In a celebration of milestones and musical camaraderie, rising South Korean singer GYUBIN has released her latest single “Special,” featuring Kim Jong Wan of NELL. This song not only completes her collaboration project trilogy but also commemorates 100 days since the successful debut of her hit single “Really Like You.”
“Special” is a heartfelt track crafted with nervousness, excitement, and gratitude, as expressed by GYUBIN herself. Collaborating with Kim Jong Wan, a senior artist whom she deeply respects, added a special touch to the song. This release marks the culmination of her trilogy, following the previous successes of “Scribble” with Wonstein and “Start to Shine” with GAEKO of Dynamicduo.
The message embedded in “Special” resonates with listeners navigating through moments of loneliness and self-doubt. GYUBIN and Kim Jong Wan aim to remind everyone that they are special in their unique ways, regardless of external opinions. The song is a beacon of comfort and hope, especially during challenging times.
For GYUBIN, “Special” is not just a musical offering but also a token of appreciation to her dedicated fans who have supported her journey from the beginning. The timing of the release, coinciding with the 100th day since “Really Like You,” adds a layer of significance to this heartfelt gift to her fans.
“Really Like You,” GYUBIN’s debut single released in January 2024, has been a resounding success, garnering over eight million streams on Spotify and making waves on the Viral 50 Spotify Chart across multiple countries. This achievement reflects the rapid rise of GYUBIN as a ‘super rookie’ in the music industry.
As Kim Jong Wan aptly puts it, “Ultimately, ‘Special’ sings hope.” This sentiment encapsulates the essence of GYUBIN’s music—delivering messages of positivity, resilience, and self-acceptance to her growing fanbase.
