Chungha lived in Dallas, Texas for eight years before returning to South Korea to become a singer. As a result, she is able to speak both English and Korean. She auditioned for YG Entertainment and was a former JYP Entertainment trainee[3] before joining M&H Entertainment in 2016. She had trained for three years before debuting, and had been dancing for 6–7 years.
On December 21, M&H Entertainment confirmed that Kim Chung-ha will be debuting as a solo artist in the beginning of 2017 after wrapping up I.O.I's promotions. On April 21, 2017, Chungha released "월화수목금토일 (Week)" as a pre-release single for her debut album. On June 7, she released her first extended play Hands On Me. The title track "Why Don't You Know (feat. 넉살)" is a tropical house song about unrequited love. The mini peaked at #8 on the Gaon Albums Chart.
Over the course of the last few months of 2017, Chungha teased her second extended play. On January 17, 2018, she released her second extended play OFFSET and title track "Roller Coaster".

넌 나의 곁으로 (all the time)
Warning warning 왜 이리 서투니
널 내게 맡겨봐 봐 ah
시간의 흐름조차 까맣게
지워버린 밤 지워버린 밤 nana
감았던 두 눈마저 하얗게
다가와 내게 이 순간
Stay tonight
Stay tonight, stay
By my side
Stay tonight
Stay tonight, stay
이 밤 향기에 또 취하고
멈추지 않아도 돼 sta-a-a-ay
더는 움직일 수 없도록
깊숙이 스며들어
Stay with me, ooh

Tell me what you wanna do
Run away or stay toni-ah-tonight

The lyrics to 청하 (CHUNG HA)'s song Stay Tonight convey a sense of desire and longing for someone to stay by the singer's side. The opening lines, "I feel you 빛과 어둠 그 사이" (I feel you, between light and darkness), suggest the presence of a significant other who provides comfort and stability in the singer's life. The repeated plea for the person to stay, "Stay tonight, stay by my side," signifies a deep emotional attachment and a reluctance to let go.
The lyrics also express a willingness to surrender oneself to this intense connection. The line "멈추지 않아도 돼 sta-a-a-ay" (Even if you don't stop, stay) implies that the singer is willing to remain in this state of intoxication and vulnerability, completely immersed in the night's allure. The repeated use of the word "tonight" emphasizes the urgency and intensity of the emotions being felt.

FYI:
-For that dance track Chungha hired a LGBTQ male dance group, called comingout.kr (ig)
-There are 6 male dancers and 10 female dancers (Names on the comments).
-Rian Choi is the main choreographer for stay tonight and She is in the Mv.
-Ran the other choreographer, She is known as the mother of voguing and She is in the Mv too.
-Stay Tonight is just a pre-release to promote Chungha's first full album.
- 👆 that is why she isn't promoting st on music shows.
- Play wasn't supposed to be on music shows either but it was a last minute decision to have one week of promotions.
@aisha6849
what amazes me so much is that chungha’s company isn’t even in the big 3 yet they are giving her a high budget pre-release, a SECOND pre-release, a FULL ALBUM, AND a comeback. they really are giving chungha the best she deserves. other company’s need to take notes and treat their idols the way MNH treats chungha.

@@aizen3347 she wasn't crying about not getting tired, she cried because of the overwhelming support and love she recieved during her past comebacks

“Bicycle” is great but “Stay Tonight” is expensive af, iconic choreo, celebration of feminism and a god tier song.
@ppjskh
“Bicycle” is definitely more general public friendly, I personally love all her pre-releases though! Play is also amazing. ✨

@@ppjskh no it's doing well in Korea it's not a Kpop type of song typically. It would do more well in the US
