NCT Mark to Pre-Release ‘+82 Pressin’ Featuring Haechan: A Showcase of Friendship
NCT’s Mark is set to pre-release his new single ‘+82 Pressin’ (Feat. Haechan)’ on March 19 at 6 PM KST, offering fans a taste of his upcoming solo debut album ‘The Firstfruit’.
Song Details
The new track ‘+82 Pressin’ is a hip-hop song featuring an attractive bass line that blends a repetitive whistling riff with VOX samples. The marching snare, solid kick drum, and fast-paced vocals create a dynamic atmosphere. Mark personally wrote the lyrics, cleverly incorporating Korea’s country code +82 to express the confidence of himself and Haechan as Seoul-based artists.
Music Video Concept
The accompanying music video tells the story of Mark and Haechan as agents bringing emotion and color to the gray city of Seoul. Paying homage to the film ‘Sin City’, the video employs static camera movements and graphic novel-inspired visuals to enhance viewer immersion.
Album Context
‘The Firstfruit’, Mark’s first solo album, is structured in sections representing four cities significant to his journey: Toronto, New York, Vancouver, and Seoul. ‘+82 Pressin’ is the first track in the Seoul section and marks the first duet between Mark and Haechan, making it particularly meaningful as it represents their shared journey from Canada to pursuing their dreams in Seoul.
Release Information
The full album ‘The Firstfruit’ is scheduled for release on April 7, 2025, and is currently available for pre-order at various online and offline music stores. This pre-release not only showcases Mark’s solo artistry but also highlights the strong friendship and musical synergy between NCT members, promising fans a deeper look into Mark’s personal musical style and life experiences across different cities.
