"Impossible" is a song recorded by South Korean boy group Riize. It was released on April 18, 2024, through SM Entertainment and distributed by Kakao Entertainment and RCA Records, as the fourth single and was later included as the third track on the group's EP Riizing.

Background and release

[edit]

On April 3, 2024, SM Entertainment announced that Riize would be releasing their first EP in June 2024. It was also announced that the single "Impossible" would be the fourth pre-released song of the group and was scheduled to be released on April 18.[1][2] On April 15, SM released the music video preview and teaser on Riize's social media accounts which was shot at Lisbon, Portugal.[3] On April 18, the single was released along with its music video.[4]

Composition

[edit]

"Impossible" was written and composed by David Wilson, James Abrahart, and Dewain Whitmore Jr., with Wilson handling arrangement, and Hwang Yu-bin of songwriting collective XYXX contributing Korean-language lyrics.[5]

The song is a house dance which stands out with its rhythmic house beats and mysterious synthesizer. The lyrics contain the message that even if everyone thinks it is impossible, the moment they move forward together toward the same dream, the impossible becomes possible, and that there is no longer anything impossible.[6]
