Bluish Unplugged 1st Album

The first album by Korean singer-songwriter Kim Pureum, who attracts attention across Asia through appearances on "Youth Star" and "Asian Pop Festival," receives its first domestic CD release. Kim Pureum is a Korean singer-songwriter who gained many fans in Japan from the time of her debut through her appearance on the audition program "Youth Star," which was also broadcast in Japan. She later appeared at the Asian music event "Asian Pop Festival 2025" held in Korea and "Vagabond Festival" held in Taiwan, drawing major attention throughout Asia. Her activities extend beyond music, as she also participates as an actress in various visual works starting with the short film "The Nest" and the drama "The Fin," and she attends film festivals in Europe and the United States, showing her wide range of activities. This commemorative first album gained attention through crowdfunding and was pressed on vinyl in Korea with the remarkable figure of 280 percent achievement. It contains songs such as "Lost in the Midnight," featuring beautiful arrangements of acoustic guitar and strings with the theme of nighttime silence and loneliness, "Romeo&Juliet," popular among young listeners as a dance challenge with a lively rhythm and romantic lyrics, and the emotional ballad "How Long," told from the perspective of an abandoned pet and highlighted by expressive vocals. As she is gradually gaining attention not only in Korea and the Chinese-speaking regions but also in Japan, the decision for this domestic release brings great excitement.
