On January 10, KST, a digital single titled “After Love” popped up across multiple digital music platforms, including Melon and YouTube. The album cover immediately drew attention as it featured a candid photo of Song Hye Kyo.

The track is a reprised version of the 1997 original version, released by Uhm Jung Hwa. Song Hye Kyo’s delicate voice, combined with the emotional lyrics, has made it into a perfect heartbreak anthem.

The actress will reveal the reason behind her decision to suddenly record this song and release it unpromoted in a video on Kang Min Kyung’s YouTube channel.
