Apink Drops First Teaser for 10th Debut Anniversary Special Song

On April 15, the girl group shared the first teaser image for their upcoming special digital single via their official social media accounts. In the picture, the names of Apink members are written: Park Chorong, Yoon Bomi, Jeong Eunji, Son Naeun, Kim Namjoo, and Oh Hayoung.

The teaser also reveals that Apink's special song for their 10th debut anniversary will be titled "Thank You." And from the looks of it, the track may have a cutesy concept and carries a message full of love for their fans, generally called Pink Panda.

"Thank You" will be Apink's first group release in a year since their mini-album "LOOK," which features the title track "Dumhdurum," in April last year.

This is not the first time that the girl group will launch something special for their debut anniversary. Last year, the sextet dropped a fan video of their B-side song "Moment," which member Chorong wrote for the fans, on their 9th year together.

Apink's Career in the Past 10 Years

Apink, who is currently composed of six members, initially debuted as a seven-piece group including former member Hong Yookyung. The female act's very first release is their debut extended play titled "Seven Springs of Apink," which includes the lead single "Mollayo" (I Don't Know).

In November of the same year, the seven-member girl group gained more fame after releasing their second EP, "Snow Pink." This album features the title track "My My," which became one of Apink's best songs. This song, in fact, earned the band their first-ever music show win.

In April 2013, member Yookyung left the group and the agency due to her educational schedule. Then in July, Apink launched their third EP, "Secret Garden," which features the title track "NoNoNo" that is another hit song of the group. In November, the six-piece band claimed the "Next Generation Global Star" award at MAMA.

Their fame didn't stop there. In January 2014, they issued their fourth EP, "Pink Blossom." The EP's title track "Mr. Chu" became another best song of Apink. No to mention, "Mr. Chu" is the eighth bestselling digital single in 2014, according to Gaon Chart.

Since then, Apink continued to have successful comebacks with their songs always entering various music charts including Gaon and Billboard, plus they constantly took home music show trophies.
