HYBE's New Girl Group TUIDE to Perform Debut Album Before Official Debut

HYBE Music Group's new girl group TUIDE will introduce its debut album to fans before officially making its debut, unveiling every track through a special preview event next month.

According to HYBE label ABD on July 21, TUIDE will hold "TUIDE EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW [PLAYGROUND]" on August 1 and 2 at Layer Studio 11 in Seoul.

During the event, the seven-member group which consists of; Seohee, Seoyeon, Elena, Jia, Saki, Sea, and Lee Hanee, will perform every song from its upcoming debut album. The showcase comes before the group's official debut date has been announced, marking an unconventional introduction in which fans will experience the music and performances before the members' full debut promotions begin.

Because the event will feature unreleased music, photography, video recording, audio recording and livestreaming will not be permitted. Instead, attendees will be able to participate in interactive programs designed to introduce the group's concept and artistic identity.

ABD described "[PLAYGROUND]" as an opportunity for fans to be among the first to discover TUIDE, adding that it hopes audiences will support the beginning of the group's journey. To participate in the event, fans can apply to attend through Weverse, with applications open through July 26. Participants will be selected by lottery.

TUIDE is the first girl group launched under HYBE Music Group's new label ABD. The group's name is derived from the phrase "Tune the tide," reflecting its goal of creating new experiences by navigating and shaping the changing currents of the world.
