He lifted a speaker or leaned against a locker, making a playful expression. Han flaunted a refined visual. The bandaged hands with stains drew attention in the relaxed atmosphere.
This album 'KARMA' was also created by Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han. The track list includes 'CEREMONY' as the lead track, followed by 'Picheri', 'CREED', 'Mess', 'In My Head', 'Half Time', 'Phoenix', 'Ghost', '0801', 'CEREMONY (Festival Version)', and 'CEREMONY (English Version)', totaling 11 tracks that incorporate the group's narrative and individuality.
