             LUNARIX is a six-member fictional girl group that debuted on July 17, 2023 under ANGELICO Entertainment. Rookies thrown into the UNFORGIVING landscape of the entertainment industry, Lunarix stands out amongst the rest with their UNCONVENTIONAL and QUIRKY sound and concept.
Originally known as "ANGELGIRLZ" during their pre-debut phase, the group faced immediate scrutiny. Their debut announcement quickly followed the disbandment of Angelico's top-performing groups, VENUS and DeepDive. Accusations arose, claiming that ANGELGIRLZ copied Venus' "VENUS PROJECT" with their pre-debut project, "The Angel Project." Angelico chose not to address these allegations.
The negative reception toward ANGELGIRLZ intensified when their leader, Angel, was exposed as a school bully. The group's pre-debut single, "Chu~♡," received a poor response from the public. Following this setback, Angel was removed from ANGELGIRLZ, and her contract with Angelico was terminated.
On their debut date of July 17, 2023, Siyeon, a former DollsWorld member, joined the lineup, completing the current six-member configuration. Despite this addition, Lunarix still struggles to gain widespread public affection and often becomes the target of online hate trains.
Tumblr media
Siyeon, the leader of Lunarix, was born on May 13th, 1999 in Daegu, South Korea, to a bustling family of six siblings. Siyeon's path to stardom seemed destined from the start, as she was born under a Waning Crescent moon.
From a young age, Siyeon displayed a big personality and an undeniable need to be on stage, setting her apart from her siblings. Her innate charisma and talent caught the attention of many, earning her the title of the "survival show princess." Siyeon participated in numerous survival shows, consistently making it to the finale but never securing a spot in the final group. Despite this, she remained a beloved contestant among viewers.
SIYEON'S SURVIVAL SHOW RESUME !
KARA Project: RANK 3rd
PRODUCE 101: RANK 18th
IDOL SCHOOL: RANK 17th
MIXNINE: RANK 5th, failed to debut.
UNPRETTY RAPSTAR 2: Third runner-up
THE UNIT: RANK 12th
PRODUCE 48: RANK 14th

In 2019, Siyeon finally made her official debut with the group DOLLSWORLD under Stormedia. However, the group's journey was short-lived, with only two comebacks before silently disbanding as all the members terminated their contracts.
Undeterred by the challenges, Siyeon embarked on a new chapter in 2021 when she joined Angelico Entertainment. Alongside her commitment to training, Siyeon continued to participate in various survival shows, showcasing her resilience and determination.
Siyeon became Lunarix's new leader, main singer, and visual after Angel, the group's previous leader, was removed before their debut. Siyeon's strong singing and attractive appearance brought fresh energy to the group and contributed significantly to its identity.

She grew up in a home filled with music, as her father was a copywriter and her mother was a journalist and part-time singer. They provided a rich environment full of musical inspiration for Liala to grow up in.
Liala grew up in a musical family. Her mother sang beautifully, and her father played the guitar in his spare time. This upbringing instilled in her a deep love for music. As an only child for much of her life, Liala was often pampered by her parents. Because of this, her friends and family referred to her as "Princess."
During her school days, Liala's fascination with becoming an idol began after she and her friends watched a performance by 4minute on YouTube.
Liala was a natural leader who took charge as the head of her school's dance team. She loved performing and showed her skills and passion to everyone. One day, she caught the attention of Angelico Entertainment and they accepted her into their agency. Liala dedicated herself to training and her exceptional talents quickly set her apart from others. She left Thailand to train in South Korea and while she was away, her parents welcomed another baby girl into the world, making Liala a big sister.

Kim Taerin was born on August 12th, 2000, in Seoul, South Korea. She is a talented individual with a complex past that adds to her intrigue.
Taerin has always kept her childhood a private matter. While there isn't much information available, some internet detectives have uncovered some heartbreaking details. When she was 5 years old, Taerin lost her parents and older brother in a terrible house fire. She was then adopted by a couple in Seoul. She has openly stated that she prefers not to think about her childhood, and the people who raised her are no longer a part of her life.
Taerin struggled with her studies and social life, but found solace in music. At just 15 years old, she began producing music on SoundCloud, showing that she was talented at making beats and melodies. She adopted the name SEEU and started making music for lesser-known groups and Korean hip-hop artists. This helped her grow up fast as she navigated the producer scene.
