Zia Returns with a Soul-Stirring Remake of ‘Craving You Madly’

South Korean ballad powerhouse Zia is back to tug at our heartstrings once again with a breathtaking remake of the emotional ballad ‘Craving You Madly’. Released at 6 PM KST on June 20 via major digital music platforms, this new version showcases Zia’s unparalleled vocal nuance and deep emotional delivery.

‘Craving You Madly’ is originally a 2015 self-composed track by Yoo Haejun and was featured in the OST of the Korean drama ‘The Bird That Doesn’t Cry’. Previously covered by vocalist Hwang Garam, the song received widespread acclaim—and now, with Zia’s reinterpretation, it’s primed to resonate with an even broader audience.

With her signature style, Zia elevates the sorrowful ballad to new emotional heights. The track flows gently from a restrained prelude to a cathartic crescendo, guided by her soaring vocals and rich tonality. Her expression of heartache and longing after separation weaves a compelling narrative that is both intimate and universal.

Known for her consistently powerful performances in the K-Ballad genre, Zia once again proves why she is considered one of Korea’s top female vocalists. Fans and critics alike are lauding ‘Craving You Madly’ as another premium-quality remake under her name.

Zia’s past hits include emotionally-driven tracks such as ‘Love.. What Is That?’, ‘Don’t Want to Love’, ‘Was It Because I Didn’t Love?’, and ‘Let’s Have a Drink’. Her most recent release, ‘Terribly Heartbreaking Love’, captured hearts just last month, solidifying her role as a torchbearer for emotive Korean music.

With each release, Zia continues to define the essence of K-Ballads for a new generation, delivering raw emotion with every note.
