An Yujin has been in charge of the 'Gayo Daejeon' four times in total since her first appointment as the MC in 2022, including the 'Gayo Daejeon' in 2023, the 'Gayo Daejeon' in 2024, and the 'Gayo Daejeon Summer' held in 2024. With a stable performance and a sense of humor, she has established herself as the face of the 'Gayo Daejeon' and has been invited as the MC for four consecutive years, leading her fifth 'Gayo Daejeon' this year.

An Yujin, who serves as the leader of IVE, has demonstrated outstanding capabilities in singing, dancing, and entertainment, establishing herself as a representative 'hexagonal idol' of K-pop. She has not only sung for the webtoon 'The Great' and the movie 'Wish' but also for the drama 'Resident Playbook' OST, and further proved her musical talents by being credited as the sole lyricist for the track 'Heroine' in IVE's first full-length album.
Known as the 'entertainment cheat key of conviction,' An Yujin is also active in entertainment shows. In the recently concluded 'Bbang Bbang Jigu Ogsal 3', she brought laughter to the living room with her dedicated attitude and irreplaceable 'bright-eyed lunatic' character, showcasing a ripple effect that spans all generations. In addition, she has displayed her diverse charms across various broadcasts and content and received the honor of winning in the female entertainment idol sector at the '2025 Brand Customer Loyalty Awards'.
Moreover, An Yujin recently captured attention once again on the stage of 'Lollapalooza Paris' by calmly handling unexpected sound issues. With her composed response and witty remarks, she garnered even more enthusiastic applause, successfully concluding the performance and showcasing her professional side. Expectations are high for what kind of activities An Yujin will perform at this year's 'Gayo Daejeon' as she continues to demonstrate her strong presence across stages and broadcasts.
