Lee Sang-eun

Lee Sang-eun, born March 12, 1970, also known by her stage name Lee Tzsche, is a South Korean singer-songwriter who debuted in 1988 and has since released 15 full-length albums. Born on March 12, 1970, she first gained attention for her unisex style and unique musical presence after winning the Rookie Artist Award at the 1988 Golden Disc Awards. However, feeling disillusioned with the entertainment industry, she took a break and traveled to Japan and the U.S. to study art, which greatly influenced her second phase as a musician. Her breakthrough came with Slow Days (1991), a minimalist album that captured youthful introspection. Lee continued to experiment with different genres, including R&B and house, as seen in her album Begin (1992). By 1993, she showcased musical maturity in her self-titled album Lee Sang-eun. She gained further recognition in Japan, working with notable musicians like Takeda Hajimu, and expanded her sound with the critically acclaimed Gongmudohaga(1995). As Lee Tzsche, she targeted global audiences with albums like Lee-Tzsche (1998) and Asian Prescription (1999), recorded with American musicians and featuring songs in English. Her later albums, such as Romantopia (2005), We Are Made of Stardust (2010), and fLoW (2019), reflect her evolution as a seasoned artist with deep lyrical and musical resonance.
