About Song
Face&Pace is a declaration of personal evolution. Opening with the line, “Had treated myself as a shadow,” the song immediately dives into a journey of reclaiming identity and self-worth. The lyrics unfold like an inner monologue, encouraging listeners to close their eyes, breathe, and rise again at their own pace.
Musically, the track blends ambient R&B textures with modern pop stylings. KISU’s rich, resonant vocals float effortlessly over a minimalist production led by mellow synths, layered drums, and an atmospheric build that mirrors the emotional climb described in the lyrics.
Behind the track is a team of top-tier Korean creatives. KISU co-wrote and co-composed the track alongside Janghyun Park, ensuring his personal vision was fully realized. The song was mixed by Myungkab Son (Koi Studio) and mastered by Namwoo Kwon (821 Sound), both well-respected in Korea’s professional audio scene.
Release Date: April 22, 2025
