Lee Hi has caught American and Japanese fans’ attention

 

As of 5:30 p.m. on March 11, Lee Hi ranked ninth on American iTunes R&B – Soul Chart and at the same time, seventh on Japanese Charts. Lee has been professionally active for only a short time and has not yet been officially promoted, so this is exceptional because new singers rarely reach the top ten on American and Japanese album charts.
 On March 7, Lee released an EP titled First Love Part 1, which contains five songs: “It’s Over,” “Turn It Up,” “Special,” “Unrequited Love,” and “Dream.” “It’s Over” topped various Korean music charts as soon as it was released and still remains at the top of the charts.
 Although the genre of retro-soul has been unpopular in Korea, Lee managed to gain popularity with the digital single “1, 2, 3, 4” in that style. “It’s Over” has jazz and swing elements and has received great attention from domestic and foreign fans.
 Lee is going to release her first studio album, which will contain “Rose,” “Idiot,” “Because,” “I am odd,” and a new version of “1, 2, 3, 4″ on the 21th of March.
