エイコア / 에이코어
A.KOR put rap at the front at a time when most of their contemporaries were selling innocence.
Last updated:
Jiyoung, Minju and Kemy formed the core, with Daya and Taehee filling out a five-piece; a sub-unit under the name A.KOR Black also released How We Do.
Come here for a rough, rap-driven alternative to the polished girl groups of the same years.

Follow a few songs from the starting point to the group's current sound.

A.KOR debuted from Doo Republic in September 2014 as a girl group. Jiyoung, Minju and Kemy fired off the debut song Payday as a trio, then moved to But Go once Daya and Taehee had joined and the lineup stood at five. In a third generation full of innocent concepts, a formation that put rap at the front stood out.
Three songs are worth holding on to as doors: Payday, But Go and Always. Payday carries the momentum and the roughness of the debut, But Go confirms the cohesion and the density of the choreography once the group had five, and Always arrives at the calmer face of the later period. How We Do, from the unit A.KOR Black of Minju and Kemy, matters too, since it shows the rap of Kemy and the performance of the pair from an angle the main group does not give.
In 2016 Daya and Taehee left, and A.KOR shrank at last to three before closing a short run. The broadcast stages kept by SBS, MBC, KBS and ARIRANG remain visible today as the record of the live work built up in that short time. Payday, then But Go, then How We Do covers the shock of the debut, the spread of the five-strong lineup and the move into the unit.
Editors' take Payday / But Go / How We Do — a Doo Republic five-piece whose hard rap colour and shifting lineup come across in three songs.
