Singer Jang Na-ra will release a special edition album recorded in Chinese on March 21.

Entitled “Flying High,” the album includes songs which were featured in a Chinese drama in which Jang starred, and comes bundled with her “Kung Fu” album released in China last year, a DVD of six music videos from her first and second Chinese albums, and a mini photo album with new pictures of her.

Her agency, Warner Music, said that the album is a gift for her Korean fans to express her regret for not actively performing in Korea because she has focused her efforts on China. “The title “Flying High,” which Jang herself created, expresses her hope of becoming a towering star in Asia,” it added.

(I want this special edition!!!)
