The group ARrC captivated domestic and international fans with a band live that elicits the exclamation 'WoW.'
ARrC (Andy, Choi Han, Doha, Hyunmin, Jibin, Kkien, Rioto) recently posted an OFFSET STAGE LIVE video of the track "WoW (Way of Winning) (with Moon Su-a X Siyun)" from their single 2, CTRL+ALT+SKIID (Control+Alt+Skid), on their official YouTube channel.
The released video features not only ARrC but also Billlie members Moon Su-a and Siyun joining them for a band live. They exchange glances to harmonize or ride the rhythm, amplifying their warm charm. In particular, this live session was recorded as a one-take performance completed in a single take by the artists and the band, showcasing spontaneous interplay and vivid energy, highlighting the intent to directly convey the value of live music ARrC pursues.
"WoW (Way of Winning) (with Moon Su-a X Siyun)" carries the message that even in the endlessly repeating moments of youth, you can start again together, and in this OFFSET STAGE LIVE it was reinterpreted from a UK garage-based pop-house dance track into Acid Jazz and soul-funk sounds, adding the density and vitality unique to live performance.
In addition, the skilled soul-jazz team from all to human participated as session musicians, expanding the music's narrative through a tight drum-and-bass-centered groove and improvisational keyboard and guitar play, while Moon Su-a and Siyun's vocals and rapping harmonized with ARrC's vocal direction to complete the original track's energy more three-dimensionally. Through this, ARrC amplified the track's emotional line and message in a new form of band live, presenting a stage that broadened their musical spectrum.
Global music fans who watched the video also reacted enthusiastically. Fans poured praise such as "The seven members' different voices, Moon Su-a's head voice and Siyun's low tones blend to offer a unique charm," "perfect chemistry," "I don't think I can go back to before I heard 'WoW'," "the visual harmony is also perfect," and "completely in favor of this combination."
ARrC made a surprise comeback by releasing single 2, CTRL+ALT+SKIID, on the 3rd. CTRL+ALT+SKIID is a single that captures the recovery of youth and a cheerful rebellious spirit, and ARrC declares a reboot rather than deletion, delivering realistic empathy and messages of support to Generation Z.
This single contains two tracks in total: the title track "SKIID" and the included track "WoW (Way of Winning) (with Moon Su-a X Siyun)." Both songs entered major domestic music sites' real-time charts such as Bugs and Vibe immediately after release and also appeared on Vietnam and Taiwan iTunes K-pop top song charts, proving their global upward momentum.
