Gong Min-ji (MINZY), a member of the group 2NE1, is launching her solo career.

On the 28th at 6 p.m., Gong Min-ji will release her new single 'CALLING' through various online music platforms and simultaneously unveil the music video for the title track.

The new single includes a total of three tracks: the Korean version of the title song 'CALLING', its English version, and the B-side track 'We Almost Were'.

The title track 'CALLING' is a soulful R&B song featuring a rich choir. It tells the story of confronting oneself again after being lost in darkness and rising up by following an inner call. The lyrics, such as "My heart that had gone out comes alive and bursts forth," convey the feeling of a heart coming back to life and the determination to move forward. Gong Min-ji guides the song's overwhelming emotions with delicate emotional expression and powerful vocals.

The message embedded in the song is also reflected in the choreography. 'CALLING' features a key dance move that expresses the sign language meaning of "I can hear it." Gong Min-ji stated, "I wanted to express music not just heard through ears, but experienced together by everyone with eyes and hearts." This signature dance move can be seen in the 'CALLING' music video released alongside the single.

The B-side track 'We Almost Were' is an R&B song infused with rock sounds. It speaks of relationships and possibilities that seemed within reach but ultimately did not come to pass, while the intensifying rock sound toward the end and Gong Min-ji's emotional vocals add lingering depth. Guitarist Lee Jin-joo from DNCE, a band led by Joe Jonas, participated in the guitar performance.

Debuting as a member of 2NE1 in 2009, Gong Min-ji has expanded her activities as both a singer and performer by balancing group and solo endeavors. Recently, she reunited with global fans through 2NE1's full-group activities and now begins a new chapter as a solo artist with 'CALLING'. Attention is focused on Gong Min-ji's upcoming journey to unfold her unique musical world through 'CALLING'.
