Boram has had success in her native Korea since first appearing as a contestant in 2010 on Mnet’s “Superstar K2,” where she finished in eighth place. She put out her debut single “Beautiful,” which hit No. 2 on Korea’s Circle Digital Chart in 2014. That song was a semi-autobiographical tune about the pressures to conform to beauty standards.

She released her first EP “Celepretty” the following year, earning a second top 10 entry with the title track. Amid a string of one-off singles and collaborations with artists like Eric Nam and Park Kyung, she put out her second EP “Orange Moon” in 2017 and followed with soundtrack songs and standalone tracks. She most recently put out a pair of singles — “I Hope” and “I Miss You” — earlier this year. Boram was working on an album to coincide with her 10th anniversary as a recording musician this summer.
