In cinematic jargon, “Noir” is used to describe Hollywood crime fiction. The French word is commonly translated as “dark film”.
Yunho hopes to ride on this concept to dish out his music in a cinematic manner. In a Korean press release, his entertainment label, SM Entertainment also revealed that fans can expect to see “the true and deepest emotions of a man through various genres”.
He officially made his debut as a soloist only in 2019 with futuristic album “True Colors”. But the industrial veteran, nicknamed one of the Kings of K-pop, is definitely a force to be reckoned with.
The 34 year-old soloist had just made appearances at the SM Entertainment Cultural Humanity show, but is also dabbling in variety programme “I Live Alone”. He appears alongside bandmate Changmin, showing viewers what goes on in their daily life, unfiltered.
The tracklist of Yunho’s second mini album “Noir” was revealed.
- Thank U (Title)
- Eeny Meeny
- La Rosa (ft. Shin Ye-eun)
- Time Machine
- Loco (House Party)
- Need You Right Now
