Younha to release tenth single in Japan

Korean singer Younha is set to release her tenth single in Japan next week, according to her agency on Friday.

The singer, who debuted in Japan five years ago, will be releasing the new single "I Like You" simultaneously in Korean and in Japan on November 18, Lions Media said in a press release.

The single carries two tracks, both co-written by Younha, including the title song "I Like You" and "Sunday". The singer reportedly said the tittle track is about her own story while "Sunday", a modern rock-style tune, contains lyrics about complimenting and consoling oneself when you cannot be with the one you love.

The 21-year-old singer is nicknamed the "Oricon comet" for her success as a J-pop singer. She has released eight single and two albums in Japan, some of which were featured in Japanese TV dramas.

The single "I Like You" will be available in Korea, both online and off, next Wednesday.
