The member of the group BTOB, LEE MIN HYUK (HUTA), has started the countdown to his solo comeback, sporting this summer a frantic racing energy that knows no limits.
On July 6, his agency BTOB COMPANY unexpectedly shared on its official SNS a spoiler video of LEE MIN HYUK‘s new single album “TEMPERATURE”, raising the expectation of music fans around the world to its peak.
The spoiler video that lifted the veil opens by illuminating a black sports bag that reveals a heavy presence in the darkness. On the front of the bag, a sensory logo representing “Ko”, a recorded song of the new single, the checkered flag symbolizing the finale of a race, and a flame-like metallic typography logo patch for the title song “Icy & spicy” are engraved side by side, capturing the eye. Added to this are patches with bold phrases such as “Race mode”, “No brakes” and “No free practice in life”, announcing the exhilarating sensation of speed that the new album will offer.
In particular, a silver metal keychain hanging at the bottom left of the bag is filmed in close-up, doubling the tense atmosphere. Centered around the initials plate of the title of the title song “Icy & spicy”, an elaborately designed F1 racing car, a racing helmet, and a pendant in the shape of a jaguar running with agility are revealed one after another, offering an intense visual impact. Then, the unexpected objects that appear at the moment the zipper of the bag opens make fans thrill.
The inside of the bag is filled with black boxing gloves, a protective helmet, and neatly rolled fighting wraps, drawing attention. This is closely linked to the narrative of the fighter concept presented during LEE MIN HYUK‘s EP album “HOOK” released in July last year, adding the organic pleasure of a unique musical universe designed and planned by LEE MIN HYUK himself.
LEE MIN HYUK made his debut with BTOB in 2012 and debuted as a solo artist in 2019, expanding his horizons. Relying on a solid physique, he quickly emerged as a strongman of summer water festivals, receiving great love.
The new single album of LEE MIN HYUK “TEMPERATURE” will be officially released on July 15 at 6 p.m. KST via various online music sites.
