Group debuted under a label Beat Interactive. A.C.E (에이스) consists of five members – Donghun, Jason, Jun, Chan and Wow, which have all had quite the history in the industry. Jun and Donghun have participated in “I Can See Your Voice 4”, Jason took part in “K-pop Star 2” and Donghun competed in “Superstar K5”. Also boys been spotted in several of 1 Million Dance Studio videos.
Group name A.C.E stands for Adventure Calling Emotions. And the seemingly unusual concept of “Cactus” as a song title represents the hardships guys went through in their lives. They are trying to say, that they are not easily breakable, because they’re like a cactus and ask to see more than just thorns, as behind it hinds their soft side.
What is really noticeable and original about A.C.E’s song Cactus is that they used music elements from the genre called “Hardstyle” and even implemented the so called “Jumpstyle” dance moves in their choreography, known widely among ravers. Hardstyle is an electronic dance genre mixing influences from hard techno and hardcore. This is definitely not something you would get to see in K-Pop music videos every day or at all.