Taerin faced challenges when she decided to pursue her craft independently at the age of 17. It's unclear how she caught the attention of Angelico Entertainment, but this was a turning point in her life. Under Angelico's guidance, Taerin worked on her image and kept most of her past hidden.
She'd debut in Lunarix as their main rapper, lead vocalist, and producer.

Jang Yoomi was born on October 10th, 2001 in New York City. She moved to Ulsan, South Korea when she was seven years old. Yoomi faced challenges during her move, including her shy personality and difficulty learning Korean since she had not spoken the language before. She was born during a Last Quarter moon and started her life in a fast-paced environment in the United States.
Yoomi and her siblings grew up in a family of successful business owners and CEOs. They went to the most prestigious private school in Korea. Despite being academically strong, Yoomi had a difficult time adjusting to the new environment. Her limited Korean skills and introverted personality made her a target for bullying and harassment. The situation reached a boiling point when she suffered a broken nose and cracked ribs from a particular incident.
Yoomi's parents decided to withdraw her from school due to the worsening situation. They wanted to ensure that their daughter was in a safer environment, so they used their connections to secure her a trainee position at Angelico Entertainment.

[ENGLISH LYRICS] Life's a Bi... - BIBI
Korean 나를 현혹시켜 넌 Baby 나를 취하게해 넌 Baby 내 정신을 흐리게 해 Baby 곁에 맴을 도는게 Baby
하마터면 또 넘어갈 뻔 했어 하마터면 또 네게 속을 뻔 했어 너 같은 애라면 목숨 걸 수 있어 라고 하며 나 또 네게 갈 뻔했어
야! 인생은 나를 놀래키려 하지만 Sex, money, murder 나를 중독시키지만 (야 야) 인생은 나를 휘두르려 하지만 Jump scare, jump scare 따위엔 안 당하지 난
'Cause I've been the rim of the world 'Cause I've been the rim of my life I've been six feet under But I've been nine feet upward, bitch
하마터면 또 네 거짓말에 홀려 빤스까지 머리 위에 쓸 뻔 했어 너 같은 애라면 믿어볼 수 있어 라고 하며 나 또 네게 갈 뻔했어
음! 인생은 나를 깜빡 속게 하지만 내 간을 엿 바꿔 먹으려 하지만 별거 아니라고 나를 타이르지만 네가 지나가고 나면 남아 껍질만
But I've been the rim of the world But I've been the rim of my life 'Cause I've been six feet under And I've been nine feet upward (bitch)
야! 인생은 나를 놀래키려 하지만 Sex, money, murder 나를 중독시키지만 (야 야) 인생은 나를 휘두르려 하지만 Jump scare, jump scare 따위엔 안 당하지 난
'Cause I've been the rim of the world 'Cause I've been the rim of my life I've been six feet under But I’m nine feet upward (bitch)
English You tempt me, baby You make me drunk, baby You cloud up my mind, baby I keep circling around you, baby
I almost fell for it again I almost got tricked by you again I could risk my life for a kid like you Is what I almost went to you again saying
Hey! Life tries to surprise me, but Sex, money, murder tries to make me addicted, but (Hey, hey) life tries to swing me around, but^1 Jump scare, jump scares and the like don’t affect me
'Cause I've been the rim of the world 'Cause I've been the rim of my life I've been six feet under But I've been nine feet upward, bitch^2
I was almost caught in your lie again To the point where I almost put my panties on my head I almost went to you again saying “I can trust a kid like you"
Yeah, life tricks me, but Tries to sell my liver for peanuts, but^3 Tries to convince me that it’s not a big deal, but After you pass by, only a shell remains
But I've been the rim of the world But I've been the rim of my life 'Cause I've been six feet under And I've been nine feet upward (bitch)
Hey! Life tries to surprise me, but Sex, money, murder, it tries to make me addicted, but (Hey, hey) life tries to swing me around, but^1 Jump scare, jump scares and the like don’t affect me
'Cause I've been the rim of the world 'Cause I've been the rim of my life I've been six feet under But I’m nine feet upward (bitch)
Notes:
"Six feet under" is a pretty common idiom meaning "dead and buried", but nine feet upward is harder to interpret. On Reddit, some people suggested that it was referring to the opposite of six feet under (6 flipped is a 9 – she’s been high and she’s been low), or perhaps to the ancient Chinese concept of jiutian (九天), wherein heaven has nine levels, with the 9th being the highest. Idk if either of those are correct, but Bibi references this in some other songs too.
