An Ye-eun has returned with the new song "NAMUGA," which takes listeners to the land of innocence at the moment they hear it.
On the 24th at 6 p.m., An Ye-eun's fifth mini album, "It may be my spring, but it could be your spring too," was released on various music sites. An Ye-eun, who made her comeback five months after the release of her fourth mini album, "The Story Bag," in November of last year, created a total of six songs, including the title track "NAMUGA."
The title track "NAMUGA" features a bouncy band sound that embodies the cheerfulness of spring, a season where new life emerges. The lyrics, characterized by An Ye-eun's playful yet whimsical style, begin with the imaginative idea that "if you eat the seed of fruit, the fruit will grow inside your belly."
Regarding this imagination, An Ye-eun noted, "This song was inspired by the saying from my childhood, 'if you eat the seed of fruit, a tree will grow inside you, so you shouldn't eat it.' In the end, what I'd like to convey is in the chorus. I hope that at least for the moment you listen to this song, you can let go of the compulsion to become something and feel relieved with the mindset that 'it'll work out somehow.'"
"Maybe each of us has an orchard inside us. It would be fun to explore together. / I swallowed gum yesterday morning; I wonder if a gum tree will grow. / I'll be eating bread tomorrow evening; I wonder if a bread tree will sprout. / Yah yah."
"Yeah, oh oh oh oh I will become NAMUGA. / Yeah, oh oh oh oh I will become a wonderful NAMUGA. / Yeah, oh oh oh oh what kind of NAMUGA will I be? / Yeah, oh oh oh oh I could be any NAMUGA."
Within the simple yet lively lyrics, An Ye-eun expresses her sentiment of being happy regardless of what kind of tree one becomes by proclaiming, "I could be any NAMUGA." As winter passes and the new season arrives, An Ye-eun's feelings about welcoming spring resonate with the listeners.
In the special video released alongside, An Ye-eun's vibrant and cheerful return with spring is visually striking. Her smile blends with the song, heightening anticipation for what kind of acclaim this album will receive.
Meanwhile, An Ye-eun's fifth mini album, "It may be my spring, but it could be your spring too," along with the title track "NAMUGA," can be listened to on various music streaming sites starting at 6 p.m. on the 24th.
