Release of Rising Artist Hyelyn Joo's First LP [Re-Make]
An album that reinterprets her musical spectrum to date through band-set performances.
Singer-songwriter Hyelyn Joo has been recognized for both her musicality and potential as a newcomer, being nominated in two categories at the 2025 Korean Music Awards: [Best R&B & Soul Song] and [Rookie of the Year]. Her nominated EP [COOL] was enough to draw attention from the music scene with its sophisticated sound, unique lyrics, clean vocals, and fresh charm captured in the cover artwork.
The album [Re-Make] is a collection of previously released EPs and singles, newly arranged through collaborations with colleagues she has worked with consistently, capturing a different sensibility from the original tracks. The first track, ‘Corridor-style Apartment (501),’ gradually builds up the band-set sound, raising expectations for the album. ‘Am I Crazy,’ which captures the excitement of going to meet a lover, reinterprets a fast-tempo bossa nova with a cheerful swing feel, providing a breezy atmosphere. Seeking to be a ‘friend-like artist’ that people can comfortably think of in their daily lives, Hyelyn Joo fully portrays her musical direction in [Re-Make] alongside the voices of her colleagues.
The [Re-Make] LP is specifically recorded in a continuous sequence to capture the liveliness of a performance, and adds Instrumental and Voice Mail as Vinyl Only tracks to increase the collectible value of the LP.
