"The recording was done in real-time. Even though we were in different locations, we could discuss and record it live. The results are very satisfying, and I want to thank Raisa for her beautiful voice in this song," said Sam Kim.
According to Raisa, "Someday" tells the story of a couple that cannot convey their feelings to each other properly due to their ego.
"We have the same vision. Hopefully, this song can lead us both to new listeners in Indonesia and Korea," Raisa added.
"Someday" becomes a breakthrough for Raisa and the JUNI Records label this year.
Juni Records CEO Adryanto Pratono hoped that this song would serve as a bridge to connect Raisa's and Sam Kim's fans.
"We always dream of working with more collaborators from the world's industry," he said.
"Someday" is now available on various digital music platforms. (ded/mcr20/jpnn)
