Today (January 7 2025) is ZE:A's 15th debut anniversary. I wanted to use this opportunity to talk about them briefly and to share a song of theirs that I have enjoyed.

Personally, I would consider ZE:A as a group whose music has been largely overlooked, despite some members going on to find individual success in fields outside of music — namely, Im Siwan, Park Hyungsik, Kim Dongjun and Kwanghee. At the time, ZE:A did release music which was produced by other popular and in-demand producers, such as Brave Brothers, but amidst the stiff competition they struggled to stand out, and I would say it was years until after their disbandment did some listeners realise or, in some cases, rediscover that they in fact had music.

Anyway, Dongjun, who was one of the members of the group, was kind to release ZE:A's music videos to his YouTube channel, although the songs have also been, and were originally, posted by other YouTube channels. I wanted to share "All Day Long", which was the group's first comeback after the group made their debut with "Mazeltov", and it was produced by Brave Brothers.







I like how there are two music videos for the song; the first being a short, "original" version, and the other clip presented as a longer "story" — and I enjoyed watching both clips.

There are also two versions of the song that are released, with one specifically being labelled as the "original" version. The main difference, really, is of the words used; that is, in the chorus they changed "damn it" (빌어먹을) to "all day long" (하루종일).
