After going radio silent for a while, K-pop star Chungha is back with a bang. She last had a comeback with her first studio album ‘Querencia’ and was featured in Rain’s ‘Why Don’t We’ in February. She was also part of the I.O.I reunion for their fifth debut anniversary in May. Fans did spot her in various places like a wedding and art fairs, but that has been it. However, October is a good month for Byulharangs (her fandom) with Chungha releasing K-drama OSTs and an original song ‘Bad Girl’ for Mnet’s ‘Street Woman Fighter’.  

Last week, it had been reported that Chungha had lent her voice for the OST ‘Someday’ in the K-drama ‘One The Woman’.
