Fin.K.L, a four-member girl group that had its heyday in the 1990s, will return with a fresh release after 14 years, according to JTBC reality show "Camping Club," Sunday. The band's last album "Fin K.L" was released in 2005.
The program featured the quartet ― Lee Hyo-ri, Ock Joo-hyun, Sung Yu-ri and Lee Jin ― preparing for the new release and a concert. On the show, the group traveled around Korea in a camping car, shared their stories, and decided whether to perform on stage as a group again to celebrate the 21st anniversary.
"I thought it would be far too obvious if we merely belt out our old songs again," Hyo-ri said on the program.
The four members met Kim Hyun-chul, an acclaimed songwriter, to discuss the details.
Although the track's album has been kept under wraps, Kim has already written the melodies. But he left out the lyrics so Fin K.L members can contribute to them.
Fin K.L debuted with the album "Blue Rain" in 1998 and shot to fame with hit songs including "Eternal Love (1999)" and "Now (2000)." Fin K.L. was one of the most popular girl groups of the '90s, alongside rival S.E.S.
