YUHZ’s fan-organized streaming campaign for the group’s debut single album “Orange Record” ended at midnight on May 21, capping an 11-day push that began on May 7 and spread across X and other social platforms. Fan posts tied to the campaign used the hashtags #Orange_Record_Streaming and #RushRush to coordinate listening goals, reminders and end-of-event count updates, according to social posts reviewed Thursday. The campaign followed the May 7 release of YUHZ’s first single album and the music video for its title track, “Rush Rush.” ### Who is YUHZ, and what was being streamed? YUHZ is an eight-member rookie South Korean boy group formed through the survival program “B:MY BOYZ,” according to Soompi and other K-pop coverage published around the group’s debut. The group released its first single album, “Orange Record,” on May 7 at 6 p.m. KST, with “Rush Rush” as the title track. (kpopofficial.com) “Orange Record” includes three tracks — “Rush Rush,” “Supalove,” and “Rush Rush (Inst.)” — according to album listings and release pages published after the debut. YUHZ’s official YouTube channel shows the “Rush Rush” music video and follow-up content including dance practice clips, a cheering guide and an MV reaction video. ### What exactly ended on May 21? The May 21 deadline marked the end of a fan-run streaming event rather than the removal of the album from streaming services. (soompi.com) Social posts cited in the source briefing described the event as running from May 7 through May 21, with fans posting final stream counts as the clock reached midnight. The hashtags #Orange_Record_Streaming and #RushRush were the organizing labels attached to the effort, according to the social briefing and the cited X post referenced there. (kpopofficial.com) Those tags were used by fans to publicize schedules, encourage repeated plays and mark the close of the campaign. ### Why were fans running a streaming push? May 7 was YUHZ’s debut date, and fan streaming campaigns are a routine part of first-week and early-cycle promotion in K-pop, where supporters often try to lift song and video numbers during the initial release window. (kpopofficial.com) In this case, the campaign tracked directly with the launch of “Orange Record” and the title track “Rush Rush.” YUHZ’s debut arrived after weeks of teaser content, including concept photos, a scheduler, an album sampler and music video teasers, according to pre-release reports from Korean media. Those reports said Pinnacle Entertainment planned a full debut rollout ahead of the May 7 release. ### What do the release details show about the album itself? May 7 release coverage described “Orange Record” as YUHZ’s first single album and the group’s formal debut project. (kpopwise.com) Kpop Official and fan-maintained discography pages list physical versions including Orange, Record and Epilogue editions, while retailers show the same track lineup anchored by “Rush Rush.” YouTube metrics visible on YUHZ’s official channel showed the “Rush Rush” music video above 1.6 million views when indexed by search results this week. (sports.khan.co.kr) The same channel listed roughly 29,000 subscribers and several “Orange Record” follow-up uploads in the days after release. ### What comes after the streaming event? Sports Kyunghyang reported on May 7 that YUHZ planned its first fan meeting in Japan on May 16 under the title “Our Greeting,” as part of broader domestic and international activities. (kpopofficial.com) The album and its title track remain available on streaming platforms after the end of the fan campaign, and YUHZ’s official YouTube channel continues to host new “Rush Rush” performance content.
