Comprising XXIN, AYEON, YUAN, LILI, AYAKO and NICO, GENBLUE has now
become the first girl group from Taiwan to enter the South Korean physical album
market with this EP.
The EP album comes with four tracks ranging from catchy to soothing, namely ACT
LIKE THAT, OH!, SLOW DOWN and FEEL LIKE SPRING. Since its release, it has
been making rounds online, especially the music video of ACT LIKE THAT, which
features a one-take choreography and a showcase of their bold yet bubbly side.
Formed under Taiwan-based label TEN Entertainment, GENBLUE rose to prominence
on the reality show NEXT GIRLZ in 2023. Their name, a combination of “Generation”
and “Blue”, symbolises the vibrancy of a new era and the endless ocean.
After intensive training with top-tier instructors from JYP, YG, SM and HYBE,
GENBLUE made history as the first girl group from Taiwan to debut in Korea with their
single COCOCO in 2024, followed by a K-POP Rookie Award win at the Korean
Culture and Entertainment Awards.
The girls have been making their mark in Korea with music show performances, album
signing events, flash mobs, exclusive pop-up stores and photo booth collaborations.
To record the album, the Mandarin-speaking members dedicated themselves to
learning Korean. All of them have also been improving their English for better
interactions with international fans.
Leader XXIN shares, “This album is a reflection of GENBLUE’s essence, and we
dedicate it to our fans as a token of appreciation for their unwavering support!”
GENBLUE has hinted at the possibility of a special fan event, if the music video of
ACT LIKE THAT surpasses 30 million views. Fans in Malaysia have the opportunity
make it happen by hitting the play button.
GENBLUE ACT LIKE THAT mini album is now available for purchase on K-
MONSTAR.
