New of The Boyz put out his first self-written song “0329 from.24,” said agency IST Entertainment Friday.
Through the song the idol singer expressed his gratitude for the love he has received from fans and wrote a letter before the release of the song to elaborate.
“There have been many times I was lonely and sad but thanks to you I could be a happy 24-year-old. I made this song hoping that The B could get what little consolation whenever you are overwhelmed by loneliness,” he wrote. The B is the name of the band’s official fandom.
He is a member of The Boyz, an 11-member act that debuted in 2017. Earlier this month, the band performed at a concert with a live audience, almost three years since its previous event. It also gifted fans a song, titled “Candles,” to mark its fourth debut anniversary. Members New, Q, Sunwoo and Eric participated in writing the lyrics.
