Their debut full-length album Love was released in 2019, propelling them to household name status in South Korea as they played to a 2,000 strong sold-out show at the prestigious Yes 24 Live venue. In 2021, ADOY released their new EP Her which spun the singles Baby and Simply, with the latter attracting more than two million views on YouTube in less than a month.
