The duet and its eight-year gap
Rappers Tiger JK and Yoonmirae will release their new single "Let Me Love You" on August 20, their first duet in eight years. The track marks the Korean hip-hop couple's first collaboration since "I Love You Too," featured on Drunken Tiger's final studio album "Drunken Tiger X: Rebirth of Tiger JK" in November 2018. Both artists took part in writing and composing the new song, according to their agency Feel Ghood Music, also transliterated as Philgood Music.
Sound and lyrical direction
"Let Me Love You" departs from the R&B and hip-hop style the pair have previously shown, incorporating elements of Jersey club and electronic music. The agency said the track captures the excitement of falling in love again with someone who has long been by your side. As a real-life married couple performing the song together, the artists add a personal dimension to the collaboration that earlier coverage highlighted.
Release activities and live appearances
Alongside the single, Tiger JK and Yoonmirae plan to open a pop-up store, launch new brand merchandise, and roll out clothing to expand their offline presence. The pair are also scheduled to perform at the Waterbomb music festival on Saturday. The release will be distributed through various music platforms.
Shared history and earlier collaborations
Tiger JK and Yoonmirae, longtime figures in Korea's hip-hop scene, founded Feel Ghood Music and have also worked together as members of hip-hop group MFBTY, known for "Buckubucku" (2015). Their earlier duet "I Love You Too" has remained popular among fans and has been regarded as the couple's signature joint track since its 2018 release, when the two appeared together in the music video.
Other developments
Separately, BigBang released a music video teaser for their new digital single "BiiiG" on August 18 through YG Entertainment, with the full track scheduled for release at 6 p.m. on August 19, the anniversary of the group's 20th debut. YG described the song as a high-energy hip-hop track featuring the fandom name "Bangbong" in the lyrics, marking BigBang's first new song in four years.
