I-DLE’s Miyeon releases solo single

The song is available via BMG

Miyeon, celebrated vocalist of global K-pop group I-DLE, releases her new solo single “Sky Walking,” available across all streaming platforms with a Dolby Atmos version also out now via BMG.

First introduced during her solo stage on the 2024 I-dol World Tour in Seoul, “Sky Walking” reveals a new dimension of Miyeon’s artistry. The song blends a bold bassline and crisp drums with shimmering 80s-inspired guitar and synths, creating an invigorating sound. Lyrically, it offers a message of hope and freedom, carried by the pop star’s unmistakable voice. The track also highlights her creative growth, with Miyeon contributing to its writing and composition.

For Miyeon, the release marks another milestone in a career that has spanned music, acting, and broadcasting. Born Cho Mi-yeon in 1997, she studied violin, guitar, and piano from an early age before debuting with i-dle in 2018. Within months, she was recognized as one of the group’s standout vocalists, and soon reached international acclaim as the voice of Ahri in the virtual K-pop group K/DA, whose debut single “Pop/Stars” topped Billboard’s World Digital Songs chart and became a viral phenomenon.

Her first solo project, the 2022 EP [MY], showcased a more intimate side through songs like “Drive,” earning her a first music show trophy as a soloist. Since then, she has continued to expand her range, recording soundtracks, collaborating with artists such as Raiden and Lee Donghae, and serving as the longest-running female host in M Countdown history. She has also built a reputation as a versatile actress, taking lead roles in projects including Replay: The Moment and Delivery.

With “Sky Walking,” Miyeon underscores her versatility and ambition, bringing together the experience of her early training, the momentum of her group’s success, and her own evolving creative voice.
