Korean Female Vocalists: Singers and Solo Artists Coloring K-POP (41–50)
All Night (PROD. Groovy Room, OREO) With. SIK-KSOYOU
Soyou was a member of the girl group SISTAR, which disbanded in 2017 to much regret.
In contrast to Hyolyn’s exotic, powerful, husky vocals, Soyou captivates with a pure, quintessential girl‑idol voice.
She has continued to thrive as a solo singer after the disbandment.
This is a hot track with a hint of romance that perfectly suits Latin-inspired tones, and the dance is sexy too!

ParadeYounha
Younha, who has also made her debut in Japan.
It’s said that she became interested in Japanese dramas when she was in elementary school, studied on her own, and learned Japanese.
However, because the drama she used to study was Gokusen, the first Japanese phrase she learned was “omaera” (you guys).
MONEYLiSA
Lisa, known as a member of BLACKPINK.
While BLACKPINK is a stylish group with hip-hop influences, Lisa’s solo work explores a more authentic hip-hop style.
Among her tracks, the one especially popular on TikTok is MONEY.
The song is primarily rap-based, but the chorus is sung melodically.
Its catchy chorus has led to widespread use as background music for dance videos in many countries.
I Gokei
Kei is especially good at singing among the members of Lovelyz, and she has a charming, girlish appeal that suits a pure, innocent idol.
Her singing voice is almost like that of an angel, isn’t it? “I Go” is a song where it feels like Kei shares her energy and cheer with us.
It’s the kind of song that can encourage you when you’re struggling or things aren’t going well.
Spring Song (feat. MIYEON ((G)I-DLE))LAS
The La’s are an indie rock band from Liverpool, England.
Formed in 1983, they released their debut single “Way Out” in October 1987.
Although praised by Morrissey, it did not achieve commercial success.
They broke through with the 1990 re-release of “There She Goes,” which reached No.
13 on the UK Singles Chart.
However, due to conflicts during the production of their debut album The La’s, they went on hiatus in 1992.
Although they have reunited briefly since then, they have not released any new songs.
Known for their melodic and distinctive sound, they had a major influence on the Liverpool music scene.
