Annie, a member of the co-ed group ALLDAY PROJECT, has addressed fans regarding her university email address, which has been inadvertently leaked. During a “Study With Me” live broadcast on January 24, 2024, she revealed that the leak has resulted in an influx of messages from fans using her academic email.
While engaging with fans and completing her assignments, Annie explained the implications of this situation. She stated, “Honestly, I know it’s really easy to find my school ID. But if you send emails to my school email address, it becomes difficult for me to find emails from my professors or important messages sent by the school.” This message underscores her concern about managing her academic responsibilities alongside her public persona.
Annie urged fans to refrain from using her school email for communications. “All the emails sent there are full of kind words, and I appreciate them,” she noted. “But if you have something you want to say to me, please write it on Dayoff (the communication app) or anywhere else where I can read it.” She emphasized that messages sent to her academic email could obstruct her ability to access crucial school-related information.
In a lighthearted moment, she added, “Knowing my school email means knowing my school schedule too. If you see me at school and greet me, I’ll greet you back. But there may be times when I’m really not in good condition, so please understand in advance.”
Annie also encouraged fans to focus on their studies, humorously suggesting, “If you want to see me, just study hard to get into Columbia University.” She even offered to provide handwritten notes to any fan who enrolls at the prestigious institution, fostering a sense of connection and motivation among her followers.
The member of ALLDAY PROJECT is not only known for her musical talents but also for her academic pursuits. She is currently majoring in art history and visual arts at Columbia University and recently returned to campus after taking a leave of absence. Annie is the granddaughter of the executive chairwoman of Shinsegae Group, adding to her prominence in both the entertainment and business worlds.
As Annie attends classes during the spring semester, which runs through May, other members of ALLDAY PROJECT are engaging in various individual activities to minimize the group’s hiatus. The group remains active in the entertainment scene, and Annie’s recent candid communication with fans highlights her commitment to balancing her studies and career while maintaining a close relationship with her audience.
