U-Chae

K-pop Idol

U-Chae debuted in 2021 with the hit single "Wings" with ALLART Entertainment under the name Dajeong as the youngest member of the K-Pop girl group, PIXY, who gained attention for their unconventional performances and unique concepts, and released many albums such as "Bravery," "Temptation," "Reborn," "Chosen Karma," and "The Voice." As PIXY, she performed all across the globe, including at the 2021 India Shillong Festival, and debuted in the United States at our very own Otakon 2022, the first K-Pop group at the con in ten years. Since then, she's been at Anime Weekend Atlanta, Korea spotlight@JAPAN 23, Kawaii Kon, ASIA Music Caravan in Tochigi, two European tours (Wanna Be Your Villain European Tour in 2022 and Last Night in the Dark City European Tour 2023) and a 22-city tour across the states (2023). She has also been on many music broadcasts, stages, and entertainment shows, and worked as an exclusive model for Top Ten Balance in Korea.

U-Chae will be joining Otakon 2024 as a special panelist with her old colleagues Youngbae and Jay Choe to give attendees an exclusive look and insights into the life of a K-Pop idol. She is thrilled to return to her first US performance venue and take her time exploring the con scene and Washington DC and share with us her plans going forward for the rest of 2024 and beyond.
