Jihyo of K-pop girl group TWICE unveiled on Sunday, July 30, the full tracklist for her upcoming solo debut mini-album ZONE — and ONCEs are already looking forward to all her songs. 

According to the list, the album contains a total of seven songs, with “Killin’ Me Good” as the title track.

ZONE will also feature a collaboration between Jihyo and American singer 24kGoldn for the song “Talkin’ About It” and a duet with Korean soloist Heize for the song “Don’t Wanna Go Back.”

Other songs include “Closer,” “Wishing On You,” “Room,” and “Nightmare.” In fact, “Nightmare” is already a song familiar to ONCEs as it is already Jihyo’s solo stage for TWICE’s fifth world tour READY TO BE. 

But what really excited ONCEs is seeing the credits in the track list. According to the list, Jihyo helped in penning the lyrics in five out of the seven tracks in the album. She is also credited as a composer in four songs in the album. 

 

Jihyo has also released audio snippets for her songs in ZONE, which heightens the anticipation of the fans for the album’s release. 

 

ZONE will be available on August 18. 

Park Jihyo will be the second member of TWICE to make her debut as a solo artist. In June 2022, Nayeon released her first solo EP Im Nayeon.

TWICE’s Japanese members Momo, Mina, and Sana also made their sub-unit debut in July with the Japanese mini-album Masterpiece.

Currently, TWICE is embarking on their READY TO BE concert tour, wherein they made history as the first K-pop girl group to sell out at a stadium in North America.

TWICE Confirms Jihyo Solo Debut in August

Jihyo discussed her trainee days and how she almost didn't debut in TWICE because she ran away from her company!

It’s official: Jihyo is preparing for her solo debut! The TWICE leader will debut as a solo artist with ‘KILLIN’ ME GOOD’ in August. Park Ji Hyo will be the second member of TWICE to release a solo since Nayeon’s solo debut last year.

Jihyo’s Solo Debut ‘KILLIN’ ME GOOD’ Confirmed For August 2023

The official TWICE social media accounts shared the new teaser for ‘KILLIN’ ME GOOD’. This time, the poster features Jihyo applying lipstick in the rearview mirror of her car. The caption reads, “ZYO’s ZONE ‘Killin’ Me Good’ Coming Soon This August.”

This confirms all the fan theories about ‘KILLIN’ ME GOOD’ since the first teaser was dropped. Fans believed that the teaser is not for a TWICE comeback. Instead, ONCEs got excited about Jihyo’s possible solo debut. Luckily, the fans were right about their hopes.

Jihyo’s solo debut is not a huge surprise for ONCEs who have been attending TWICE’s Ready To Be World Tour. During their concerts, Jihyo had been performing a previously unreleased track “Nightmare”. There have been speculations that the song will be part of her upcoming solo debut.

Park Ji Hyo will be the second member of TWICE to debut as a solo artist. In May 2022, Nayeon announced the release of her first solo EP “Im Nayeon” which was released in June of that year. The mini-album was the first album by a South Korean soloist to reach the top ten on the US Billboard 200.

TWICE is currently on the North American leg of their Ready To Be World Tour which kicks off in Inglewood, California on June 10, 2023. The US leg will conclude in Atlanta, Georgia on July 9, giving Jihyo enough time to prepare for her solo debut.

Jihyo’s solo debut ‘KILLIN’ ME GOOD’ has not yet been given an official release date in August. Stay tuned for more updates on this story.
