JISOO Introduces ‘AMORTAGE,’ Marking a Rebirth for the Global Superstar
JISOO, the South Korean singer, actress, and global style icon, has officially announced her highly anticipated solo mini album, AMORTAGE—set to be released on Valentine's Day, February 14th, through Warner Records.
Upon announcement, the album is already generating significant buzz among her massive fanbase. Pre-orders are open now, with nine unique physical versions offering exclusive content like polaroids and postcards, further fueling the excitement.
AMORTAGE promises to be JISOO's most comprehensive solo project to date, described as a "rebirth" for the artist. The title itself, a clever portmanteau of "amor" (love) and "montage," hints at the album's thematic exploration of love's various stages and the myriad moments that define a relationship. The tracks are intended to create a vivid and emotional reel of this journey, offering listeners an intimate glimpse into JISOO's artistic vision.
JISOO's solo career has been on a meteoric rise since her 2023 debut with the single album Me. That release shattered records, becoming the best-selling album by a female soloist in South Korea and the first to surpass a million sales. The breakout track "꽃(FLOWER)" achieved similar success, making history as the first song by a female K-Pop solo artist to achieve one million pre-orders. It also earned the highest first-week sales by a female soloist and the highest 24-hour view count for any K-Pop music video in 2023. Internationally, "FLOWER" soared to impressive heights, reaching #2 on the Billboard Global 200 and #1 on the Global Excl. U.S. Chart.
Beyond her musical achievements, JISOO's influence extends into the realms of fashion and culture. As a global ambassador for prestigious brands like Dior and Cartier, she has solidified her status as a style icon. Her impact was further underscored when she was named the most-mentioned celebrity during New York Fashion Week in 2024. This influence, combined with her burgeoning acting career, including her upcoming role in the K-Drama Newtopia (premiering on Prime Video on February 7th), paints a picture of a multi-talented artist at the peak of her career.
