Lee Sa-bae ’SPECTRUM‘ music video
As beauty creator Lee Sa-bae makes a surprise transformation into a singer, her singing and dancing skills are drawing major attention.
At 6 p.m. on the 8th, she unveiled her first single through major online music platforms and her official YouTube channel, throwing down the gauntlet in the music scene. As the head of the makeup brand ‘Two Slash Four’ and a top creator, her dazzling foray drew fans’ attention.
This debut track is based on ‘UK garage (UK Garage)’, an electronic dance genre that was popular in the UK in the 1990s. Her agency explained, “Its signature offbeat shuffle beat and sophisticated bassline are perfectly combined with Lee Sa-bae’s one-of-a-kind visual direction.”
In particular, the lyrics carry Lee Sa-bae’s autobiographical narrative intact, adding authenticity. “I’m not just an influencer, No matter what, I’m a creator (I’m not just an influencer. Whatever the situation comes, yes, I’m a creator),” is being regarded as a forceful declaration that captures her identity as someone who has expanded from makeup artist to brand founder, continually pushing her boundaries.

The music video released alongside the track is drawing reactions as truly ‘next level’. In the video, Lee Sa-bae showcases vocals on par with seasoned singers and powerful choreography that belies her title of beauty creator. Beyond a mere buzzworthy debut, makeup and styling optimized for current trends, plus commanding stage presence, come together to deliver a polished performance.
Immediately after its release, online communities and social media were flooded with praise. Users said, “She’s the No. 1 in the beauty scene, so if she’s good at both singing and dancing too, isn’t that unfair?” “Her tone reminds me of Chungha, and her rap brings Miryo to mind. A true cheat character.” “She feels like aespa.” “I didn’t expect much, but the song is so good and the styling is great that I was genuinely surprised.”
In the music video description, she also shared, “I prepared this track while imagining and cheering for you as you overcome your fear of challenges and move forward with self-assurance and confidence. I poured my sincerity into it, so I would be so happy if you listened with interest.”
With Lee Sa-bae setting down her makeup box for a moment and taking up the mic, attention is focused on what new ‘creator’ milestone she will set through this debut in the music scene and what steps she will take next.
