UPDATE: In an urgent message to fans, Annie of ALLDAY PROJECT confirmed her university email address has been leaked, prompting an influx of messages from supporters. During a “Study With Me” live broadcast on January 24, Annie expressed her concerns over the privacy issue, emphasizing it complicates her ability to manage important school communications.
“Everyone, I have something to say,” Annie stated during the session. “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.”
Annie’s candid appeal highlights a growing concern among public figures about privacy and digital boundaries. She urged fans to communicate through the Dayoff app or other platforms instead, stating, “All the emails sent there are filled with kind words, and I appreciate them, but if you have something you want to say to me, please write it elsewhere.”
The emotional impact of her message resonated with her audience, as she acknowledged their good intentions while stressing the importance of maintaining her academic focus. “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,” she added, maintaining a friendly tone.
Annie, the granddaughter of the executive chairwoman of Shinsegae Group, is currently studying Art History and Visual Arts at Columbia University and has recently returned to campus after a leave of absence. As she embarks on the spring semester, which runs through May, the other members of ALLDAY PROJECT plan to engage in various individual activities to keep the group’s presence alive during her studies.
This incident raises significant questions about the digital footprints of public figures and the balance between fan interaction and personal privacy. Annie’s approach serves as a reminder for fans to respect boundaries while supporting their idols.
As ALLDAY PROJECT continues to navigate this situation, the focus remains on Annie’s academic journey and her commitment to connecting with fans in appropriate and constructive ways. Fans are encouraged to respect her request, ensuring that her focus on education remains undisturbed.
Stay tuned for further updates on Annie and ALLDAY PROJECT as they continue to evolve in this fast-paced environment.
