In a teaser of the music video for “Black Night” released on Sept. 30, Soyou shows a perfect transition from her original style of tender and mellow ballads to a powerful dance song.
Soyou debuted with the girl group Sistar in 2010. Dubbed “Tone Queen,” the singer is popular with fans for her vocal tone and delicate expression of emotions. She has built her music career with various collaborative works with artists.
