Epik High Makes Comeback With "Rain Song"

At the end of last month on June 29, Epik High made their comeback with the release of their new song called "Rain Song," which marks the first time the hip-hop group released a song that was not included in an album or as an original soundtrack for a drama or film.

In Korean, the title of the song is translated to "A song to listen to when it's raining." According to Tablo, he came up with the title of the song with the intent of it being easy to search for, such as when people search for "songs to listen to" during rainy days.

Meanwhile, prior to the release to "Rain Song," Epik High also made a comeback earlier this year on January 18 with their 10th album, "Epik High Is Here, Pt. 1."
