SHIN You Me: So Addicted to You; CD Release

By Kim Miso aka Rahel Limor

Shin Yoomi (aka Shin Yumi, Shin You Me), Korean singer-songwriter showcased the release of her new mini-album, “So Addicted to You”. Looking absolutely stunning in a modest blue & red floral skirt with white top she sang confidently and in a sweet yet strong voice wowing the audience with a selection of original songs.

Before focusing on her career as a soloist Shin Yoomi was a vocal trainer and mentor to young upcoming K-pop idols including trainees on a 2017 Mnet reality boy group survival show called “Produce 101 Season 2”. She also coached popular singer Lee Hi who is currently under contract with YG Entertainment.

It was in 2013 that Yoomi decided to come out from behind the scenes. She auditioned for the second season of “The Voice Korea”. Although she was a favorite of the judges she didn’t take the crown and returned to coaching. Aspiring singers might want to check out her video series, One-Point Lesson for short 3-4 minutes lessons and tips on singing.

Yoomi continued to develop her solo career which included the release of a few singles. In 2017 she released a music video of the song, 나만이 오직 널 (Could you love me?). It has a fusion jazz, pop, funk feel to it.

Yoomi’s music explores and blends a variety of styles and genres. She is not only a gifted singer and songwriter. She is also a gifted instrumentalist playing most of the instruments on the 5-track mini album. The CD’s cover art, together with a fine and varied selection of songs, reveals and reflects a mature and evolving musician worthy of our attention.
