Pre-debut

In 2012, Lee Hi finished as the runner-up on K-pop Star Season 1,[4] against Park Ji-min and was eventually signed by YG Entertainment CEO, Yang Hyun-suk.[5]

On May 12, 2012, it was announced that she would be debuting with a girl group called SuPearls (which originally consisted of Michelle Lee, Park Ji-min, Lee Seung-joo, and Lee Jung-mi) which was originally formed during K-pop Star Season 1 and signed to YG. She was set to replace Ji-min who decided to sign with JYP Entertainment after winning.[6] Following Ha-yi's successful debut as a solo artist, her company made a sudden announcement on February 13, 2013, that her anticipated girl-group, SuPearls, will no longer be continuing as an ensemble and that the other remaining members have been dropped. She would instead continue as a solo artist.[7][8]

Before her debut, Ha-yi released her first song under YG Entertainment on which she collaborated with Epik High; it was entitled "It's Cold" and was released on October 8, 2012.[9]

Lee Hi's full album First Love debuted on March 28, 2013.[18] "Rose" is the first song released by Lee Hi to feature her not just singing, but rapping as well.[18]

It was revealed in December 2013 that Lee Hi would debut under a new sub-unit with Park Bom entitled "BH", which is also an acronym for BOM&HI. The unit released the single "All I Want For Christmas Is You", a cover of Mariah Carey's song, on December 20.
