The MZ mixed group 'All Day Project' expressed heartfelt respect for the national mixed group Koyote, bringing warmth.
On the broadcast of MBC's entertainment program 'Omniscient Interfering View' on the 26th, a special feature on mixed groups was conducted, bringing together the debuting rookie group 'All Day Project' and the 26-year veteran group 'Koyote' in one place. In that broadcast, the backgrounds of All Day Project member Annie and Tarzan were also revealed, capturing the viewers' attention.
Annie, the granddaughter of the chairman of Shinsegae and a talented individual from an Ivy League school, was introduced as a versatile member, while Tarzan had a career of winning domestic competitions and also worked as a fashion model.
Upon meeting them for the first time, Koyote's Shinji looked at her juniors with unusually warm eyes. Shinji said, 'We are the team that has been consistent without retirement or halting activities,' and asked, 'Do you know us?' To this, Annie, born in 2002, responded, 'I lived in Korea until elementary school, so I naturally knew Koyote. I regard you as my direct seniors in the mixed group,' and sincerely greeted them, while Tarzan also expressed respect by singing Koyote's hit songs on the spot.
This broadcast was also significant for Shinji. It was her first appearance on a broadcast showing her recent situation after the controversial comments made by her 7-year younger fiancé, Moonwon. Previously, in a video of their meeting uploaded to Shinji's YouTube channel, Moonwon had said, 'I didn't know Shinji was such a famous person,' which received backlash from the public.
This statement was interpreted as an oversight of Shinji's presence as a 26-year veteran singer and sparked controversy. Subsequently, Moonwon officially apologized, saying, 'I regret my careless remarks. I failed to consider the feelings of fans who love Shinji.'
'All Day Project, which was born in 2002, had responses like 'Even the 37-year-old singer Moonwon didn't know the famous Koyote.'
Meanwhile, towards the end of the broadcast, the atmosphere became lively with discussions about the strengths and weaknesses unique to mixed groups. Song Eun asked, 'What are the strengths and weaknesses of mixed groups?' Baekga responded, 'A strength is that Shinji organizes things well, and a weakness is...' while glancing at Shinji, which elicited laughter. Tarzan also empathized, saying, 'As soon as I spoke, I looked at Annie,' and Annie, with a flustered expression, looked at him, causing even more laughter on set.
