Earlier this year, CLC singer Sorn cooked up a sweet, heartwarming melody with Hongseok of PENTAGON, bringing the childhood friends-turned-lovers trope alive in their collaboration single “Crazy Stupid Lovers.”
Gone are the days of puppy love. It is all about the allure of forbidden love with something that is so “BAD4US.”
Teaming up with the mega-viral hitmaker of the song “Like I Do”, – J. Taylor – the Thai K-pop sensation, has upped the ante by going after something that “feels good despite [you] knowing it’s bad for you.”
The ambitious single release hit streaming platforms on July 26, 2024, worldwide, and it is being touted as the first step towards Sorn’s fresh-in-the-making upcoming album, which is slated to come out later this year.
As confirmed by the international pop artist’s management label, WILD Group, “BAD4US” is now available on all digital platforms. It essentially celebrates a diverse crossover of talents, especially since Sorn herself is a K-pop idol of Thai origin, while J. Taylor is a Melbourne-born Filipino artist.

“When I was working on this song with my production team, I knew I had to have J. Taylor on this one with me,” Sorn relayed via her record label. “His vocals really took this song to the next level, and I’m so excited to be working with him.”
As fans will keenly notice as one of their first takeaways, Sorn undoubtedly switched the paddle with her latest release. Compared to her loving, effervescent personality, as seen in “Crazy Stupid Lovers,” “BAD4US” marks the beginning of a new musical chapter with more mature tonality.
The CLC member is no stranger to experimenting with numerous concepts, an artistic trademark that she’s clearly swearing by on her soloist agenda as well.
