Group SEVENTEEN's new unit Dokyeom X Seungkwan previewed cozy music that will thaw winter's severe cold.
PLEDIS Entertainment Co. released six track samplers from Dokyeom X Seungkwan's mini album 1, "Soyagok," on HYBE Labels' YouTube channel and SEVENTEEN's official social media on Feb. 2. The individual song titles were not revealed, but the diverse genres make the music compelling enough to prompt repeated listening.
The first video tickles the senses with a refreshing band sound. Smooth guitar melodies and hopeful tunes suggest a pleasant beginning. The second video features retro synthesizers and lively guitar playing that deliver positive energy to listeners.
The following video arouses curiosity with a captivating mood. Sensual electric piano and funky guitar over a groovy rhythm complete a song that showcases Dokyeom X Seungkwan's new charm. The fourth track sampler raises expectations for a classic ballad suited to winter. Sparse but resonant piano infused with grand orchestral playing creates a poignant atmosphere.
In the fifth video, layered instruments unfold to offer a dramatic sense of immersion. The restrained arrangement of the final track sampler is also not to be missed. The beautiful ambience created by sonic space leaves a deep aftertaste. From dazzling mornings to quiet nights, the visuals that portray a day's scenes simply but emotionally heighten anticipation for SEVENTEEN's two main vocalists Dokyeom X Seungkwan's expression of "ordinary love."
Meanwhile, Dokyeom X Seungkwan will release "Soyagok" at 6 p.m. on the 12th. The album unpacks every moment between meetings and partings through the duo's emotional storytelling. The new record is expected to capture various moments within the most ordinary love—from ennui and discord to new beginnings—and elicit deep sympathy and emotional engagement from anyone.
