Sunny Hill’s Kota’s Facts
Kota’s Debut with Sunny Hill
Ahn Jin-ah debuted by the stage name Kota in 2011 as a member of Sunny Hill when the group simultaneously moved to a new music label, Nega Network. Then, in the same year, Sunny Hill moved to LOEN Entertainment and announced that they would release their first EP with a single, “Midnight Circus”. In this era, Kota just underwent promotion as a member of Sunny Hill with their newest song at the time.
“Midnight Circus” is a collection of tricks, cliches, and taboos with semi-dark concepts and a few oddities that have come to define the story of the music video. There isn’t much emotion here, but the rhythm and melody have fast synths but still feel very musical. This song has a life of its own as if Sunny Hill have stepped back into the K-Pop world after a career since 2007 and made a new breakthrough in the music industry in this era. This EP is one of Sunny Hill’s works that seem to bite into a familiar musical style, it is still a refreshing sound that could not last without their existence in the K-Pop industry. There are characters here of each member who have an important role, the use of good vocal processing, and the best quality.
In December 2012, she made a comeback with “Goodbye To Romance”, and it showed a rather feminine appearance because it was a soft ballad song. Moreover, most parts were distributed. As the genre is a ballad, it was well-received by digesting a charming and sophisticated vocal rather than a strong voice. The “Goodbye to Romance” music video tells the story of this one-sided young love story by tracing the development of the narrator’s first love, the love that flows through the golden years of his childhood. Through the narrative that unfolds, we are reminded of childhood and the innocence inherent in the story in this music video. The title song speaks of goodbye to romance, but what the lyrics and music video actually imply is goodbye to fond memories of childhood.

The music video also provides a new look for the members who seem to be working in an office and look sexy with the outfits they wear. “Monday Blues” also tells about the busy schedule on Monday, which is usually boring, but now the boring sensation is being replaced by the excitement that Sunny Hill made in the music video.
