Kim Da-hyun Cheers On Sister Jin So-ri's Solo Debut: '7-Year Singer Releasing Album'
Jin So-ri, the elder sister of trot singer Kim Da-hyun and daughter of master Kim Bong-gon, is embarking on a new chapter as a solo trot artist with the release of her debut album 'Wha' (羽化). Her younger sister, Kim Da-hyun, took to Instagram on the evening of April 7th to share a heartfelt message of support.
Kim Da-hyun posted two photos along with her message, writing, "Fans! Our 7-year singer sister, Jin So-ri, who is pretty, kind, sings well, and dances well, will release her solo album 'Wha' tomorrow, April 8th, at 12 PM. We ask for your endless support and love." This heartfelt post highlights the special bond between the sisters.
The Jin So-ri and Kim Da-hyun sisters, daughters of master Kim Bong-gon, began their artistic journeys at the young age of four, immersing themselves in traditional Korean music (Gukak) and Confucian studies, building a strong foundation in etiquette and musicality. They gained early recognition as the 'Cheonghak-dong Gukak Sisters' before Kim Da-hyun's successful transition into a trot singer through shows like 'Miss Trot 2'. Jin So-ri had previously been active as a member of a fusion girl group.
Her debut album, 'Wha', features a total of 12 tracks, showcasing the significant effort Jin So-ri has invested in her new career. The title track, 'Everything's Flowing Smoothly' (술술 풀리네), blends an Arabian Nights-inspired arrangement with an upbeat rhythm. Jin So-ri's clear and emotive vocals, honed through her traditional Korean music background, shine through in this captivating song.
The catchy chorus, 'Suri Suri Masuri, Sabah,' makes 'Everything's Flowing Smoothly' an upbeat dance trot number. It aims to deliver joyful and positive energy, offering a message of hope that helps listeners unravel their troubles and difficulties. Pre-released videos of songs like 'Everything's Flowing Smoothly,' 'Bukjanggu Tale' (북장구타령), 'Flower Shoes' (꽃신), and 'Four-Leaf Clover' (네잎클로버) on social media have already garnered hundreds of thousands of views, building anticipation for Jin So-ri's trot career.
Jin So-ri is the eldest daughter of renowned Korean traditional music master Kim Bong-gon and the sister of trot singer Kim Da-hyun. She began her artistic training at age four in both traditional Korean music and Confucian studies. On April 8, 2024, she officially debuted as a trot singer with her first solo album, 'Wha' (羽化).
