Singer Evan (EVAN) revealed a documentary that captures the intense production process of his debut single, showing his passionate dedication to music.
Evan on the 18th released the documentary
The video sensually depicts the story of the single's tracks being completed through blood, sweat and tears. Evan revealed that the title track "Ride or Die" was born in a single session for his solo debut and introduced a beloved anecdote, saying, "This song contains all of my energy and the emotions I feel. I wanted to convey a positive message that ultimately hope and a happy ending remain."
When the title track was finally decided to be "Ride or Die" at the listening session, Evan showed fierce passion by immediately holding an additional songwriting session that day to work on "Overflow" to perfect the album's quality. He confessed about this song, "Anyone can go through difficult processes in life. I wrote the lyrics thinking that the most important thing then is not to be discouraged but to get up and keep moving forward."
Evan ran tirelessly throughout the entire single production process—from lyric writing and recording to breathless live and dance practice and music video filming—showing a "passion mansour"-level performance. Realizing his pure passion for music and the stage at every moment, Evan also expressed a moving wish: "I want to continue to feel this same intense emotion even 10 years from now."
The documentary released that day concluded powerfully with the intense live stage of "Ride or Die" and the narrative-laden phrase "This is only the beginning. EVAN's story continues.(이것은 단지 시작일 뿐, 에반의 이야기는 계속된다)", raising expectations for Evan's future musical path.
Meanwhile, having successfully completed promotions for the digital single "RIDE OR DIE" released last month, Evan will begin his full-scale global run starting with "2026 SBS Gayo Daejeon" on Aug. 9, followed by the special program "Spotlight" at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles on the 14th (local time), "KCON LA 2026" on the 16th and "2026 TIMA" on the 23rd, performing on major stages at home and abroad.
