AOA (an acronym for Ace of Angels (Korean: 에이오에이) is a South Korean idol girl group and band, produced by FNC Entertainment.
The group is constructed of a band with 5 members (Jimin, Choa, Yuna,
Youkyoung and Mina), and an idol group consisting of 7 members (all
members excluding Youkyoung). The group debuted on July 30, 2012 with
their single album Angel's Story.
History
2012: Debut: Angel's Story & Wannabe
The eight members were introduced individually through eight
different teaser photos released from July 16, 2012 to July 23, 2012 (in
order: Seolhyun, Choa, Hyejeong, Chanmi, Yuna, Mina, JiMin &
Youkyoung (Y)).
AOA was revealed to be a dance group, with some members also playing
instruments. Youkyoung (or "Y") is listed as a "half-angel/half-mortal",
because she is only a member of the band half, playing the drums,
resulting in AOA saying they are a "7+1" group. Explaining the concept
of their debut FNC revealed that the seven "full angel" members
(Seolhyun, Choa, Hyejeong, Chanmi, Yuna, Mina, and leader Jimi) looked
on the human world through their crystal ball, and fell in love with the
music of humanity. Youkyoung, the "half-angel, half-mortal", also
referred to as the key keeper, became curious about the human world and
used the key to visit it with the other angels. The first music video teaser for "Angel's Story" was released on July 24, 2012 and the second teaser was released on July 26, 2012. "Angel's Story" was leaked on July 28, 2012 with 2 days before the official release.
The music video for the title track "ELVIS" was released on July 30th,
2012. AOA had their first debut stage on 9th August on M!Countdown
following by Music Bank on the 10th August.
FNC confirmed that the group will be making a comeback with their 2nd
Single album "Wannabe" to be released on October 11th. The album cover
was released along with the announcement, depicting the 8 members as
different fictional characters.
Hyejeong, Jimin, Choa, Yuna, Chanmi, Mina, Seolhyun and Youkyoung
dressed as characters from of Kill Bill, Leon, Legally Blonde, Tomb
Raider, Harry Potter, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Romeo and Juliet, and The
Fifth Element characters respectively.
