Actress Lee Shi-young (Birth of the Rich, Boys Before Flowers) returns to music, this time with a contribution to Honey Family‘s new album, Volume 5.

Lee sang a track on the OST of her last film, 2009’s The Descendant of Hong Gil Dong, and also put out a digital single remake of a Beige’s [지지리], but has never formally debuted as a singer. Her collaboration with Honey Family isn’t quite a debut in and of itself, but the news has fans greatly anticipating her career as a vocalist.

Lee will be featured in the track “What is Love,” (It’s actually more colloquial like, “What’s the deal with love”) which is a song about the pain of saying goodbye. The song will also feature a collaboration with original Honey Family member Gary (Kang Hee-gun) of Leessang. This reunion has netizens abuzz with high expectations for the song.

Honey Family’s leader Park Myung-ho praised Lee Shi-young for her vocal chops, and said that she’s got talent to spare. Lee also contributed to the track “That’s My Style” on the upcoming album, Honey Family: Volume 5.

She’s not going to be breaking any charts, but she seems the right sensibility for a hip-hop vocal feature. I’m interested in Leessang’s collaboration on that song more than anything, and hope that Lee continues to make a name for herself as an actress.

Ooh, that's a nice song. Never knew LSY can sing, too.

And the 2nd song is a nice spin of The Stylistics' "You Make Me Feel Brand New." (No, I wasn't born during the height of that song's popularity, just heard it from my uncles :-D)

Actually I love her voice since her duet with former WGM couple and ex boyfriend Jun JIn. It's a pity they finally broke up because I like their odd pairing!
So it's confirmed she will play in Playful Kiss? That's good!

Thanks for the songs,javabeans, will take it! :D
