Kim Hyun-jung (Korean: 김현정, born April 4, 1976) is a Korean pop singer. She is well known as the "Long-legged singer." With the experience of performing in a heavy metal band, Kim made her debut as a female solo singer Kim debuted as a dance music singer with "Legend." The song <Breakup with Her> was a fast-tempo song with strong beats that shot Kim quickly to the top. The song <Lonely Love> was also a great hit. Since her debut, Kim Hyun-jung has succeeded in releasing great songs, usually dance numbers.[1]

In 1997, Kim catapulted to stardom almost instantly after her debut, with her distinctively high voice and slim figure - the ordinary image of a female Korean singer by today’s standards, but a rarity at the time.[2]
