Suran - Love Story (cover art)

Suran releases single and music video ‘Love Story (Feat. Crush)’

Singer-songwriter Suran has released her new single ‘Love Story’ today which features Crush and co-producers GroovyRoom.

Love Story‘ is an alternation of emotions and trendy pop sounds that shines with Suran and Crush‘s sweet and lovely voices.

This romantic story depicts the most exciting part of love, its beginning. Suran co-composed the song alongside H1GHR Music’s highly popular producer duo GroovyRoom, who she’s already worked with on the track ‘Somewhere’ before.

Further support comes from pianist Yongjun Chon who could be heard on Big Bang’s ‘LAST DANCE’ or Zion.T‘s ‘Yanghwa BRDG’, from musician June who worked with Suran on a song off her first mini album ‘Walkin‘, and from Wonil Gwak on the strings.
Meanwhile, Crush adds a load of adorableness to the song with his witty rap lyrics.
