EXO Chanyeol to Release New Solo Album Upside Down on August 25
Nearly a year after his solo debut, EXO’s Chanyeol is set to return with his second mini-album Upside Down, reflecting a more mature perspective on life. The album captures a wide range of emotions, allowing listeners to experience both the radiant and darker moments of life in one record.
Highlight Tracks: High & Dry and 123 Dance
High & Dry is a slow-tempo pop track influenced by country and pop rock, blending acoustic guitar with pedal steel guitar for a warm yet wistful mood. Its lyrics depict the self-reflection of modern individuals seeking their true selves amid emptiness and lethargy.
On the other hand, 123 Dance brings a vintage yet rugged texture through old-school drums and lively synth bass. Chanyeol’s dynamic rap flow pairs with uplifting lyrics about staying positive and giving one’s best, inspired by those who support him.
Sold-Out Anniversary Concert
To mark his first solo debut anniversary, Chanyeol will hold CHANYEOL [Upside Down : Sound Stage] on August 31 at Yes24 Live Hall. Tickets sold out shortly after release, underscoring the strong anticipation and support from fans.
