Why LE SSERAFIM Yunjin’s New Self-Composed Song Has Fans Emotional
LE SSERAFIM‘s Yunjin warmed fans’ hearts with the release of her self-composed song “Raise y_our glass.”
It may not have been long since LE SSERAFIM made their debut earlier this year, but Yunjin is already giving fans a good look at her impressive talent. Made to commemorate the day in which LE SSERAFIM’s fandom name ‘FEARNOT’ was announced, “Raise y_our glass” has proven to be a really moving song.
It is evident that Yunjin put a lot of thought into it, starting from the name. As a combination of her name and the word ‘our,’ the word ‘y_our’ is meant to tell the story of Yunjin’s journey so far with her members and with fans.
In 'Raise y_our glass', "y_our" holds a special meaning. "Y" (which means "Huh Yunjin") + "Our" (which means "we"), were combined to create "Y_our".
"It's a song that tells a story for me, for you, and for us," and she chose 'honesty' as her point of appreciation.

The story is one of gratefulness, particularly since Yunjin hadn’t expected to end up where she is today.
Despite the long journey leading up to her debut, and the many realities she faced after her debut, Huh Yunjin eventually realized that what she wanted to say the most was 'thank you' and started working on music.

For this reason, the open and honest way Yunjin expresses herself in her lyrics and in the song’s video has had fans feeling somewhat emotional, especially considering the difficulties Yunjin faced as a trainee. After she failed to make it in Pledis Entertainment, Yunjin had already decided to return to the US to study music when Source Music offered her a place in LE SSERAFIM.
this line of the song is making me break down…
yunjin really thought she’d never become an idol after pledis dropped her, so her suddenly getting a call from soumu to join le sserafim must’ve been insane for her to experience pic.twitter.com/66y1KBdbH7

But it’s not just fans who were touched by Yunjin’s song. While “Raise y_our glass” is a testament to how far Yunjin has come…

It’s no wonder then that it also made them teary—even Kazuha!
After all, Yunjin has always been open about the fact that, to her, the members were truly meant to be.

Yunjin’s “Raise y_our glass” proves that Yunjin is a rookie idol in name only, as her songwriting and vocal skills are decidedly on another level. Her work is already making fans and her members extremely proud!
huh yunjin held her own as a 6mo trainee in pd48, trained for 4 years, got called to join le sserafim as she was going back to the US, wants to change the idol industry, and now a self written solo release 3mo after debut??
our yunjin never disappoints. we are so proud of you. https://t.co/a4M3Lhtw0L
