The Mermaid... Comes Back Home 2009
When I first heard this album, for 50 minutes I didn't do anything but sitting back & listening to a magnificent music. I couldn't do anything else. I was listening to "인어.. 집으로 돌아오다" meaning "The Mermaid...Comes Back Home"

One song after another captured and bewiched me and I became happier and happier. What I heard were great songs that moved in the same path that made Loveholic songs shining to me. They sounded as good as the ones I'd heard from Jisun in Loveholic, mellow, rocky, upbeat, and ... all were there.
I felt the core of Loveholic's songs was present in Jusin's songs. I think I heard the most liked part or my favourite part of Loveholic's music, that is Jisun's voice, after all she was the voice of Loveholic. I'm glad that I heard what I loved from Loveholic's songs in her songs.
IIt's not just that! This album brings new tunes and takes us to the realms that are new. Ji-Seon herself wrote all of the lyrics and melodies to all of the songs. That's why making this album took so long because she left Loveholic in 2007.
This album contains the spirit of Loveholic and it brings new music that probably couldn't be heard in Loveholic. I'm not sure but now I think that's why she left Loveholic.
She did a great job making all these great songs and making a person like me satisfied and pitying less, because now Jisun's walking in the areas that she loved and I loved, continuing making the music she loves and I've love.
In 2011 she released a single/mini album called 바람 {Wish} which is consisted of three songs.
"바람 {Wish}"
Tracks:
1. 바람아 불어라 (Dear Wind)
2. Ever After
3. Thanks to
Lyrics of songs are written in style of a letter towards someone. There's a wish in each song and songs have a sorrow tune.
바람아 불어라 has a slower tune. 바람아 불어라 (Dear Wind) is about a woman who is in love with someone who she must let go. She's ready to let him go but still willing to treasure what she has left.
The second track "Ever After" is very sad but flowing and the third track "Thanks To" is a sort of more upbeat and is very catchy. I kind of feel it's sad and happy and like it the most.
