SOOHYUN
U-KISS’ SOOHYUN will be making a solo comeback with his first mini album “COUNT ON ME.”

SOOHYUN will be releasing his first mini album “COUNT ON ME” on August 1. It is the first mini-album to be released as a solo album after 14 years since his debut.
SOOHYUN has gathered his own color with his unique explosive singing ability and sweet voice through various solo songs such as “Snowman” and “You” as well as U-KISS albums.
This first mini-album “COUNT ON ME” is an album in which SOOHYUN, who is making a leap forward as a solo artist, has put all his charm into it.
We highlighted three expectations that make SOOHYUN’s new treasure even more special.
# Switch to solo artist “Soohyun”
SOOHYUN, who debuted as a member of U-KISS in 2008, was chosen as the idol group’s representative vocalist due to his stable vocal skills as the leader and lead singer of U-KISS. If you have been looking for suitable music for the group as a leader during your career with U-KISS, through this solo album, various genres and musical styles that you have wanted to express have been included in the album.
As this is the first solo mini album to be released after 14 years since his debut, he tried to capture his own musical world as a soloist. It will satisfy listeners around the world who have been waiting for his music, as it is an album that shows his growth from U-KISS‘ “Soohyun” to musical solo artist “Soohyun.”
# Suhyun’s “Soju Song” is born
The title song of this album is “소주의 요정“, which has a unique name. It’s a song with a unique setting that compares the process of a man falling in love with the emotional change he undergoes while drinking soju. Notably, the song is also a tribute to the title “샴푸의 요정“, a masterpiece by the band The light and the salt.
Earlier, SOOHYUN released some of his new songs through video teasers and a medley, raising expectations by combining SOOHYUN’s smooth, steady vocals and witty lyrics. The neutrally phrased lyrics, “Love, bitter, sweet and vertiginous,” stimulate curiosity.
# Soohyun OPPA musical challenge, album of various genres
In this album, SOOHYUN, including the title track “소주의 요정“, features various genres such as rock, country, and blues within the album, showing a broad musical spectrum. It contains “Wake up,” which features SOOHYUN’s autobiographical story, and “Marry me,” a ballad that expresses the shaky feelings and situations of the man who is about to propose.
The album notably contains the duet “My friend” sung with Niel from the group Teen Top. It’s a song that reminds us of the growth process of SOOHYUN and Niel, who debuted and worked together at the same time, with SOOHYUN’s refreshing and cool voice and Niel’s unique voice coming together to give us the feeling of listening to a happy childhood story.
SOOHYUN will be back solo on August 1.
