Singer-songwriter Ahn Ye-eun has posted a comeback poster for her fourth EP, ‘Story Bag’.

The photo shows Ahn Ye-eun walking along the Cheongsachorong-gil Road, where you can feel the traditional beauty of Korea. The harmony of Ahn Ye-eun fluttering her gonryongpo hem in the space scattered with blue nature and smog late at night is mystical.

Ahn Ye-eun‘s new album will be her first in about 1 year and 9 months since the release of her regular album, ‘Easily Written Stories’, in February of last year. As Ahn Ye-eun has an outstanding strength in ‘storytelling through music’, the word ‘story’ is commonly included in both her regular album and this EP. Following the success of ‘Easy Written Story’, where she told her own story rather than imagination, attention is focused on what kind of story Ahn Ye-eun will tell through ‘Story Bag’.

Since her debut in 2016, Ahn Ye-eun has received much love from listeners in Korea and abroad for her uniquely colored songs such as ‘Changgwi’, ‘Hongyeon’, and ‘Octopus’s Dream’. Under the theme of a special feature to listen to with your ears, she not only presents horror songs every summer, but also sings OSTs for many dramas and webtoons such as ‘Rebel: Thief Who Stole the People’, ‘Yahwacheop’, ‘The Moon that Rises During the Day’, ‘The Man Who Became King’, ‘Return of the Volcano’, and has continued her unrivaled musical career. Ahn Ye-eun recently held her first solo concert ‘AHN YEEUN FIRST CON [花]’ in Osaka and Kawasaki, Japan, and shared deep musical bonds with local fans.

Ahn Ye-eun‘s new EP ‘Story Bag’ will be released on the 21st at 6PM through various music sites.
