Genre-bending musician Lee Hee-moon unveils four new music videos in Not Alone project in collaboration with E-Won Art Factory.
A classically trained singer of pansori (a Korean narrative musical traditional), Lee is renowned for his eccentric performances combining Korean folk music, jazz and rock.
The Not Alone project visualizes four of Lee s songs reinterpreting Gyeonggi Minyo, or folk songs originated from Gyeonggi Province.
The project began as Lee s attempt to reach audiences in a contact-free way as live performances have been canceled one after another amid the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic. Under the theme of collaboration and communication, Lee joined hands with experts to convey his songs with kitschy imagery.
