SEOUL, Nov. 7 (Yonhap) -- Korean jazz singer Woong San has released a reinterpretation of a classic Korean art song.

 

According to her label Universal Music, Woong San’s new single “Like the Wind That Meets the Lotus” was released at noon on Friday.

 

The original piece, based on a poem of the same name by poet Seo Jeong-ju, was composed by Kim Joo-won as a traditional Korean art song (gagok). In her latest work, Woong San reimagines the song through her unique jazz sensibility, expressing the sentiment of autumn with lyrical warmth. The recording also features guitarist Park Yoon-woo.
