OWLER: Crafting Emotion Through Sound
Seoul-based artist Jong Hyeok Lee, better known as OWLER, is a name that embodies persistence and originality. A fusion of “owl” and “er,” his moniker reflects his nocturnal dedication and sharp focus on crafting a sound that’s uniquely his own. Since 2017, OWLER has released over 150 songs, blending cinematic textures with unpredictable structures to take listeners on deeply emotional journeys.
Inspired by the self-expression of hip-hop and R&B artists, OWLER views music as more than an art form—it’s his way of life. “Writing, composing, listening—it’s how I live,” he says. Known for tracks like “Amazing,” where he embraces a playful side, and “My Boo!” featured in a RENÉ HAÜYNE eyewear ad, OWLER’s catalog defies easy categorization while always staying true to his voice.
An avid Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner and chess player, OWLER draws creative inspiration from these disciplines, incorporating their lessons of strategy and patience into his music. For him, success isn’t just about streams or accolades but about creating songs that provide comfort and connection for listeners worldwide.
“I want my music to be recognized not because it sounds familiar, but because it sounds like me,” he says. With every track, OWLER works to build a legacy of authenticity and innovation that will resonate for generations to come.
