Yubin, former member of Wonder Girls, has officially made her solo debut!
On June 5th KST, Yubin released the music video for “Lady,” a city pop track that talks about a stereotypical cool, city woman who is telling her lover to start showing his true feelings or else she will leave him.
City pop is a genre of J-pop music and is also called “1980’s Driving Music,” a term that came about as car stereos became popular in Japan and songs were played loudly for others to hear. The genre generally talks about life in big cities and was a way to focus on the improvement of lives and society as cities became more developed.
The retro-inspired video fully takes on 1980’s Japan in a glorious splash of color and fashion that will have everyone reminiscing about the old days. Meanwhile, Yubin herself looks gorgeous in her vintage-inspired outfits.
“Lady” is the lead track for Yubin’s debut single album, City Woman.
