Cho Yong, famously known as Ali (stylized as: ALi) (Korean: 김이나), is a South Korean singer-songwriter famous for her work on Korean pop music in the early twenty-first century. Following her debut in 2009, she is primarily known for her strong vocals and her time as a contestant on the KBS program Immortal Song 2
Career
Following her debut in 2009, she had already gained notoriety for her appearances on music shows, most notably Immortal Song 2 on KBS2. She also worked as a professor in applied musical arts at the Seoul Technical Arts College. [1]
ALi released her first album SOULri in December 2011 [2] which was strangely two years after her official debut. One released track, "Na Young", garnered immediate controversy as it lyrics referenced a case of sexual assault that had been a very public case in South Korea, with many detractors criticizing the song to be insensitive to its subject. ALi would later address this controversy by admitting that she herself was a survivor of sexual assault[3].
Following the release of her album, she held her first independent concert. [4]
