It's the rediscovery of Song Ji Eun.

Song Ji Eun's new album, Hope Torture, was showcased on September 30th at Olleh Square in Seoul. It was not the reintroduction of a member of Secret, but the introduction of Song Ji Eun, the diva.

Her vocals over the song were powerful and touching. She was completely different from the person that she is when surrounded by her members as an idol group. She was clad in a see-through black dress, to which she commented, "It's my representation of what 'sexy' is to me - an intimidating appearance hiding a fragile inner person."

She revealed that she participated in the songwriting as well as overseeing the producing of the track. She expressed a desire to be known as an artist.

Solo stages are a good time for those who usually perform as a group to show all of his or her individual skills and charm. Song Ji Eun is no different, and she has been successful at garnering attention so far. Her concept is radically different from her Secret performances. The general consensus is that it is both refreshing and surprising to see her as a solo artist.

"Hope Torture" is a song about woman who's painfully in love with someone she cannot have. It is the perfect flavor of sentimental romance for the season.

Song Ji Eun had her comeback stage on the 26th and is planning on being active as a solo artist for at least a few months to come.
