Singer Ha Hyun Sang successfully concluded an archive live and is making a comeback with his second full-length album "New Boat."
Ha Hyun Sang held the archive live "2026 HA HYUN SANG Archive Live 'New Boat'" (hereinafter "New Boat") at Olympic Hall in Olympic Park, Songpa-gu, Seoul, from the 3rd to the 5th.
"New Boat" was a solo concert held under the same name as Ha Hyun Sang's second full-length album released after about three years. Within a variety of set lists that captured the season of spring, Ha Hyun Sang traced back his music and time like a record, delivering deep emotion and lingering impressions.
In particular, Ha Hyun Sang premiered nine recorded tracks, including the title track "Odyssey" from the second full-length album "New Boat," drawing strong responses from fans. The showcase proved Ha Hyun Sang's expanded musical spectrum with a feast of stages that included collaborations with a baritone and English-language vocal performances, revealing various musical experiments.
Active communication with fans also stood out. In "RADIO RADIO," Ha Hyun Sang went to the center of the floor, and in "Boy's Room" he visited the second-floor seats, making eye contact and greeting each fan warmly, using the entire space as a stage. Despite being a new song, the addictive "RADIO RADIO" prompted fans to immediately sing along in response.
Additionally, Ha Hyun Sang enhanced the atmosphere with subtle fragrances in the venue and maximized immersion with a band live consisting of bass, guitar, drums, keyboard and synthesizer. Ha Hyun Sang showed abundant love for his fans, such as briefly performing fan-requested songs on the spot.
After completing the archive live, Ha Hyun Sang said, "Thank you for being the first listeners of 'New Boat.' I hope you will remember the feeling and the mood of today for a long time. Thank you for willingly joining me on my new journey, and I will continue to enjoy making music."
Ha Hyun Sang will release his second full-length album "New Boat" through various music platforms at 6 p.m. today (the 6th) and will begin comeback activities.
As the album title "New Boat" suggests, Ha Hyun Sang begins a new voyage toward a wider musical sea beyond familiar routes. The title track "Odyssey" symbolizes the identity of this journey, delivering a sense of liberation with bright, refreshing sounds and melodic narratives expressed through Ha Hyun Sang's singular vocals, leading listeners into a new sensory world.
Ha Hyun Sang led the work on all the songs included on the new record and realized his musical grammar in a more multifaceted and novel way. Beyond simple genre expansion, he wove the distinct colors of each track into a single flow, and although each song carries different grammars, they ultimately converge into one voice, "Ha Hyun Sang."
The second full-length album "New Boat" is expected to become a milestone that announces the new starting point of the musical journey Ha Hyun Sang will unfold going forward.
