J.Y. Park will release a new single, ‘Groove Missing’, and title song, ‘Groove Back’ on November 21.
The new digital single, ‘Groove Missing’, follows the previous one, ‘When We Disco (Duet with Sunmi)’ which was released about 2 years ago and caused a retro disco boom in the music industry in August 2020.
This new song is a meaningful gift that holds the passion and affection of the ‘eternal entertainer’ J.Y. Park who always delighted music fans at home and abroad with the best music and performances. Initially, 'Groove Back' was only planned to be used as music for the dance challenge, but release of the song was decided due to the enthusiastic support of domestic and foreign K-pop fans. The song was pre-released through the ‘Groove Back’ short form dance contents with Super Junior’s Shindong, JYP’s ‘adored student’ Sunmi and the employees of Asiana Airlines and the challenge extended version ‘JYP WORLD RPD (Random Play Dance) TOUR 2022’ which was held in 5 regions including Seoul, Korea; Barcelona, Spain; Bangkok, Thailand; San Paulo, Brazil; and Los Angeles, USA and captured immediate attention of music fans around the world for its addictive melody and ‘tasty’ choreography. Since then, there was a flood of requests for release of the song and J.Y. Park passionately responded by announcing a pre-release of the music video of ‘Groove Back’ on November 18 and the release of a single album on the 21st.
The title song, 'Groove Back', started with the thought of J.Y. Park wanting to return to high school to the days he started dancing and dance to the choreographies of that time again. He wrote the lyrics, composed the music and did the arrangement. He brought out the groove of the various instruments amidst a slow tempo and presented the epitome of American dance songs of the 80’s. As you can presume from the titles of the title song and the single, 'Groove Missing', the lyrics carry a positive message to restore leisure and depth in music, dance and life in general. Listening pleasure was enhanced with the featuring of Korea’s greatest groove rapper, Gaeko of Dynamic Duo and with optimum synergy created by the two artists, they treat the listeners to a ‘veteran chef’s course meal’.
The music video of the new song is full of liveliness as each move of the choreography is alive. It has exciting group dance scenes and shows J.Y. Park’s desires for everyone around the world to become one and be happy through music.
Following the invigorating promotion which aroused excitement for people of all ages and genders around the world, the new song, ‘Groove Back’, is expected to leave a new footprint for the ‘living legend’ J.Y. Park and much attention is focused on it by music fans who truly love songs, dance and groove.
