Artist JUNNY has been recognized for his potential with a new song he collaborated with Pink Sweat$.

JUNNY released the digital single ‘Lonely Lover (Prod. Pink Sweat$)’ on the 7th of last month, produced by Pink Sweat$ and Vedo.

‘Lonely Lover’ is a sensual pop song where JUNNY‘s attractive tone and sensibility shine. FORBES, a global economic magazine, recently drew attention by selecting ‘Lonely Lover’ as one of the ‘9 collaborations that will expand the global influence of K-POP released in January 2025’ on its official homepage.

FORBES said of ‘Lonely Lover’, “It is a song that lets you feel the unique softness of Pink Sweatshirts” and “It proves how smoothly K-R&B artist JUNNY can blend in with the global music industry. “We are looking forward to the future path of JUNNY, who is building a reputation as Korea’s best pop and R&B singer-songwriter,” they said.

JUNNY has been receiving attention from influential overseas media outlets for his unrivaled musicality, having previously been selected as a ‘genius K-POP album’ by The Source, one of the top three hip-hop magazines in the US, for ‘INVITATION’. Furthermore, as if to prove this, various famous songs by JUNNY, including ‘INVITATION’, have garnered attention and become a hot topic on short-form platforms such as TikTok.

JUNNY is a producer who has collaborated with leading K-POP artists such as IU, EXO, NCT, and JAY B, and is currently gaining word of mouth as a talented singer-songwriter who is active in the hip-hop, R&B, and soul genres. Last year, they released the EP album ‘dopamine’ and received favorable reviews, and they also showed off their live powerhouse side through various overseas tours.

Recently, they released a new global collaboration song ‘Lonely Lover’ and the Kakao Webtoon ‘Secret Site’ OST ‘How Can I’, showing off their unique tone and sensibility.
