, the 11-track album is finally landing Oct. 20 via Very Cherry, her very own company. Welcome CL, the independent artist.
“This is me getting out of [my] comfort zone to the fullest. This is me releasing an album as an independent artist. This is definitely a statement coming from a K-pop system and also [from] being an idol. K-idol, they call it,” CL says over Zoom one recent evening. She’s calling from Los Angeles after a flurry of traveling over the last few weeks: from Seoul, South Korea, to L.A., to New York for the Met Gala, to Las Vegas, and back to L.A., where she is now shooting a music video.
“I wanted to make sure I know exactly how everything works and understand what I’m doing instead of just going back to the system,” she continues. “And hopefully, this empowers my other artists in Korea and other artists that come from an idol group to be like, yes, you can continue doing this independently whether you decide to go to another label, however way it is. But I just wanted to make sure I am completely understanding everything and learning everything.”has not been easy.
Ten months later, in October 2018, CL left Braun’s SB Projects roster . Then, in November 2019, she left her former Korean record label, a decision thatdug into the details of what really went down behind the scenes. In a 2021cover story, CL seemed to imply it all was just unfortunate circumstances, and perhaps the bad luck of being one of the first Korean artists to attempt the breakthrough. “I don’t think anyone was trying to hold me back,” she told. “I think it was the opposite.
If you ask CL about all this now, she’ll say she prefers to look ahead at the future. “I think it’s more about focusing on what’s next and what can I do from this?” she says. “Like all those challenges. There were many challenges in my life that I had to overcome. So, I’m excited about what’s next, and I really hope my fans are too.
