ARrC Hits 'The Show Choice' Nomination Amidst Comeback with 'SKIID', Shattering Personal Sales Records
Rookie boy group ARrC has achieved a remarkable feat, becoming a nominee for the music show's top spot simultaneously with their comeback.
On the SBS funE program 'The Show,' aired on the 11th, ARrC delivered captivating performances of their second single album's title track 'SKIID' and the B-side 'WoW (Way of Winning) (with Moon Sua X Si Yoon)'.
The stage kicked off with 'WoW (Way of Winning) (with Moon Sua X Si Yoon),' a collaboration with Moon Sua and Si Yoon from fellow agency Mystic Story's group Billlie. The song, carrying a message of resilience stating 'Even in moments like an Anti-Climax without a finish line, we can start again if we're together,' maximized the dreamlike synergy between the two groups, blending sophisticated sounds with three-dimensional energy. Their raw and vivid energy shone through, complemented by dynamic formations, including choreography that formed a 'W,' and cheerful expressions that delighted the audience.
Following this, ARrC showcased their title track 'SKIID,' impressing with powerful yet graceful dance lines. Notably, the 'time-slip kick dance,' featuring slow leg movements as if time had stopped, humorously interpreted youthful defiance and left a deep impression. Over a unique soundscape, ARrC's delicate control of tempo and dynamics further solidified their distinctive musical identity for global fans.
Simultaneously with their comeback, ARrC's nomination for 'The Show Choice' highlights their significant growth. Their latest single album 'CTRL+ALT+SKIID' has broken their personal first-week sales records, nearly doubling the sales compared to their previous mini-album 'HOPE,' marking a career-high trajectory. Furthermore, 'SKIID' has secured top positions on the iTunes K-POP Top Song charts in Vietnam and Taiwan, underscoring their rising global popularity. ARrC also demonstrated their enhanced influence by appearing as guests on Vietnam's national broadcaster VTV3's major audition survival program 'Show It All.'
Meanwhile, the second single album 'CTRL+ALT+SKIID' captures the emotions of youth stalled like an 'Error' within the loop of exams, competition, and failure. It expresses the recovery and playful defiance of youth through ARrC's trendy musical language.
Netizens are reacting enthusiastically to ARrC's impressive growth, with comments like "This comeback is truly amazing! Let's win first place!", "The performance for the B-side 'WoW' was insane, the chemistry with Moon Sua and Si Yoon is the best," and "Listening to ARrC's music gives me strength! Congratulations on the comeback!"
