Ten has previously released several solo tracks, mainly through SM Entertainment’s SM Station project, the first being 2017’s ‘Dream in a Dream’. Other solo songs include ‘Paint Me Naked’ and ‘Birthday’. However, the upcoming record will mark his official solo debut.
In support of the upcoming release, SM Entertainment previously announced that Ten will be going on his first ‘1001’ Asia fan-con tour. The tour will kick off on February 17 in Seoul, before heading to Bangkok, Hong Kong and Jakarta in the following months.
Ten made his debut as a member of NCT in 2016 as part of its rotating NCT U sub-unit with bandmates Jaehyun, Taeyong, Doyoung and Mark. The singer went on to participate in several NCT U releases, before debuting as a member of WayV, the group’s China-based sub unit in January 2019.
In other NCT news, SM announced yesterday (January 25) that NCT 127 leader Taeyong will also be releasing solo music in February. While the agency has yet to share further details, the upcoming project will be his first since his debut mini-album ‘SHALALA’ dropped last June.
