- KISS OF LIFE, a 'talented hot girl' aims for the global market with their third mini-album "Lose Yourself"!
- Comeback as an artist who musically tells the process of "immersion" beyond "freedom"!
- Do we look like weirdos? This appearance is also attractive to me! Release of the title track 'Get Loud' about those who dream in reality
KISS OF LIFE, which captivated fans and the public with live skills and infinite energy, causing a strong sensation in the music market, has shown remarkable growth by realizing its ambition to breathe new life into the music industry. The music video for KISS OF LIFE's digital single 'Sticky', which contains a refreshing sensibility, received a hot response as soon as it was released, and was ranked on the YouTube domestic popular rising music chart, as well as popular rising video charts in global countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia.
In addition, while ranking at the top of domestic music charts, they also made their name on the Billboard World Digital Song Sales Chart and the Billboard Global 200 Chart, firmly demonstrating their presence as a globally popular trend loved both domestically and internationally. KISS OF LIFE, which has established itself with various genres of music and performances based on skills since its debut, has achieved meaningful records such as winning first place on music shows and breaking into the TOP 3 on domestic charts within a year of its debut.
Following this momentum, KISS OF LIFE intends to establish itself as a unique personality with its third mini-album [Lose Yourself]. KISS OF LIFE, which has organically connected each album with the keyword "freedom" from its debut album to the present, musically expresses the process of "immersion" beyond "freedom" in this album.
“You exist within me, and I exist within you like the universe.”
“So lose yourself”
This album [Lose Yourself] interestingly depicts the points where KISS OF LIFE in the title track ‘Get Loud’ and KISS OF LIFE in the pre-release track ‘R.E.M’ meet. The two songs are organically connected with the keyword "immersion" and at the same time, they tell stories about reality and dreams from different directions, providing fun in interpretation.
‘Get Loud’ tells the story of artists who chase dreams in reality and look a little strange. The appearance of being immersed in something may seem eccentric to others, but conversely, it can be seen as attractive and professional. Like the lyrics "This is like a dream that never breaks," it illuminates the shining moments of those who dream while immersing themselves in what they like in reality. In addition, in this music video, the attractive appearance of an artist discovering a new self that I didn't even know in the moment of immersing myself in creation is visually expressed in a unique and trendy way through the medium of "Confetti."
On the other hand, the pre-release song 'R.E.M' is a song about those who want to escape into their dreams because they don't want to face reality. "It's okay just to meet something you wanted even in a dream," they decide, but in the end, they can't erase the desire to face it in reality, not in a dream. We sometimes miss a certain time or become obsessed with irreversible time. Such an appearance may seem foolish to others or may be ridiculed, but it reminds us that someone's immersion in longing to face each other again even in a dream can be a desperate dream and hope for someone.
The protagonists of ‘Get Loud’ and ‘R.E.M’ are all the same person. There are shining moments, but there are also times when you miss those moments. By unraveling the various inner sides of one person with the theme of 'doppelganger', it conveys the message that they hope to immerse themselves in their lives in any way, look back on themselves, and gain enlightenment.
This 3rd mini album [Lose Yourself] consists of a total of 7 tracks of various genres, including the pre-release song ‘R.E.M’ with a dreamy mood that stands out with emotional melodies and the title song ‘Get Loud’ of the rhythmic hip-hop dance genre that strongly reveals KISS OF LIFE's unique personality, from groovy R&B to chill hip-hop and EDM dance pop. You can enjoy KISS OF LIFE's unique musical color. Through this album, they plan to grow once again as an artist who makes you more immersed in the story of Kiss of Life.
01. Get Loud – Title
‘Get Loud’ is a track with an impressive hip-hop rhythm of Dougystyle and a guitar stroke chop that supports it, and a Latin-style melody that stands out attractively. The lyrics expressing the state of being immersed in music and moments are digested with the members' unique vocals, further highlighting KISS OF LIFE's artistic side. Through the heavy yet rough vocals and genre elements revealed throughout the track, you will be able to feel KISS OF LIFE's unique color, which was shown in previous works, even more intensely.

02. R.E.M
‘R.E.M’, created in collaboration with ‘Cathy Dennis’, who created masterpieces by divas of the 2000s such as Britney Spears and Celine Dion, is a medium-tempo R&B pop genre song that harmoniously blends vintage EP riffs, heavy bass, and modern R&B rhythms. The groovy and mellow topline harmonizes with the members' unique vocals, perfectly recreating the Y2K mood. This song contains lyrics about longing for someone who appears in a dream and wanting to stay in REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep without waking up from the dream, and presents listeners with a fairy tale with a dreamy and warm voice.

03. Chemistry
Track 3, ‘Chemistry’, is a groovy slow jam R&B number reminiscent of 3Letter Names girl groups from the 90s and 00s such as TLC, SWV, and 3LW, and the dreamy guitar and vocal production further enhance the captivating atmosphere. The sensual vocals that harmonize with the lyrics about falling deeper and deeper into each other at the moment of facing each other captivate the audience at once.
