[Solo Singer Special] K-POP & Korean Male Solo Artists

CHOCOLATEKANG NAM

강남 (KANG NAM) – CHOCOLATE (Feat. San E) MV

This is Kangnam, a member of the HIPHOP group M.I.B, which disbanded in 2016.

His over-the-top, flashy persona on variety shows caught on, and he quickly became popular.

Once you see how funny he is on variety shows, the sweet quality of his singing voice is a surprising contrast—that gap is part of his charm.

[STATION] SUNGMIN 성민 ‘낮 꿈 (Day Dream)’ MV

Among Super Junior, Sungmin was active as a multi-talented performer in singing, dancing, and acting, and he has appeared in many musicals as well.

His 2018 solo release is “Sungmin ‘Day Dream (낮 꿈)’.” It’s a somewhat unusual ballad for an idol, depicting the anguish of someone facing a challenge they must confront.

Sungmin himself experienced personal life events—an uncommon marriage for an active idol in 2014, followed by military enlistment—which became challenges to his idol activities and led to his stepping away from Super Junior’s group promotions.

This song inevitably makes you feel that sense of frustration.

XPENOMECO

페노메코 (PENOMECO) – ‘X’ MV

Penomeco is a rapper born in 1992 who debuted in 2014 with the album “Right There.” He has also been involved in writing lyrics for hit K-pop idol songs such as EXO’s “Tempo” and ITZY’s “ICY.” He is said to be friends with fellow hip-hop artist Zico from their middle school days, when they studied abroad in Japan.

He gained attention through appearances on the survival shows “SHOW ME THE MONEY 6” and “BREAKERS.” His hallmark is an easy-to-listen-to flow that works over any kind of track, no matter how hard-hitting.

His sweet vocals add a melodic touch, making him a great recommendation for listeners who enjoy that vibe.
