Renowned former 3rd-generation K-Pop idol and current solo sensation, SAAY, is causing waves in the entertainment scene with her latest photoshoot for MAPS Korea.

The artist, who began her journey as a member of the 2012 girl group EvoL under Stardom Entertainment, has transitioned seamlessly into a solo career, captivating audiences with her musical prowess and, now, her alluring visuals.

A Brief History: From EvoL to Solo Stardom

SAAY's rise to fame started with EvoL, the first girl group under Stardom Entertainment. Despite a rocky history for the label, the group found moderate success with two mini-album releases.

However, fate took a turn when Stardom merged with Hunus Entertainment, leading to the termination of contracts for three EvoL members. Undeterred, SAAY ventured into a solo career, making her official debut in 2017 with "Circle."

Musical Prowess and Collaborations

Since her solo debut, SAAY has been a consistent force in the music industry, treating fans to hits like the 2023 digital single "Rollercoster" and the full album S:inema.

Not confined to her solo endeavors, she has contributed her talents to songs by K-Pop heavyweights such as EXO's Baekhyun, TWICE, and THE BOYZ.