엿 바꿔 먹다 means to “trade xyz for candy”. Kids apparently used to trade things with salespeople who would give them candy in return. So it means like. Selling something for less than it's worth. “엿먹어” is also a curse word that means “fuck you”/”eat shit” etc. etc. (famously said by Jimin to Cheetah in Unpretty Rapstar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmJcL9yeIGQ). The liver itself might (probably…) also have more meanings or connotations but I don’t know them….

💬 Heize's 10 Year Debut Anniversary Interview
Tumblr media
[YeSol Encyclopedia], the encyclopedia for female solo artists. The YeSol Encyclopedia contains stories of female solo singers from Korea making their mark on the world stage.
[StarNews | Reporter Ahn Yoon-ji] K-pop stars have traversed the globe, expanding the base of Korean popular music. Singers who initially targeted the domestic fans have gradually shifted their focus to the global market, aiming for the U.S. music charts, including Billboard. Indeed, numerous stars have climbed the Billboard 'Hot 100' chart, affirming the strength of K-pop stars. This situation has significantly contributed to the advancement of Korean music. K-pop, once confined to idol music, has branched out into hip hop, ballads, rock, and more experimental music, with artists breaking out of their molds to explore new challenges.
The most significant change has been among female solo artists. While female solo acts in the past might have centered their music around 'sexiness,' they now do not hesitate to showcase their vocal abilities alongside their performances. StarNews has decided to focus on these female solo artists. Now, in the year of the Blue Dragon, 2024, amidst the challenging music industry, we look into how these artists have managed to carve out their own paths and survive on their own.
The second artist featured in the "YeSol Encyclopedia" is rapper and singer Heize. Heize debuted in 2014 with the digital single "After I've Wandered A Bit" and was known for her hip-hop music. She gained recognition by participating in the Mnet hip-hop survival program "Unpretty Rapstar 2" in 2015, seemingly following the path of a female rapper, but in 2016, she released the digital single "Don't Come Back," showing a different image.
Since then, she has produced numerous hit title tracks, including "And July," "Star," "Don't Know You," "You, Clouds, Rain," "Jenga," "SHE'S FINE," "We don't talk together," "Late Autumn," "Lyricist," and "HAPPEN." Recently, she released "Stranger" with singer 10cm, showcasing her diverse musical spectrum.

In a recent written interview with StarNews, Heize shared her thoughts on her 10th debut anniversary and the journey she has taken as a solo artist. We aim to slowly unfold her discography.
- 2023 is coming to an end, and 2024 is approaching. As we welcome the New Year, could you please share a brief message?
▶ Hello, this is Heize. I'm truly grateful to be able to exchange New Year greetings with you all in 2024. You may be setting big or small new plans for this year, and I hope you find happiness in achieving them one by one. I'm rooting for you.
- You debuted in 2014, and this year marks your 10th anniversary. 2024 must feel special to you. Can you share your thoughts on reaching this milestone and, looking back on your activities, what moments stand out as particularly special?
▶ It’s really been exactly 10 years. Rather than just thinking, 'Wow, it's the 10th anniversary!', I was the type of person who lived day by day, but now that it's over, I only remember a few key scenes from the entire 10 years. Even then, detailed situations, words, and emotions became blurred. So now, apart from trying to achieve something, I think I should try to put my mind at ease every day.
When I first released a song called "Don't Come Back" after "Unpretty Rapstar 2," I think it was a very important and special moment for me. At that time, I was told that a hip-hop album should be released at this time to continue the Unpretty Rapstar image. I was too young to assert myself and didn't know much about anything, but I think I instinctively knew that the first song I released after the show would greatly affect my future direction. I don't know how long I could continue if I did something that wasn't me from the beginning, and it would have taken me a long time to come back with something that wasn't me. I'm still grateful for that choice because I think I was able to fully explore the music world I had starting with "Don't Come Back" in earnest.
Tumblr media
Reflecting on the past, her appearance on Mnet's "Unpretty Rapstar 2" in 2015, followed by activities with "Don't Come Back," "And July," and later "Star," "You, Clouds, Rain," "Don't Know You," etc., helped her gain recognition, continuing with a series of breakup songs. When asked about the most memorable and regrettable activities during her career:
▶It's still vivid to me that "You, Clouds, Rain" rose to No. 1 on the charts. It's amazing to think about it again, and I'm thankful for everything back then. I'm thankful for all the rain that rained a lot at that time, for singing about the rain that I love, and for people to understand how I felt. But it's sad to see that I didn't try to express my joy at the time. It's good to have a high ranking, but that's not all. I think it's because I was already worried about my next album. Whenever we won No. 1, I told myself not to get too excited thinking, "Let's not be too happy. Let's think of it as a miracle that happened to me." But now, I think I'm going to think, "Yeah, that miracle happened to me. Let's do our best to be happy at this moment." But I can't go back now, it's regretful.
