Scheduled to be released on Jan. 15, “Lucky” was written by JYP Entertainment’s chief producer Park Jin-young. Kim and Park collaborated for the choreography of Park’s 2023 single “Changed Man.”


“Park gave Kim this song as a present to express his gratitude for her participation,” KWSunflower said in a press release.

The song features Red Velvet’s Seulgi, who also appears in the music video with Kim.
