It will be available on global music sites such as Melon, YouTube and Spotify starting on the 2nd.
"四月的漂流 (April Drift)" is a bedroom pop song that delicately captures the emotional changes that flow as the seasons pass.

In addition, he released the Chinese EP STARDUST, on which he is credited on every track, and has been showcasing his creative abilities in various ways, including presenting the THE 8 Contemporary ART project, which expresses his emotions and perspectives as art.

Before that, on the 4th and 5th he will hold SEVENTEEN WORLD TOUR [NEW_] ENCORE with SEVENTEEN members at Incheon Asiad Main Stadium, spectacularly concluding a seven-month world tour.
