Generasian is the fourth extended play by South Korean singer Lim Kim. Released on October 15, 2019, by Universal Music Korea and Lim Company, the extended play is Kim's first independent release since Simple Mind (2015), and subsequently her first since she left Mystic Entertainment in 2016. A dominant electronica record with worldbeat incorporation, Generasian finds Kim "exploring and centering" her identity as an Asian woman, further growing away from her previous musical direction.[2] Preceded by a non-album single "SAL-KI" on May 24, 2019, the extended play spawned two singles, "Yellow" on October 15, and "Mong" on February 28, 2020.[3]
Upon its release, Generasian received critical acclaim for showcasing Kim's artistic growth and the extended play's Oriental influence.[4][5] Though it remained uncharted, both the extended play and "SAL-KI" earned the singer a total of five nominations at the 2020 Korean Music Awards, tying with Baek Ye-rin and Jannabi as the most nominated acts of the year. The extended play eventually won the award of Best Dance & Electronic Album, while "SAL-KI" won the award of Best Dance & Electronic Song.[6][7]
