Weeekly
Weeekly (Korean: 위클리; RR: Wikeulli) is a South Korean girl group formed by IST Entertainment (formerly Play M Entertainment). The group was IST Entertainment's second girl group in ten years, after Apink. The group consists of six members: Soojin, Monday, Soeun, Jaehee, Jihan and Zoa. The group debuted on June 30, 2020, with their debut EP, We Are. Originally a septet, Jiyoon left the group on June 1, 2022, citing mental health issues.
The group's name, Weeekly, taken from the role of the member in charge of each day of the week as the catchphrase says that "every day brings a new and special week."
Soojin, Jiyoon and Soeun were contestants of YG Entertainment and JTBC's survival show Mix Nine, with Soojin being the "prominent face" among the female contestants during the initial stages of the show's launch. However, on January 8, 2018, Soojin withdrew from the show following injury from a traffic accident and had received emergency surgery.
In October 2018, Fave Entertainment had announced its plans to debut a new girl group, temporarily named Fave Girls (페이브 걸즈, stylized as FAVE GIRLS). The lineup included Soojin, Jiyoon, Monday, Soeun and Jaehee. The group was subsequently named PlayM Girls (플레이엠 걸즈) following the merger of Plan A Entertainment and Fave Entertainment, to form Play M Entertainment, on April 1, 2019.
On May 8, 2020, Play M Entertainment announced that PlayM Girls were confirmed to make their debut in June. On May 11, the group name was revealed to be Weeekly, with all seven members of the group and their profile pictures revealed. On June 12, the group's debut extended play We Are was announced to be released on June 30, together with a release schedule.
On June 30, the music video for the EP's lead single "Tag Me (@Me)" was released 18 hours before the release of the EP. Subsequently, We Are was released digitally, with Jiyoon involved in writing and composing two songs of the EP. The group had a press showcase on the same day. Originally, the group would also have a live debut showcase through V Live, but a fire that broke out near the venue of the showcase resulted in its cancelation. The music video for "Tag Me (@Me)" went on to achieve 10 million views in its first 7 days, while the EP sold over 10,000 copies within its first 8 days.
The group sang KakaoTV variety show Wannabe Ryan's signal song "Boom Chi Ki" (붐 치키). The single was digitally released on September 25. On September 28, the Korean Consumer Forum awarded Weeekly the "Female Rookie of the Year Award," using data from a poll of over 550,000 Koreans.
The group released their second EP We Can on October 13, featuring the lead single "Zig Zag". On October 15, they had their debut stage for the song on M Countdown. The choreography was distinct for its integration of 10-pound cubes into the dance, which the members pushed around the stage. The song achieved 10 million views on YouTube within 4 days, beating their previous record.
