Adoy

Adoy (stylized as ADOY, ), is a South Korean band formed in 2017. The band debuted on May 17, 2017, with their EP Catnip and has since released three additional EPs and two studio albums. The band has received positive attention in the Korean indie scene, including multiple nominations at the Korean Music Awards and a win at the Seoul Music Awards.

History
In 2016, Juhwan Oh and Zee, then label mates on the Korean record label Fluxus Music, teamed up to form a synth based indie rock project. They soon recruited Dayoung Jeong and Geunchang Park to fully form the quartet. The name Adoy was inspired by Juhwan's cat, Yoda (named after the Star Wars character Yoda), whom the band spent time with during the production of their first release. The band name is simply Yoda spelled backwards. In 2017, Adoy released their first EP Catnip to positive response.

In 2018, the band released their second EP, Love, which included the minor hit song, "Wonder". Following this release, Adoy played their first shows abroad in Thailand, Singapore, Philippines, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Following the success of the EP, the band won the Special Judges Awards at the 2019 Seoul Music Awards.

In late 2019, Adoy released their first full-length release VIVID. The supporting tour across Asia was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but the group still performed numerous online shows over the next few years, including a live performance broadcast for LUCfest 2020. After their third EP, her, released in 2021, the band toured Asia and the US.

In 2023, Adoy released an EP titled us (sometimes called Remake or Remake EP), a collection of other musicians covering their favorite songs from Adoy. Later that same year, the band released their second album, PLEASURES.
