Chungha held a press conference to speak about her upcoming 2nd album Bare&Rare Pt.1.
On July 11, the artist spoke with members of the press in the Hannam district of Yongsan, Seoul.
The artist spoke on how this album is different from her past efforts.
I have never spoken about my personal life in my music. Fans have been waiting for a personal album, and this is it.
— Chungha
Chungha stated how it felt making a much more personal album than her past albums.
Before, the lyrics were written for me, and the performances were choreographed for me, but this time I felt naked.
— Chungha
The artist stated the reasons for naming her album Bare&Rare Pt.1.
I felt like I’d thrown off my bulletproof vest. I realized I’ve only shown my glamorous side, with sparkly makeup and dressed-up. This time I wanted to take it all off, so I named it ‘Bare’. In Part 2, I added a song that I thought I would never get to do. Therefore, I added ‘Rare’.
— Chungha
Anticipation for the singer’s latest efforts is high. The track will feature its title track, “Sparkling,” along with eight other tracks. Check out the MV for the song in the link below!
