YongYong (용용)

YongYong (용용), born Na Hee-soo (나희수) on June 9, 1998, is a South Korean rapper, singer, and songwriter celebrated for her genre-defying sound that blends hip-hop, alternative rock, and electronic music. Debuting in 2017 with the single “Scribbling” under Mix In Media, YongYong quickly stood out in Korea’s underground scene with her raw emotional honesty and striking aesthetic. Now signed with Saurus Entertainment, she has carved her own lane with a bold creative vision and a growing discography that includes standout EPs like Im Your XYZ (2020), Vanillaryy (2021), and Black Diaryy (2023), culminating in her first full-length album Mymy in 2023. She’s also made waves through collaborations with artists like ASH ISLAND, D-Hack, and Jayci Yucca, further expanding her influence.

What sets YongYong apart is her deeply personal songwriting, which dives into themes of inner struggle, emotional healing, and identity. Her tracks—such as “Rain Star” and “Dying Every Second”—are moody, immersive, and layered with atmospheric beats, melancholic vocals, and gritty rap verses that resonate with listeners navigating their own complexities. Whether she’s delivering vulnerable lines in a hushed tone or spitting sharp rhymes with edge, her music remains authentic and reflective. Fluent in Korean, English, and Japanese, she connects with a wide audience and maintains a close bond with her fanbase, affectionately called the “Nyom Nyom Corps.” Known for her eclectic style and creative fearlessness, YongYong continues to be a standout voice in Korea’s evolving alt-music space, pushing artistic boundaries with every release.
