The air is buzzing with anticipation as the legendary Heize and Giriboy embark on their fifth collaboration, promising to unleash yet another wave of their undeniable musical magic!
A Timeless Synergy: Heize and Giriboy’s Latest Chapter
On the 29th at 6 PM KST, Heize and Giriboy will unveil their highly anticipated collaborative mini-album (EP) with ‘Unfit’ as the enthralling title track. This deeply personal EP features a total of four tracks where these two incredible artists pour their hearts into every note, including ‘DDUK,’ ‘Frozen Season,’ and ‘Overlapping Acquaintance,’ alongside the evocative title song.
Unpacking ‘Unfit’: A Tale of Fated Endings
‘Unfit’ is an R&B hip-hop ballad that masterfully captures the profound themes of “the mysterious allure of separation, where one is drawn in precisely because it won’t work out,” and “a relationship that was love, but not the right answer.” It’s a narrative woven with raw emotion, further deepened by both Heize and Giriboy‘s direct participation in crafting its heartfelt lyrics and composition.
A Five-Part Harmony: Recapping Their Journey
This momentous release marks the fifth time Heize and Giriboy have lent their unique voices and artistic spirits to a project. Their exquisite ensemble has consistently captivated K-pop fans, leaving an indelible mark with each release:
- 🎶 June 2019: Giriboy‘s ‘Traffic Control (Feat. Heize)’ – A captivating start.
- 🥺 July 2019: Heize‘s ‘We don’t talk together (Feat. Giriboy) (Prod. SUGA)’ – A fan-favorite for its poignant melody.
- 💘 October 2020: Giriboy‘s ‘Smoke (With Heize)’ – Adding layers of emotional depth.
- 🎬 June 2022: Track 3, ‘I Don’t Lie (Feat. Giriboy),’ from Heize‘s second full album ‘Undo’ – Showcasing their evolving connection.
More Than Just Features: A Deepening Creative Bond
Reuniting after approximately 3 years and 7 months, the two artists not only contributed to the lyrics and composition of ‘Unfit’ but also ‘DDUK’ and ‘Overlapping Acquaintance,’ and the lyrics for ‘Frozen Season.’ Their renewed collaboration infuses these songs’ messages with profound authenticity, demonstrating a truly collaborative spirit that elevates their shared artistic vision.
Heize and Giriboy: Shining Bright Individually and Together
Last year, Heize graced us with her tenth mini-album, ‘LOVE VIRUS Pt.1,’ and its title track ‘Love Virus (Feat. I.M)’ on November 27, showcasing an even deeper musical palette. She continued to enchant fans by unveiling the digital single ‘Even if’ on December 31, 2025, which beautifully amplified her unique sensibility and vocal charm as she wrapped up the year.
Furthermore, Heize connected with fans through the ‘2025 Heize Concert [Heize City: LOVE VIRUS],’ held from December 26 to 28 last year at Myunghwa Live Hall in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul. In a heartwarming display of their enduring friendship, Giriboy even made a special guest appearance at this concert!
Meanwhile, Giriboy has been actively promoting since releasing his 11th full-length album with ‘Paper Boat’ as its title track last April, consistently delivering his unique sound.
This collaboration feels like a destined reunion, each track weaving a narrative that truly captures the bittersweet essence of love and parting. It’s a profound listening experience that deepens with every repeat, reminding us why their combined artistry resonates so deeply.
