Before releasing his first Japanese
album, Unlimited, on December 12, Kim released “Your Story,” the lead track of
the album, first on such major music sites in Japan as iTunes, Music.jp, and
Recochoku.
Playing band music in this album, Kim
showed off a charismatic look with his powerful voice and guitar playing in a
45-second teaser video of “Your Story,” which was released on November 28.
According to reports, modern rock band
Day Break’s bassist Kim Seon Il participated in playing instruments and arrangement
of the song. Day Break members also played guitar, bass, and keyboard for the
song.
A spokesperson for Kim says, “Kim Hyun
Joong has been acknowledged as a talented musician who does high-quality music
since the single, Heat, succeeded in Japan. It attracted a lot of attention
with the fact that it was created in collaboration with the popular Japanese
musician B’z in July. People in the music industry are guessing that ‘Your
Story,’ which was released in December 5, will succeed as much as ‘Heat.’”
Indeed, when a ringtone of “Your Story”
was released along with a teaser video of the song on November 28, it ranked
first on the Recochoku Chart and the Dwango K-pop Chart.
Unlimited, Kim’s first album to be released in Japan, contains a
total of fourteen songs, including such new songs as “Your Story,” “Save Today”
and “I’m Yours” and Kim’s hit songs. It will be released on December 12.
