ASTRO member Yoon San-ha is embarking on an unrestrained genre expansion.
Yoon will release his second solo mini-album "CHAMELEON" on the 15th, making a comeback after 11 months. This album, which seeks a 180-degree change compared to the previous one, is expected to showcase the artist Yoon San-ha's new growth with bold musical challenges.
# Hip challenge! Confidence upgrade
The title track "EXTRA VIRGIN" is a hybrid pop track that skillfully combines a country-style chord progression with a heavy hip-hop rhythm, reflecting Yoon San-ha's upgraded confidence. His solid voice, which stretches out refreshing, along with his hip swag, provides a thrilling energy that matches the midsummer vibe.
In a previous commentary video, Yoon noted about this "EXTRA VIRGIN" that "it's a style I haven't tried before. It feels a bit like a mischievous child and has a funky vibe," raising anticipation for the performance and stage. He also pointed out the common traits between himself and a chameleon, saying, "The chameleon changes color according to its surroundings and infiltrates space, which is a characteristic I share. I will show that I can reinterpret any genre in my own color."
# Yoon San-ha, resembling a chameleon, the icon of transformation
Like a chameleon that can freely change its color, Yoon is venturing into an unrestrained genre expansion with this mini-album. He infused his inherent, lethal aura into the self-composed track "AURA," and in the fan song "Love You Like Fools," written for his fans who have supported him for 10 years, he sings the affectionate message, "I will love you like a fool." Through "Bad Mosquito," which captures tension in a dreamy way, and the retro-style "6PM (Nobody's Business)," among a total of five songs of different styles, you can experience Yoon San-ha's colorful ability.
