Adding an intriguing layer to this debut is the involvement of Ahn Sung Il PD of The Givers, who will be producing ‘Echo’. This name will undoubtedly ring a bell for those who followed the tumultuous journey of the former FIFTY FIFTY members.
As many will recall, 2023 saw Aran, Saena, and Sio embroiled in a legal battle with their former agency, ATTRAKT. The agency filed a substantial damages lawsuit against the members, their parents, and Ahn Sung Il of The Givers, alleging artist tampering and demanding a staggering 13 billion KRW in compensation. In response, the trio counter-sued ATTRAKT, claiming a failure to provide correct payments and demanding approximately 301 million KRW in unpaid earnings.
Interestingly, this debut comes at a time when their former group, FIFTY FIFTY, is also gearing up for a comeback. ATTRAKT‘s revamped FIFTY FIFTY is set to release their 3rd mini album, ‘Day & Night‘, on April 29th KST.
