“Superstar K” Season 4 winner Roy Kim unveiled his digital single “Spring, Spring, Spring” with a music video on Monday, sweeping Korea’s major online music charts Bugs, Mnet and Melon in less than two hours.

“Spring, Spring, Spring” is the 20-year-old singer’s original composition following a contemporary country style. The song features an easy-to-follow melody with a catchy chorus. The song features romantic lyrics to welcome the warmth of the season.

Kim’s new single was arranged by Jung Ji-chan, a music director on MBC’s “I Am a Singer,” and mastered by Stuart Hawks of U.K.’s Metropolis Group. Hawks previously worked with South Korean guitarist Hong Jun-ho and other global artists such as Amy Winehouse and Nakashima Mika. 

The 24-second teaser released on April 19 has attracted much attention from the public. It followed his guerilla performance on April 21 at N Seoul Tower on Mount Namsan, which gathered more than 4,000 fans to hear his new song. 

“Spring, Spring, Spring” is Kim’s second self-composed song, following “Passing By” released in 2012.
