‘Bare & Rare’ comes over a year after the arrival of Chung Ha’s debut studio record ‘Querencia’, which dropped last February, and marks her first release of 2022. She had previously dropped a special digital single titled ‘Killing Me’ last November.

Just last week, Chung Ha featured on Korean-Canadian singer Junny’s new single, ‘Color Me’, from his forthcoming studio album. The song had been the follow-up to Junny’s May single ‘Get Ya!’, which featured Korean rapper pH-1. Both tracks are set to appear on his upcoming full-length project.
