In a somber turn of events, the music industry mourns the untimely passing of singer-songwriter Nahee, known offstage as Kim Na-hee, who left this world on the 8th at the tender age of 24. Since her debut with the single ‘Blue City’ in 2019, Nahee captivated audiences with her distinctive sound, effortlessly traversing various genres, from city pop to ballad.
Noteworthy for her direct involvement in crafting both lyrics and music, Nahee showcased not only her vocal prowess but also her skills as a true artist. Her discography includes hits such as ‘Still Remaining,’ ‘Gloomy Day,’ and ‘Insomnia Song.’ Last July, she released the electronica-infused ‘Rose,’ a heartfelt ode to her fans and a testament to her diverse musical range.
During the release of ‘Rose,’ Nahee poignantly remarked, “I want to say that my songs so far are like flowers,” and added, “This song is a story I want to convey to many people who love those flowers.” Her words now carry a profound weight as fans and the industry alike grapple with the loss of a promising talent.
The funeral, held at the Central Funeral Hall in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi-do, took place on the 10th November, providing a moment for friends, family, and fans to pay their respects. Nahee’s departure leaves a void in the music world, but her legacy lives on through the melodies and emotions she wove into her art.
