showing that the album, music videos, and digital songs are being widely loved.

The 'SUN KISS' music video ranked first on YouTube's 'Daily Trending Music Videos' chart in South Korea as of August 27 and entered the top rankings in charts across 11 countries and regions. As of the 1st, all five tracks appeared on the charts for YouTube's 'Trending Music' in South Korea, Melon's 'Hot 100' (within 30 days of release), and Apple Music's 'Today's Top 100: South Korea' as of last month's 31st. Among them, 'SUN KISS' and the track 'GRLS' secured positions in the upper ranks of their respective charts.

Foreign media also covered TUIDE's debut album and title track. U.S. Stardust magazine stated, "Although guitar, percussion, strings, bass, and electronic textures are arranged differently for each song, the members' layered vocals serve as a common denominator that connects the entire album," and evaluated [TUNE & PLAY] as "a promising debut work with cohesion that remains focused despite various musical experiments." U.S. The FADER selected 'SUN KISS' as one of the songs you need to listen to this week (Songs You Need In Your Life This Week).

[TUNE & PLAY] is an album capturing the individuality and energy of its seven members: Seo-hee, Seo-yeon, Elena, Jia, Saki, Se-a, and Lee Ha-neui. The title track 'SUN KISS' incorporates their unique individuality that shines like sunlight with the keyword "Sun-kissed voice," conveying an attitude to listen to one's inner rhythm rather than following others' standards.
