Jeon Somi held an online media showcase to introduce her first full album “XOXO” Friday.
“My heart is aflutter now that the music I’ve kept to myself is coming out in the world. I can’t wait for fans to listen to it,” she said.
It has been only three months since solo song “Dumb Dumb” was released, and the song’s popularity has only made her feel more confident.
“(It) was not a source of pressure. Rather, it gave me a boost in confidence,” said the performer.
“I’ve poured everything I can into this album and I’m content and relieved,” she said, adding that she is happy that she will be able to put on a more complete show with the LP that is weightier than her previous music.
Jeon acknowledged that she is beginning to learn what music really is, after being on her own for two years.
“What is certain is that now I know what I want in terms of music. What my voice goes well with, how I should use my voice,” she said.
