Solo singer Younha became a platinum blonde for her upcoming single album “One Shot.” The album will be released on the 14th. She will have her first comeback stage tonight on Mcountdown.



Younha said, “I went for a transformation so I could leave a strong impression after a long absence. I know that to some people it seems like I’m weak because I fainted in the beginning of the year, so I wanted to change that image.”

After she fainted in January, her health condition became quite a serious issue. At one point, she weighed only 83 lbs (38kg). Younha had to rest for almost two months and cut back on her music program performances of “We Broke Up Today.”

She said about the whole experience, “I was watching music programs at the hospital and I cried. I had finally gained some recognition with good music. I was sorry to my manager. It was a hard time mentally for me.”

She added, “After my jacket photos were released, a lot of people commented ‘Is she going for this look?’ I thought to myself, ‘I didn’t do it for no reason.’ I want to show them that there’s more than what meets the eye. The music and the costumes are very experimental.”

She said, “It’s like how the ground dries up after the rain has come.
I’ve become closer with my staff. I have a feeling I can do well again. I think being sick did have some benefits.”

She finished off by saying, “I can’t force my music on people. I will work hard but it’s important to have people naturally listen to your music rather than force it on them.”
