In this series we remember songs that have been forgotten or were never even given the attention they deserved. Today's Hidden Gem is Rolly by Good Day
This group had a very promising start. Fans loved how upbeat and cheerful everything was. A group of 10 girls was also pretty uncommon for the time and growing in popularity, so people liked the large size of the group and how creative they got with the choreo and formations. It also had Bae Jin Young of Wanna One in the video. Lots of rookie girl groups from around that era were trying to milk Wanna One's success by inserting them as the token "guy" in the video (just like boy groups did with I.O.I).
Although they had a promising start, things didn't end up well for Good Day. 6 of the 10 members immediately competed on The Unit; they were actually the first contestants to be shown. All of them passed their audition and 4 members gained attention on the show (Lucky, Jiwon, Sunn, and Heejin). Genie and Chaesol got eliminated after round one. Jiwon made it all the way to the finale and it actually seemed likely that she'd debut, but she barely missed it. You'd think C9, who had money, would have a plan for Good Day after they were successful on the compeition and had a promising debut. Sadly that was not the case. The team ended up disbanding without ever making a comeback. Half of the members stayed in the company and re-debuted in their new girl group Cignature, who is still active. Sunn and Ye Ah have since departed from Cignature, almost re-debuting for a third time together in ALDL, but have mostly moved on from performance. The other 5 members were set to debut in Red Square, but Heejin pulled out last minute and was replaced (and by last minute I mean they literally filmed the music video with her and had to cut out her scenes). Red Square was also very unlucky and never got to make a comeback. Three of those members (Genie, Cherry, and Nayoon) re-debuted together for a third time in the group Irris who is still active but hasn't released music in a year. Bomin was supposed to debut in ALDL with Sunn and Ye Ah, but like I said above that got cancelled. Heejin has released solo content and also writes music. She collaborated with Dowoon of DAY6 for his solo debut. Her most recent comeback was like one month ago. She also got married recently. Very confusing with all these updates. Splitting up and re-debuting, cancelled debuts, member departures, and they all keep changing their stagename everytime they debut. 7/10 members seem to still be active in the music industry.
