Her album drew features from several artists including BEG member Narsha, Sunny of Girls' Generation (SNSD), and rapper Rude Paper. Rude Paper was found out in two years of Miryo's searching for her partner rapper in famous clubs in Hongdae and Gangnam areas.

Her new album includes such songs as "Party Rock", "Dirty", "I Love You I Love You", "Revenger", and "Let Go".

Miryo's autobiographical lyrics are included in her songs.

Miryo revealed that her title song "Dirty" was based on her real love experience.

She said that "Dirty" is about a girl who commits a suicide as a way of punishing a former boyfriend who abandoned her for another woman.

But Miryo added that she is such a positive person that she never think about committing suicide.

K-pop sources in Seoul predict that BEG's JeA and Miryo might soon split solo, breaking from the girl group.

As recently as a month ago 31-year-old sexy Miryo confessed that she is so lonely and she wants to fall in love with someone in 2012.

"One of my goals this year was to release my solo album and I achieved the goal", Miroy said, "Another goal I want to accomplish this year is to fall in love with someone"

At the local interview, Miryo revealed what types of man she wants.

She said that she likes a kind and sweet man. She also said that she doesn't care if he is an entertainer or not.
