Background edit

Prior to the release of U;Nee Code, U;Nee had been active as an actress under the name Lee Hye-ryeon. Composer Jo Seong-jin, who she had known beforehand, suggested she work with him on an album, and although she initially refused, she accepted the offer after a year of "persuasion". After three years spent preparing for her singing debut, her debut performance took place on June 10, 2003.[1][2]

Composition edit

U;Nee Code is primarily a dance-pop album, with tracks focused on showing off U;Nee's "excellent dance skills".[3] The album's lead single is "Go", which was described as a "Miami rock-styled song".[4] The track was meant to be given to a boy band until U;Nee suggested she sing it.[2] Alongside "Go", the album features the hip-hop infused disco song "Disco Queen", the hip-hop styled ballad "Happy Together", and the pop ballad "To You".[3]
