What if this absolutely beautiful man
Missing you
Is crying
Trying to hold you back?
Critical damage.
Truly dangerous.
So, this is where we're 'STAY'ing today.
Singer Cha Eun-woo is back as a solo artist after 8 years since his debut. He released his first solo album "ENTITY" on the 15th.
This is a new, fresh version of Cha Eun-woo that has never been seen before. It is a candid expression of emotions between artist Cha Eun-woo and human Lee Dong-min. This album offers a glimpse into his inner self.
The title track is country pop, "STAY." It is a combination of acoustic guitar and Cha Eun-woo's voice. It features a lively vocal sound.
Cha Eun-woo expressed the feeling he feels the most right now. It contains the comfort he gives to all who are sad after breaking up with loved ones.
In particular, Cha Eun-woo was named a lyricist from his first work. In addition to "Stay," he wrote the lyrics of all the songs, including "U&I," "Fucking Great Time," "Where Am I," "You're the Best," and "Memories."
Cha Eun-woo visited Los Angeles on the 20th of last month. "Dispatch" reveals the behind-the-scenes story of filming the music video for "Stay."
The man

And time flows.
Yet, he remains searching for someone.
Finally, his eyes find the target.
"India Eisley"

The representative visuals of the East and the West met. So, how was this meeting of them?
"Ethereal"
"This should be illegal"
"Monitoring together"
