Fun Facts About HeeJin’s New Songs!

HeeJin shares behind-the-scenes details about some of the songs on her new mini-album, K!

"Algorithm": I felt so much pressure at first, when I was told to produce my title song. So I went to my boss and asked him, “What is the relationship between love and algorithm[s]?” He told me that I made things too complicated and advised me to look at it in simpler terms. I was able to write lyrics with more ease after that.

"Addiction": I shared one “TMI” [story] regarding "Addiction" during my showcase stage. This song was inspired when I was having a late-night snack at 2 a.m. If you check out the lyrics, you'll see things like “2 in the morning” and “Coke.” Both are references to that situation. Also, this song was one of the title song candidates for tripleS. I liked this song so much, I asked them for permission to put it in my album.

"Video Game": This song was inspired by the movie Wreck-It Ralph. That movie came to my mind as soon as I heard the song. If there is a difference between the movie and the song, the movie is mostly for kids, and the song "Video Game" has lyrics that adults can enjoy as well!
