Seori makes her long-awaited comeback with new single ‘Broken’
South Korean singer Seori has dropped a new single, ‘Broken’, alongside its accompanying music video.
The new track officially dropped today (January 31) at 6pm KST, along with an accompanying visualiser that depicted the singer performing the affecting single against a barren, snow-covered landscape.
‘Broken’ was first announced last week as a “pre-release single”, suggesting that Seori will follow the song up with a full body of work, however no other details have been disclosed by the singer nor her label as of writing.
“Something’s broken inside of me / Although you did nothing to me / I’ve got hurt so hard by / Look at you and me on the screen / No one can set me free,” the 27-year-old vocalist laments on the chorus of the new single.
The release of ‘Broken’ officially marks Seori’s first music under Label Sayu, which she signed with in October 2023. News of her move came three months after she left long-time label Warner Music Korea’s ATISPAUS.
Her releases in 2023 comprised OSTs for K-dramas like Doona!, Tell Me That You Love Me and Song of The Bandits. Her last comeback was her March 2022 English-language digital single ‘Can’t Stop This Party’.
Prior to making her debut, Seori released several covers on YouTube, where she gained a small following. She made her official debut in 2020 with her first mini-album ‘?Depacse Ohw’, and worked with boyband Tomorrow X Together on their single ‘0x1=Lovesong (I Know I Love You)’ the following year.
She later released several digital singles, including ‘Lovers in the Night’, ‘The Long Night’ featuring rapper Giriboy, ‘Dive With You’ with former Day6 singer eaJ and ‘Warriors’ with 88rising’s Warren Hue for the soundtrack of Shang-chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
