Girls’ Generation member and actress Lim Yoona has returned as a solo artist, releasing a new song for her fans.
Lim Yoona’s new single, “Wish to Wish,” along with its music video, was released on the 19th at 6 PM.
“Wish to Wish” is a medium-tempo pop song that reinterprets 1980s pop with an impressive upbeat orchestral arrangement. Lim Yoona’s smooth and calm voice perfectly complements the warm year-end atmosphere.
In 2019, Lim Yoona released the special album “A Walk to Remember” to celebrate her birthday. Similar to that release, this new song, her first in approximately six years, serves as a “thank you” to fans rather than an official “activity” as a singer.
This year, Lim Yoona has been highly active as an actress, receiving significant love from audiences. The song is her way of reciprocating the affection from viewers, moviegoers, and fans, and to bring a meaningful close to the year.
Lim Yoona personally penned the lyrics, which include phrases such as “You who shine countless times / You who have illuminated me,” “Even as time flows on / Forever / I will be by your side,” and “A song I want to sing to you / Remember, please / I just want to walk together.” These lines convey the special message of ‘shining together for a long time.’
Throughout the year, Lim Yoona has connected with audiences as both a film and drama actress, expanding her activities across various genres, including documentary narration and single releases.
Notably, Lim Yoona captivated audiences as French chef Yeon Ji-yeong in the tvN weekend drama “Tyrant’s Chef,” which concluded last September. Her immersive performance garnered significant popularity, with the series achieving the highest viewership ratings among mini-series aired this year and securing the top spot in the Netflix Global TOP10 TV (Non-English) category for two consecutive weeks, enjoying explosive reactions both domestically and internationally.
She is warmly reciprocating the immense love she received by releasing this self-written song for her fans. Lim Yoona is also set to debut the stage performance of “Wish to Wish” at the “Bon Appetit, Your Majesty YOONA DRAMA FANMEETING” (‘Tyrant’s Chef’ YoonA Drama Fanmeeting) on the 20th, building anticipation.
