On July 13, the YouTube channel “Psick Univ” released a new episode titled “Annie, Tarzzan and Bailey from ALLDAY PROJECT Ask How to Go Viral”. The rising idol trio delighted viewers with their candid and humorous conversation.
Ivy League Brains Behind the Idol
Annie revealed she was accepted into Columbia University, one of the prestigious Ivy League schools in the U.S. She shared that her college acceptance helped convince her parents to support her idol dreams.
When asked by host Kim Min-soo about her SAT score, Annie stunned everyone by revealing she scored 1530 out of 1600.
Mimicking a Chairwoman: “That’s… Amazing”
The laughter peaked when the hosts asked how her parents reacted to her acceptance. “I went to my mom and said, ‘Mom, I got in!’” Annie recalled, mimicking her mother’s composed tone, “‘Oh, really? That’s… amazing.’”
Her imitation of Chairwoman Chung Yoo-kyung’s elegant and stoic delivery had the studio in stitches. Although she also showcased a Doraemon impression, host Kim Min-soo jokingly declared, “Honestly, your mom impression was way funnier. You should use that on variety shows.” Annie responded shyly at first but smiled and promised, “I’ll… develop it further.”
A Star from a Chaebol Family
ALLDAY PROJECT officially debuted on June 23 with their single “FAMOUS“. They instantly shot to the top of Melon’s TOP100 chart, and their performance video for the second title track “WICKED” soared to No.1 on YouTube’s trending videos.
However, Annie is proving she’s more than just her family name. From elite academic credentials to lively banter and on-stage charisma, she’s carving her own path as a new-gen K-pop star.