- Personally, I feel like your music has broadened its spectrum over time, initially focusing on breakups as a major theme. Do you feel your musical direction is changing, and what direction are you pursuing now?
▶ When a lot of breakup songs were being released, it was a time when my world had completely collapsed due to a breakup and was being rebuilt. Everything felt strange, difficult, and different because of that breakup, so it seems like I ended up connecting everything to my own experience of parting. As I go through life, there are events that influence me at the moment, and naturally, my interests and the texture of my lyrics change accordingly. If I were to experience a breakup with someone I love, a deep breakup song might come out, but I'm also apprehensive about it. Regardless, I want to continue capturing the many things I see and experience in life in my own words.
- A challenge for me was definitely "Vingle Vingle," released last April. There are various opinions, but "Vingle Vingle" opened up a new genre in Heize's music. Personally, how do you feel about this song?
▶ Reading this question to myself, I just laughed out loud. Just hearing the title "Vingle Vingle" makes me laugh for many reasons. It's mostly because it feels a bit embarrassing and shy. Until "Vingle Vingle," rather than focusing on the feedback from people who liked my new releases, I was particularly mindful of comments saying 'it's always similar.' The "Vingle Vingle" demo I heard during that time was really a new world for me, interesting, and the guide was great. Even though it was the same theme of breakup, I was excited to present a breakup song that could be played in a lively space, a breakup song that could wake you up. It seems to have woken people up in a different way, haha~ I think if another artist who could digest it better had sung it, the song might have done much better, so there's a part of me that feels a bit regretful. But since there are people who like it, I think of it as having given them a good song. That's enough for me!
Tumblr media
- The EDM genre generally divides opinions, and it seems "Vingle Vingle" has received such responses as well. What are your thoughts on these opinions?
▶ It could be, or perhaps the musical direction people expect from me was clearer than I thought. I was moved reading the comments. The fact that people sincerely think about and write about Heize as an artist... I was surprised by how much they worried. Reading thousands of comments and heartfelt DMs made me think that I should continue to create and share what I can do in my own way, and I was able to focus entirely on putting myself into my eighth mini-album that came out afterward. I plan to keep challenging and changing, but not too drastically.
- I love your ballads, but I actually also enjoy your unique R&B and rap. Fans occasionally ask in comments for you to do R&B songs again. Do you plan to revisit this genre?
▶ I really love it too. However, the message I want to convey greatly influences the lyrics and melody, and recently, there haven't been many messages suitable for rap. Writing rap involves a different posture and expression. Lately, my messages have been too nice, it seems. Maybe I need to toughen up a bit. I'll definitely share it with you.
Tumblr media
- In the music industry, where female solo artists are relatively rare, your popularity and topicality feel especially welcome. Having gone through tough times and now actively performing, do you have any advice for juniors or others walking the same path, in light of your 10th debut anniversary?
▶ I think it's important to take an interest in how other artists continue their activities, how they create music, and how they perform on stage. Watching them work hard behind the scenes to complete a piece of work and carve out their own paths through that work, I think I always need to ponder what my own thing is and which direction my path lies. What I can do well, what I like, what should be next for me... There’s always no right answer, but the absence of a right answer makes it all the more necessary to understand myself. I'm still trying.
- Female solo artists used to focus on being 'sexy,' but it seems their spectrum has broadened significantly in recent years. Especially you, Heize, have been walking a path that doesn't shy away from various genres, including hip-hop, R&B, and ballads. What drives your activities and what do you consider the most important point?
▶ I think it's important to be true to myself. If I could fool people into thinking something not true to myself looks cool, people would immediately notice when I try to digest something that's not me. Just like with "Vingle Vingle"...
- The major Korean holiday, Lunar New Year, is approaching. How do you usually spend the Lunar New Year? What are your plans for this year?
▶ I spend time with my family or, if that's not possible, I spend time alone. This year, I think I'll have a meal with my brother, work on some projects, and so on.
