From K-Pop Fangirl To Solo Artist, Jenny Lyric Shares Her Music Journey And How She Fell In Love With K-Pop | Exclusive Interview

@bydanieljae

There was a girl who fell in love with Wonder Girlsโ€™s โ€˜Nobodyโ€™ and started listening to K-Pop and singing in Korean. She started uploading K-Pop cover videos on her YouTube channel in 2015 and released her own Korean song '์–ด๋•Œ(Eottae)' as a duo in 2017.

And the following year, she released another song โ€˜CLOSERโ€™, which is the remake version of Young Turks Clubโ€™s old K-Pop song 'ํ›”์ณ๋ณด๊ธฐ' in English. When the MV was uploaded to the 1theK YouTube channel, she was thrilled that her music was on the same channel as her favorite K-Pop singers.

Jenny, who is a K-Pop fan and artist at the same time, shared stories about her music and how she fell in love with K-Pop.
