"Violeta" ( Korean: 비올레타; RR: biolleta) is a song recorded by South Korean–Japanese girl group Iz*One, released on April 1, 2019 by Off the Record Entertainment as the lead single from their second extended play (EP) Heart*Iz. [3]
"Violeta" is a pop track with tropical house beats and a future bass intro, inspired by the story "The Happy Prince" lyrically. [1] [4] It is described by Jeff Benjamin of Billboard as having "a color and floral theme as the ladies try to conjure and coax a lover into opening up to them like a flower on the verge of blooming". [5] It offers a more uptempo and choreography-focused than the previous Korean song " La Vie en Rose". Jack Wannan of LWOS Life praised the song as "[an] amazing production". [6]
In South Korea the song peaked at number 18. On the K-Pop Hot 100 the song peaked at number five making it the group's highest charting song on the chart. On the US World chart the song peaked at number 8 becoming their second top 10 hit. Despite being a Korean single the song was successful in Japan too peaking at number 13 on the Billboard Japan Hot 100.
The music video for "Violeta" was released on April 1, 2019. [7] Directed by Digipedi, the video gives a "vibrant and nature-themed imagery [...] featuring meadow flowers, glowing prisms, splashing water and more aesthetically pleasing designs". [5]
As at March 22, 2021, the music video achieves more than 70 million views. [8] Off the Record released a special video in commemoration of achieving 40 million views. [9]
