Born in 2006, solo artist Pagaehun is making a comeback with a fresh and exciting love song.
Pagaehun is set to release his new digital single 'Hi+Fiv3' today (11th) at 6 PM on various online music platforms.
'Hi+Fiv3' captures the essence of the 1990s and 2000s, reimagined through the lens of the Gen-Z generation, showcasing Pagaehun's musical growth as he turns 20. The single includes the title track 'Hi+Fiv3' and another song titled 'Just for a Moment'.
The title track 'Hi+Fiv3' is inspired by Pagaehun's college campus love story. It blends early 2000s K-pop vibes with Pagaehun's unique style, offering a mix of retro and kitsch elements.
The track 'Just for a Moment' features a 1990s R&B sound, with singer-songwriter 90idle contributing to its composition, enhancing its quality. Pagaehun's soothing vocals combined with an analog feel leave a lasting impression.
Pagaehun, known as the original artist of 'Play With Me', which gained fame through the 'Do Re Mi Challenge', is achieving global popularity. 'Play With Me' notably topped the Spotify Indonesia Viral50 chart and the iTunes Ireland K-POP chart.
Having released his first mini-album 'Exam' and held his first fan concert and fan meet-up in Indonesia, Pagaehun is solidifying his position as a solo artist. As he embraces the spring of his 20s, anticipation builds for the charming confession he is about to deliver.
Pagaehun's new digital single 'Hi+Fiv3' will be available on various online music platforms at 6 PM on the 11th.
