Gongwon drops new single 'Irijeori' Oct 27, announces first solo concert in November

Two new songs, all written by her

Gongwon (공원, real name Park Si-eun) drops her new digital single Irijeori (이리저리) on October 27 at 6 PM across online music platforms. The two-track release pairs title track Irijeori with B-side Jip-euro (집으로). She wrote and composed both songs herself.

Irijeori starts from the question "Who am I?" The track works through identity and the reason for existence. Neither song landed as a surprise for anyone who caught her set at the 2026 Busan International Rock Festival on October 2. She performed both tracks live and announced the October comeback right there. On October 20, she posted a formal countdown to SNS.

The single was produced with support from the 2026 Korean Popular Music Awards' Music Connect program, backed by Kakao Creative Foundation and Melon. Gongwon is signed to Archive Morning (아카이브아침).

First solo concert, full band, all standing

Her first-ever solo concert, TAKE 01 (테이크 01), runs November 28-29 at Musinsa Garage in Mapo-gu, Seoul. The show will feature the new songs alongside a full band setup. The entire venue is configured as standing.

Tickets go on sale exclusively through 29CM on November 29 at 8 PM. (Yes, the ticket sale date is the same as the second concert night.)

Gongwon was nominated for Rookie of the Year at the 23rd Korean Popular Music Awards. She reached the final top 10 on JTBC's Singer Again 4 as contestant #61.
