Weeekly: Kpop's girl group, "shining" visuals without a single flaw

Weeekly is a rookie girl group that debuted on June 30, 2020 with their first mini album called We Are. As the first girl group that Play M Entertainment introduced to the public nearly 10 years after A Pink (debuted in 2011), Weeekly received a lot of attention and anticipation from the Kpop fan community. The group is expected to become one of the most popular rookies of 2020.

Weeekly was previously known as PlayM Girls and FAVE Girls. The group went through several lineup changes before their official debut. Original members Somin and Soyeon left the group in September 2018, Haelin left in July 2019, and Gaeun left in October 2019. The group eventually settled on 7 members and debuted in 2020.

Weeekly's official fandom name is "Daileee" which means that without "Daileee" (Daily), "Weeekly" cannot exist. The group's official colors are Orchid Bloom, Banana Cream and Beach Glass.

According to Mydaily, Weeekly shared about the group's future model: "We want to become a group that can show fresh and different charms every day. We want to show everyone our ability and liveliness and friendliness." On many forums, Weeekly is advertised as "a group with no visual flaws", the members all impress with their beauty.

Member Lee Soojin (born in 2001) participated in the survival show MIXNINE, was the center in the theme song Just Dance but then had to leave the competition due to a traffic accident. With a sweet and cute appearance, Soojin is also nicknamed "pink princess". The female idol is always loyal to the motto: "Let us enthusiastically try our best every moment".

Member Shin Jiyoon (born in 2002) also participated in the MIXNINE program and finished in 44th place. She is the lead vocalist, lead dancer and rapper in the group. In addition, the female idol is also talented in drawing and composing music.

Monday (born 2002) is the group's main vocalist. The female idol was given the nickname "superwoman" by the group members because she is good at sports and always maintains positive energy in all situations. Monday's motto in life is "nothing is impossible".

Park Soeun (2002) participated in MIXNINE, finishing in 55th place. She loves the color white and chooses the motto in life as "always be honest". Lee Jaehee was born in 2004, was a child actress with 7 years of experience in acting. She attracted attention when participating in film projects such as The Fatal Encounter, Detective K, TV series My Little Baby, Modern Farmer. The female idol was given the nickname "Lee Jelly" by her colleagues because her pronunciation is similar to Lee Jaehee. In addition, she also loves jelly food (Jelly is the name of a type of jelly).

Jihan was born in 2004 and was a former trainee of SM Entertainment. She can play the guitar and memorize dance moves easily. The female idol is nicknamed "Bunny" because of her pretty appearance with adorable dimples. Zoa was born in 2005. As the youngest member, Zoa has an impressive height compared to her seniors. Therefore, she is nicknamed "giant baby".

In February, member Shin Jiyoon had to suspend her activities again, just before Weeekly's most recent comeback with the single album "Play Game: AWAKE" after returning to activities together in December 2021. Four months later, on June 1, Jiyoon officially left the group due to health reasons. Accordingly, Weeekly will continue to promote as a 6-member lineup.

The group's management company, IST Entertainment, issued a statement to fans:

"Hello. This is IST Entertainment.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to all Daileees for the great love you have shown Weeekly. We bring you this sudden announcement with a heavy heart.

After experiencing symptoms of anxiety during promotions, Weeekly's Shin Jiyoon took a break from activities twice last summer and this spring to focus entirely on treatment and recovery.

With the artist's health as the top priority, Jiyoon herself, her family, medical professionals, and IST Entertainment have carefully discussed whether she is ready to resume her activities. However, we have decided that Jiyoon needs to be in an environment where she can fully focus on her mental health and continue to focus on treatment.

Therefore, as of June 1, 2022, Jiyoon will officially end her activities as a member of Weeekly. Weeekly will continue their journey as a six-member group.

We sincerely apologize for causing you concern, and we ask for your support so that Jiyoon can regain her bright and lovely energy. Above all, we hope you will continue to cheer on the six members who will work hard to fill the empty space of 'Wednesday'.

Many viewers agree that Weeekly is a potential group. However, others commented that calling the group "visually flaw-free" is quite forced and an over-the-top PR move by the management company. Just through a series of carefully edited introductory photos, it is difficult to determine the girls' true beauty. The audience needs to wait in the future to be able to more accurately assess Weeekly's appeal and ability.
