The record was ranked by several publications as one of the best albums of 2020, and it was nominated for Best Pop Album at the 18th Korean Music Awards.

Background

edit

On January 5, 2012, Yukika announced that she would be retiring as a voice actress in Japan in order to attend university.[3] She returned to the industry in August 2015, appearing in several commercials and stage plays.[4] The following year, Yukika successfully auditioned for The Idolmaster KR, a South Korean drama adaptation of the original game series.[5] Real Girls Project, a Korean idol group was formed for the drama.[6][7] Along with other members of Real Girls Project, Yukika was a contestant on the reality survival show Mix Nine in 2017.[8] She was eliminated in the tenth episode, ranking 34th.[4][8]

Following the disbandment of Real Girls Project, Yukika attracted the attention of Park Jin-bae (ESTi), the founder of Estimate Entertainment.[9] They connected over their shared appreciation for the city pop genre and decided to work together; Yukika signed onto his record label in late 2018.[9]

Music and influences

edit

Musically, Soul Lady is primarily influenced by R&B and city pop, a genre of Japanese pop music that was popularized in the 1980s.[10][11][12] The record also features bubblegum pop, electropop, house and lo-fi styles, with elements of disco and funk.[11][12][13][14] Yukika cited the music of Mariya Takeuchi, Tomoko Aran and Kim Hyun-chul as the stylistic references for the album's sound.[15] Critics have also drawn musical comparisons to Japanese R&B music of the 1990s, namely the early works of Utada Hikaru, Namie Amuro, Miki Matsubara and Taeko Onuki.[11][14] Despite city pop's common association with "retro style", Yukika was adamant that Soul Lady had to remain sonically "modern".[16] In summation of her intention behind the record, she stated: "City pop may be considered something timeless or retro, [but] I don’t consider it ‘old music’ like others would. When I sing, I don't think of myself as singing ‘older music’. When I sing, I think of myself as singing current music."[17]

Thematically, Soul Lady centers on the story of a young woman who travels from Tokyo to Seoul in search of her dreams and falls into a bittersweet romance in the process.[2][13][18] The title of the album's introductory track, "From HND to GMP" (read as "From Haneda to Gimpo"),[18] is in reference to the flight between Haneda Airport and Gimpo International Airport.[11][18] The album draws parallels to Yukika's personal life as she adjusted to living in South Korea, and it has been described as largely autobiographical.[11][17][19] Tanu I. Raj of NME noted the analogous nature of the album: "On Soul Lady, Yukika was a starry-eyed girl “full of curiosity”, new to Seoul and dazzled by the “endless lights”’, ready to “discover another me”. Her personal story – her journey from Japan to South Korea – became the gateway to an evolved version of herself, where she used her Japanese roots as a sounding board to explore sounds above and beyond."[17]

"I Feel Love", the second track off the album, is a mid-tempo city pop song that borrows heavily from the funk genre.[11] The accompanying trumpet on the track is played by Yoo Seung-cheol.[14][20] Its lyrics speak about Yukika's initial excitement of moving to South Korea.[18][21]

Release and promotion

edit

On December 7, 2019, Yukika announced via her Twitter account that her debut album would be released in 2020.[22] Soul Lady was primarily recorded in the Seocho District, Seoul between 2019 and 2020.[18]

Singles

edit

"Neon" was released as the lead single to the then-unannounced album on February 21, 2019.[23][24] It is a city pop and R&B song that lyrically explores the story of a woman who falls in love during the silence of the city lights at night.[25] The premiere of the track was accompanied with the music video, which was directed by Digipedi.[26][27] Yukika appeared on several South Korean music programs to promote the song, the first being SBS MTV's The Show on February 26, 2019.[28] A promotional showcase for the single was held in Tokyo, Japan on April 23, 2019, and Yukika later performed "Neon" at the Makuhari Messe convention center as part of KCON Japan on May 17, 2019.[29][30] "Neon" received critical acclaim upon its release, with Seung Park from Kotaku commenting that the track was a "wonderful ode to [the] 80s",[31] and other reviewers praising it for being a part of the city pop genre resurgence.[32]

The second single, "Cherries Jubiles", was released on July 9, 2019.[33] A city pop track, Yukika sings about the difficulties of confessing your love to someone for the first time.[34] The song premiered alongside the music video, which was directed by Digipedi.[35] A director's cut of the music video was later made available on YouTube that features an updated display resolution and revised 4:3 aspect ratio.[36] Additionally, the single contains an acoustic version of the song that is present on the Soul Lady album as the final track.[37] At the time of the single's release, Yukika went on a brief hiatus for personal reasons, and was unable to promote it on music programs.[18]
