Solo artist Yuju and Lee Woo will release a duet in March, announced Lee’s agency KH Company on Monday.

The title of the song and the release date will be announced at a later date, KH Company said.

Yuju debuted in 2015 as the main vocalist of girl group GFriend, known for their hit tracks, “Rough” (2016), “Navillera” (2016), “Fingertip” (2017) and “MAGO” (2020). She released her first solo EP in January 2022, eight months after the girl group’s exclusive contract terminated with Source Music in May 2021. Yuju is best known for her duet with rapper Loco, “Spring is Gone by Chance” (2015).

Lee Woo debuted as a member of boy band Madtown in 2014, which disbanded in 2017 when the members filed a lawsuit against the agency to end its exclusive contract after the founder of GNI Entertainment was arrested for fraud the same year.
