Singer Chungha will drop her second full-length album “Bare & Rare” on July 11, according to MNH Entertainment on Monday.

This is the singer’s first music since “Querencia,” her first full-length album, released in February 2021.

“The lead track ‘Sparkling’ shows Chungha’s refreshing change and challenge in her music style,” the agency stated. “It will reveal how she has upgraded herself as an artist.”

Chungha is best known for her powerful vocal talent, demonstrated well in her hits “Roller Coaster” (2018), “Love U” (2018), “Gotta Go” (2019), and “Play” (2020).

Chungha debuted in 2016 as a member of girl group I.O.I, which formed through the first season of Mnet’s popular audition program “Produce 101.” After the group disbanded in early 2017, she debuted as a solo act with the EP “Hands on Me” (2017).
