SEVENTEEN's Jeonghan and Wonwoo 'THIS MAN'

SEVENTEEN’s Jeonghan and Wonwoo have officially debuted as the sub-unit JEONGHAN X WONWOO with the release of their first album, THIS MAN. Dropped at 6 PM KST, the album features the lead single “Last Night” and two solo tracks, “Beautiful Monster” by Jeonghan and “Trash Can” by Wonwoo.

The announcement of this exciting collaboration came on May 20, when SEVENTEEN revealed that Jeonghan and Wonwoo would be joining forces for a new single album.

The release of THIS MAN has been highly anticipated by fans, eager to see the unique synergy between the two artists.

THIS MAN draws its inspiration from an urban legend about a mysterious figure who appears in dreams worldwide. This intriguing concept has been transformed into a compelling narrative that runs throughout the album.

Jo Ye Eun, a renowned genre fiction writer known for works like Shift and Overlap Knife, Knife, played a key role in shaping the album’s storyline.

The title track, “Last Night,” is a medium-tempo song that masterfully blends Latin rhythms with acoustic guitar melodies. SEVENTEEN’s producer Woozi collaborated with Bumzu on the production, while acclaimed Korean gypsy guitarist Park Juwon added his distinct touch. The track exudes a dark, mysterious vibe with a touch of sensuality, perfectly aligning with the album’s overarching theme.

The song tells the story of a man who travels through people’s dreams and another who chases him, creating a surreal and haunting narrative. The accompanying music video enhances this theme, with Jeonghan and Wonwoo navigating a dreamscape that blurs the lines between reality and fantasy.

In addition to “Last Night,” the album features solo tracks by Jeonghan and Wonwoo.

Jeonghan’s “Beautiful Monster” and Wonwoo’s “Trash Can” highlight their individual styles and talents, adding depth and variety to the album. These tracks showcase the duo’s versatility and provide a broader perspective on their artistic capabilities.

Jeonghan, born Yoon Jeonghan, is a beloved South Korean singer and performer signed under Pledis Entertainment. He is part of SEVENTEEN’s Vocal Team and now a member of the sub-unit JEONGHAN X WONWOO.

His counterpart, Wonwoo, born Jeon Wonwoo, is a South Korean rapper from SEVENTEEN’s Hip-Hop Team. Together, they bring a unique chemistry that highlights their strengths within the group.
