Lee Soo Man is showing his prowess again in Korea. His newest girl group, A2O Entertainment's A2O Lite , has dominated the local music charts with a perfect all-kill! Earlier this week, on October 26, 2026, Instiz iChart officially announced that A2O Lite's debut single, "NEON," achieved a perfect all-kill (PAK).
NEON is the fourth song released in 2026 to achieve this feat. A perfect all-kill on South Korean music charts means NEON's song is at #1 on all mainstream music charts, including Instiz's iChart weekly chart.
Monday (October 26, 2026) morning, NEON managed to occupy the top position on the Melon daily chart, Melon Top 100, Genie and Bugs daily and realtime charts, YouTube Music Top Songs chart, VIBE variant chart, and FLO realtime charts to iChart.
A2O Lite achieved this feat barely two weeks after their debut on October 13, 2026, making them not only a viral sensation but also one of the most respected rookie groups today. NEON was produced by SM Entertainment's maestro composer, Yoo Young Jin, a longtime partner of Lee Soo Man.
He collaborated with Dem Jointz, also one of the composers behind numerous SM artists' songs, including NCT127's Cherry Bomb and Kick It, and EXO's Obsession. This song has a beat and melody that could easily become an earworm.
It begins with the repeated lyrics "neon and beyond" (and continues until the end), with a slightly robotic effect. There's also a section of the song featuring the harmonies of the nine members of A2O Lite.
Yoo Young Jin and Dem Jointz didn't neglect the bridge, which is said to have disappeared from K-Pop songs that are currently under three minutes long. A2O Lite consists of Young, Vora, and Ayune from Korea; Himeki from Japan; Xili, Merci, and Aijing from China; Rada from Thailand; and Oa from America and Japan.
