Introducing Gyubin, the talented soloist you need to know about

In the fast-paced world of K-Pop, music industry insiders and fans alike are always on the lookout for the next big star - and Gyubin, who is still yet to make her official debut, is ready and waiting for stardom. The hugely talented rookie is part of Liveworks Company, the same agency that manages the legendary group Shinhwa, so she’s in good hands. With her pre-debut collaboration project underway, Gyubin is already winning over the hearts of the music industry and fans with her incredible talent and youthful charisma.

Following two years of posting cover videos on YouTube, on 19th September Gyubin took a giant leap into the spotlight by releasing her pre-debut track, ‘Scribble’ feauturing the popular Korean rapper and singer Wonstein. The song is a mesmerising collaboration between Gyubin and Wonstein, who is an icon of the MZ generation in Korea (a term used in South Korea to describe Millennials and Gen Z collectively). Scribble is a charming, easy-listening pop ballad that kicks off with a vintage guitar performance, setting the stage for an emotional performance. Watch the music video below:

What truly makes this song stand out is its heartfelt lyrics. It's a song for anyone who's ever found themselves doodling while thinking about their special someone. The magical synergy between high school student Gyubin and the MZ generation icon Wonstein creates a fresh and youthful sensibility. It will certainly resonates with anyone who's ever experienced the whirlwind of unrequited love during their teenage years. The music video itself is a visual delight that captures the heartwarming connection between Gyubin, representing the teenage world, and Wonstein, the face of the MZ generation.

Gyubin's journey into the world of K-Pop doesn't stop with 'Scribble.' Before her official debut, she's mapped out a fantastic musical adventure. Upcoming collaborations include one with Gaeko of Dynamic Duo, hailed as 'Korea's Top hip-hop artist,' and Kim Jong-wan, the sensational vocalist of NELL, a K-Pop band with unparalleled sensibility.

What's more, Liveworks Company, Gyubin's home, manages Shinhwa – the longest-standing K-Pop idol group, legends from the 'first generation' of K-pop. With such a prestigious company backing her, Gyubin's journey is even more promising.

Wonstein)' and can't wait to see what the future holds for Gyubin. Keep your eyes peeled, K-Pop fans – Gyubin is here to stay, and we're in for a thrilling ride!
