I maintain placing “(Victon)” after Han Seungwoo’s identify every time writing about his music, however it could be time to let that tag go. Given the state of the group’s contract renewals, it appears unlikely that they’d be coming again any time quickly. As an alternative, it’s time to concentrate on solo initiatives and Seungwoo already has a strong catalog of solo music to his identify. New title monitor Cease It sees him embracing his internal rocker.
A band sound has develop into an surprising development this 12 months, maybe buoyed by the unimaginable chart reemergence of DAY6 in 2024. Everybody — from idol teams to soloists — has appeared to find guitars in 2025. That is largely an excellent growth, although many of those songs are inclined to take away Okay-pop’s distinctive sense of experimentation in favor of a extra simple OST-esque sound that isn’t notably thrilling.
This about sums up Cease It. The tune chugs alongside simply as you’d count on one thing of this nature to unfold. The instrumental is cut-and-paste pop/rock fare, by no means making any attention-grabbing or distinctive decisions. The melodies observe swimsuit, providing the vaguely anthemic heft that befits the opening or ending credit of a drama. I’m happy how upbeat Cease It‘s power is, and Seungwoo works properly on this setting. However with so many songs of this style being launched each month, there’s nothing about Cease It that has me dashing again for extra.
