It is not a harmony of six people, but it is expected to prove that a melody filled alone can be so beautiful. This is the story of Lee Chang-seop, who opened his second act as a solo artist, not a member of BTOB.

Lee Chang-seop will release a new report and meet with fans on this day. The new album is Lee Chang-seop's first solo album and first full-length album in six years, and it is more than the first new release after leaving his agency Cube Entertainment to move to Fantagio in November last year.



In the sense that the new agency is announcing the newsletter, "The agency told me 'Do whatever you want to do'." They really let me do everything I had to do. Thank you, Fantagio."

Another interest is that he is not a BTOB but a solo singer'Lee Chang-seop. "I realized how heavy a solo singer isLee Chang-seop said, "'It's been a long time since I did a showcase, so I felt good. My heart fluttered behind the stage," he said, expressing his feelings about his solo comeback.

On the other hand, there was also a concern about the recent poor neck health ahead of the solo comeback.

The title song attracts attention with two songs. The first title song '33' (Samsam) is a song about the autobiographical story of 33-year-old Lee Chang-seop who realized while looking back on the past. Lee Chang-seop is the sole lyricist and has to move forward every moment' unravels the message and leads the pop-rock genre with a light and appealing voice between a full guitar sound and a magnificent quire.

Another title song 'OLD TOWN' (Old Town) is a city pop song that expresses memories with Lee Chang-seop's affectionate and bouncy emotions. The combination of musical instrument sounds such as retro piano, funky guitar, and rhythmic drum will provide the pleasure of listening.

Lee Chang-seop says that if "old town" is in the past, "'33" is in the present progressive form"'Old Town' talked about memories and the past, and '33' is a song that lives in the present, recalling another me you'll meet someday."

Lee Chang-seop, who began his solo career in 2018 with the release of his first mini-album 'Mark' (Mark), has built up solid musicality and inner skills with deep tone, singing ability, and excellent genre digestibility. Although Lee Chang-seop has been active as a BTOB and musical actor, expectations are also high for the new report to solidify his solidarity 'Solo Artist'.

It's still amazing that the entire album is filled with my own voice, and Lee Chang-seop said, "'I feel the weight of a solo artist, but it's hard to carry what the six members used to sing alone. Still, I want to experience the process of overcoming the weight.'

Finally, "I want to be remembered as a solo artist who set foot on the ground through this album."I think it's the beginning of a full-fledged solo to prove that you have a bowl even as a solo."

Lee Chang-seop's first solo studio album '1991' will be released on various music sites at 6 p.m. on the 2nd.
