Simply yesterday, I wrote a few solo monitor from Infinite’s Sungyeol however did so primarily out of loyalty. The music itself did little or no for me. Flash ahead twenty 4 hours and we’re in the very same boat. This time, it’s the solo debut (!) from one among Golden Little one’s major vocalists, Choi Sungyun — in any other case identified underneath the moniker Y. Together with many of the group’s members, Sungyun left the sinking ship that’s Woollim Leisure and has now signed with smaller company Oak Village.
For a handful of years, Golden Little one have been my final group energetic in Ok-pop. I nonetheless suppose they’re extremely underrated and boast the strongest discography of their technology. I like Sungyun’s voice, particularly when paired with the complimentary (but contrasting) tone of bandmate Joochan. However as all the time, I’m a music individual. If the music itself isn’t working for me, no quantity of non-public bias will pull it over the road. Sungyun performs Aurora fantastically and it’s fantastic to listen to him again on this realm, however the monitor itself is sort of boring and generic. There’s nothing right here I haven’t heard 1,000,000 instances earlier than. It follows the tried-and-true template established by so many idols-turned-soloists. I don’t perceive why these acts can’t re-emerge with one thing extra fascinating and idiosyncratic. Sungyun’s is apparent and calls for stronger materials.
