J.Y. Park will release his new digital single "Happy Hour", led by the title track "Happy Hour" featuring Kwon Jin-ah, on Nov. 5.
JYP Entertainment announced the comeback on Oct. 27 via its official social channels, surprising fans with three teaser images styled like cinematic stills.
The new track will hit streaming services at 6 p.m. KST on Nov. 5. The living legend―who has stayed at the top for over three decades through talent and relentless discipline―teams up for the first time with emotive soloist Kwon Jin-ah, raising anticipation for their fresh chemistry and sound.
The teasers instantly grabbed attention with a playful office comedy vibe: Park nods off against a cubicle wall, stirs an instant coffee mix, and shoots a wary side-eye at a coworker getting praised―selling the everyday grind with sly humor. In another shot, Kwon Jin-ah plays his boss, brandishing a magic wand as if scolding him, while pink fairy wings perched on their shoulders tease the whimsical concept behind the song’s after-work theme.
"Happy Hour" marks Park’s first new music in about a year, following last year’s "Easy Lover."
Park and Kwon first crossed paths on SBS’s "K-Pop Star Season 3" in 2014, when she was a high school freshman competing and he sat on the judges’ panel. After hearing her acoustic rendition of “I Have a Lover,” Park praised the performance, saying it even inspired ideas for his concert.
