Meanwhile, singer Seo In-young appeared on the V app at 11p.m. on Thursday, an hour ahead of the release of her new album, which includes the ballad track “In Your Arms.”

She told fans that she is very happy to be back under the label Star Empire, which she was under from 2002 to 2009 as a member of girl group Jewelry.

“It’s like my parent’s house. I feel very comfortable and happy,” she said.

During the V app broadcast, former Jewelry member Park Jung-ah cheered for Seo over the phone and rapper Crown J, who was paired with Seo in the reality show “We Got Married,” made a surprise appearance. The two sang the duet “Too Much.”

“It’s my first time winning in four years since my debut, so I am dazed at the moment and I don’t know how to thank you. From now on, I will (sing songs) that connect with you and speak from my heart,” she added.

Staff from her label JYP Entertainment celebrated the occasion with her, with a cake, making her teary.

In another V app broadcast, girl group EXID members popped up from the traditional mountain fortress city of Namhansanseong in Gwangju, Geyonggi Province, where they were to record the music program “Open Concert.”
