Singer Taphyun returns with a double single that captures sincere emotions.
On the 16th at 6 p.m., Taphyun's double single "The boy who became an adult" will be released on various online music sites.
Through this album, Taphyun looks back on the time that has passed from the perspective of "the boy who became an adult." He sings about a heart that still wavers and struggles even after becoming an adult, the anxiety faced after growth, and the dreams that remain in the heart despite it all.
The title track of the same name, "The boy who became an adult," is a song that honestly expresses the feelings of thinking things would be better after becoming an adult but, contrary to expectations, becoming more hesitant and easily frightened. It begins with a calm band sound, and guitar, bass and drums organically blend to expand the range of emotion. The lyrics, which acknowledge that although one lives under the name of an adult the boy who was most reckless and brave still exists in the heart, meet Taphyun's calm yet deeply appealing voice and stimulate empathy.
In the title track music video released with the single, Taphyun unfolds an honest story from the perspective of a photographer and observer shooting a graduation album. He records various moments and expressions such as the excitement, trembling, regret and sadness of students about to graduate, capturing different faces and attitudes toward life. Toward the end of the video the camera angle turns toward Taphyun, which naturally leads into the album artwork and is expected to leave a deep impression.
Another included track, "A bouquet of flowers," is a song that conveys a message of support with graduation as its theme. Like the title track, it centers on a band arrangement but emphasizes a plainer, warmer sentiment. The song sings that although flowers quickly wither, within them are heartfelt congratulations that words cannot fully express, gratitude for enduring well, and support for a new beginning.
Meanwhile, Taphyun has been active with various songs such as "Tell Me That You Love Me", "Horangsuwolga", "T's romance" and "My world is filled with you." With this year's double single as a start, expectations are high for what music he will show next.
Taphyun's double single "The boy who became an adult" can be listened to on various online music sites from 6 p.m. on the 16th. Ahead of the release, the school tour stage of this new song, which Taphyun performed for high school seniors, will be released on his official YouTube channel.