- With the New Year here, do you have any wishes or goals for this year?
▶ As it's a new year and it's been 10 years since I chose this path and walked it on my own terms, I want to take this opportunity to look back slowly and see if there's anything I've forgotten. While doing so, as always, I don't want to forget my duty and want to continue doing what I need to do. I don't have any grand goals yet. In fact, I had resolved to post a photo on Instagram once a week starting in January, but I've already compromised with myself to once a month. Instagram is too hard, even in my 10th year of debut.
- As you mark your 10th debut anniversary, I'm curious about any special activities or plans you have for this year.
▶ I think I need to have a discussion with my company. Not just concerts, but I want to create opportunities to meet and communicate with fans up close. I sincerely thank everyone who has been by my side, making it not so scary or lonely even when the night comes on the path I've walked for 10 years, and for listening to my music. I sincerely hope you all will be even happier this year.
Heize, often nicknamed a "breakup specialist" due to her ability to articulate emotions, has always been focused on self-improvement. As someone who takes to heart feedback about being "always similar," she demonstrates a grounded approach, selectively incorporating necessary elements to present better music, rather than being swayed by opinions. Listening to her music in sequence reveals that Heize, initially focused solely on the theme of breakup, gradually layers emotions to construct a solid narrative.
Love and separation are the most common themes in ballads. Listeners have been exposed to various forms of love over countless hours. Yet, what makes Heize's portrayal of breakup special could be attributed to her transition from other genres, breaking conventional molds. The unrefined emotions, detailed circumstances, and sometimes blunt expressions in her music resonate with the audience. It's intriguing to ponder what lies ahead for Heize, who narrates every story as if it were her own. Whatever that may be, listeners are already prepared to embrace it.

[I'm LIVE] Heize (헤이즈) & And July https://youtu.be/gwzCovfkiZA Joining us on this week’s I’m LIVE is super-talented singer and rapper Heize! Heize engraved her name in the minds of the public in 2015 through a competition program focusing on female rappers called “Unpretty Rapstar Season 2.” To no one’s surprise, her song “Don’t Come Back,” released right after the show, topped all the music charts and came into the spotlight for her songwriting, singing, and rapping skills and also for her emotion-tugging lyrics. This artist recently released her second full-length album, “Undo,” to showcase her growth as an artist, which has been a great success this time again. In this episode, Heize performs “You, Clouds, Rain,” “Thief,” “And July,” “HAPPEN,” “Don’t Know You,” and her latest song “Undo.” Tune in to I’m LIVE and meet Heize! 손닿을 듯 가깝고 생생한 음악을 선물하는 도심 속 라이브 콘서트 [I'm Live]. 실력 있는 뮤지션들과 공연을 사랑하는 시청자들의 사랑을 한 몸에 받고 있는 [I'm Live] 269회의 주인공은 노래면 노래, 랩이면 랩. 장르를 넘나드는 이별장인 헤이즈이다. 대중에게 처음으로 헤이즈의 이름을 각인시킨 건 다름 아닌 여성 래퍼 오디션, [언프리티 랩스타2]에서 였다. 이후 발표한 ‘돌아오지마’가 음원차트 1위를 기록하며, 싱잉랩의 선두주자로 떠오르게 된다. 또한 장마 연급이라고 불리는 ‘비도 오고 그래서’와 가을에 사랑받는 노래 ‘떨어지는 낙엽까지도’ 등 언제 들어도 감성을 적시는 뮤지션으로 큰 사랑을 받고 있다. 최근 발표한 정규 2집 [Undo] 타이틀곡 ‘없었던 일로’는 발표하자마자 음원차트 상위권에 머무는 등 여전히 새로운 앨범과 노래가 기대되는 싱어송라이터로 대중의 기대를 한 몸에 받고 있다. 헤이즈는 [I'm Live] 무대에서 최근 발표한 신곡 ‘없었던 일로’를 비롯해 대표곡 ‘비도 오고 그래서‘, ‘헤픈 우연‘ 등 다양한 곡들을 선보일 예정이다. 헤이즈의 무대는 8월 11일 오후 1시 아리랑TV에서 감상할 수 있다. #헤이즈 #And_July #Heize 🎼 Meet Korea's Best Musicians : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC82dHUwrlcpa34I2PmyMYQA/videos 🎼 Mini Music Festival : https://www.youtube.com/c/liveonarirang I'm LIVE | 아임라이브
