Sunmi made a spectacular comeback. On November 5 at 6 PM KST, she released her first full-length solo album, 'HEART MAID,' marking a milestone in her 18-year career.
The title track, "CYNICAL," expresses Sunmi’s sharp perspective on the world in her own distinctive voice. The song asks the provocative question, “Why so cynical?” to those who face life with skepticism. With bold visuals and dynamic performances, the track highlights both musical sophistication and visual immersion.
The music video is styled like a short thriller with intense storytelling that draws viewers into Sunmi’s world. In a standout scene, after meeting a grim fate in a bathroom, Sunmi transforms into a maiden ghost, delivering a performance full of raw and almost manic emotion.
Her choreography adds a chilling edge. Movements inspired by a ghostly figure keep viewers captivated, while Sunmi’s eccentric and cynical acting injects a playful energy. The MV’s horror-comedy-inspired visuals and performances showcase Sunmi’s artistic universe, where humor and warmth coexist even in a cynical reality.
With "CYNICAL," Sunmi proves her mastery of striking concepts, compelling storytelling, and musical excellence.
