After ten years in the spotlight as the leader of K-pop powerhouse Red Velvet, Irene has finally stepped into the soloist arena. On Tuesday, November 26, she unveiled her much-anticipated debut single, Like a Flower, the title track of her first mini-album.
Irene’s solo debut has been a long time coming, and it’s everything fans hoped for. The music video for Like a Flowerhighlights Irene’s ethereal visuals and effortless charisma, blending vibrant colors and serene backdrops that complement the song’s groovy, lighthearted tone. Her versatile vocals shine throughout the track, accompanied by precise, fluid choreography that reflects her years of experience as a K-pop idol.
The three-minute song, co-written by a talented team including Barney Cox, Ejae, Lee Eun Wha, and others, captures a breezy, feel-good energy. It’s a perfect showcase for Irene’s duality as an artist—delicate yet powerful.
The album Like a Flower features a total of eight tracks, each adding a unique dimension to Irene’s musical identity. Fans have already taken a liking to songs such as the dreamy Summer Rain, the nostalgic Calling Me Back, and the sugary-sweet Strawberry Silhouette. Special tracks like Ka-Ching and I Feel Pretty offer playful, upbeat vibes that contrast beautifully with heartfelt ballads like Start Line and Winter Wish.
While Irene explores her individual artistry, she continues to thrive as a member of Red Velvet alongside Seulgi, Wendy, Joy, and Yeri. The group remains one of K-pop’s most influential acts, balancing solo projects with group activities.
With Like a Flower, Irene has cemented her place not just as an K-Pop idol but as a multifaceted artist. Her debut album and music video are now streaming on all major platforms, giving fans old and new a glimpse into her solo potential.
