‘Street diva’ Lim Jeong Hee has made a comeback on “Music Core” with her new mini album, having transformed into a ‘Golden Lady‘.

The singer had a successful comeback with ‘It Can’t Be Real‘ last September after years of hiatus. She recently showcased her untouchable singing talent in tvN’s “Opera Star 2011“, and was widely regarded to be K-pop’s greatest ‘opera diva’. Now Lim Jeong Hee has signaled her return as a ‘golden lady’, becoming a representative of the world’s beautiful and confident women.

‘Golden Lady’, the title song of her second mini album, combines rock and funk to create a whole new genre of hybrid hip-hop. Lim Jeong Hee’s powerful vocals are well captured in the song, with the lyrics portraying the confidence of beautiful women. The direct yet satisfying lyrics are sure to have female listeners nod their heads in agreement. Sexy idol HyunA was also featured in the song, making the quality of the song even higher with her unbeatable rapping skills.

INFINITE has made a comeback with their new digital single ‘Can U Smile (Broadcasting Ver.)‘ on this week’s “Music Core“.

The boys, who have emphasized their chicness and powerful synchronized choreography for ‘Come Back Again‘ and ‘BTD‘, maintained the romantic concept that they had for ‘Nothing’s Over‘.

The boys added their acoustic feel for ‘Can U Smile’ and showcased their sweet charms for the broadcast version of the song.

Composer Han Jae Ho and lyricist Kim Seung Soo, who are both known for producing all of INFINITE’s title tracks in the past, combined forces again for ‘Can U Smile’.

The two focused on changing the previous pop dance number to having more of an acoustic feel, making the song perfect for a hot summer’s day.

INFINITE, who debuted almost a year ago, unveiled the digital single to showcase their abilities as musicians, wanting a transition from being known as ‘idols who can only dance’.

The song captures the deep emotions of the boys, with its lingering melody and sad lyrics, such as “I can’t seem to hold on to you with only my heart“. This seems to be enough for INFINITE to make the transition from bright and powerful idols to real musicians.

Six out of the seven tracks were composed by him, and all seven feature his very own lyrics, all of which exemplify his growth as a singer-songwriter.
