A former Cross Gene member, Shin Won-ho takes a step as an artist.
Shin Won-ho released his first mini album ONE at noon on the 3rd through various music platforms. At the same time, the track and music video for the title song Warzone were also released.
The title song Warzone is a pop number with a distinctive structure that depicts lovers healing each other in the process of hurting and reconciling. On the surface it is a story related to love, but beneath that surface it contains a message about "what is true peace." However, unlike that theme, it draws attention for being a song with a light, familiar melody and tracks that naturally seep into listeners and can be heard comfortably.
"I fight in a warzone/ 네 눈물이 닿은 순간/ 녹아버린 상처/ Though I wanna do it so fine"
The lyrics convey that even in fierce moments a lover's single tear can melt wounds, and ultimately the singer feels a desire to do better.
The music video also features multiple couples sharing everyday moments. As a witness watching several couples, Shin Won-ho's partner appears beside him, and the sight of Shin Won-ho smiling as he is moved by "true peace" captures attention.
Marking his 15th anniversary since debut this year, Shin Won-ho has met the public through various activities including his work with Cross Gene, drama, musical theater and advertising. Under the name Shin Won-ho, who showed many colors, he expressed in the new release ONE the meaning of ONE as representing himself, encompassing all the experiences he has faced, the connections he has made, and, above all, the fans who support him.
With this album, Shin Won-ho takes the first step toward a new phase as an artist. Unlike his previously released songs, he produced the entire process himself from song selection to recording, completing it while fully conveying his concerns during that process.
Meanwhile, Shin Won-ho's new song Warzone can be listened to at noon today (the 4th) through various music platforms.
