[[File:AOA 14.jpg|thumb|250px|right|AOA promoting ''[[Danbal Meori]]'' (2014)]]
The eight members were introduced individually through teaser photos from July 16 to 23 (in order: Seolhyun, Choa, Hyejeong, Chanmi, Yuna, Mina, Jimin , & Youkyoung). AOA was revealed to be a dance group, with some members also playing instruments. Explaining the concept of their debut FNC revealed that seven members are "full angels": Seolhyunari(Seolhyun), Choaya (Choa), Hyejeong.Linus (Hyejeong), Chanmi T.T(Chanmi), Yunaria (Yuna), Minaring (Mina), and leader Jiminel (Jimin). Youkyoung (or "Y") is listed as a "half-angel/half-mortal", because she is only a member of the band half, playing the drums, resulting in AOA saying they are a "7+1" group. "Angel's Story" leaked on July 28, two days before the official release. The music video for the title track "Elvis" was released on July 30. AOA had their debut stage on August 9 on M!
