Former RIIZE's SungHan is holding a special pop-up store. Today (11th), according to his agency SM Entertainment, the first pop-up store prepared by SungHan, 'XngHan's AZIT', will be held for 10 days from today until the 20th at kasina DOSAN in Gangnam, Seoul. The event can be visited by anyone without prior reservation and is free. He collaborated with the sneaker and street fashion select shop 'kasina' and chose royal blue, a color he likes, for the iconic logo ball cap. From limited items with added drawing artwork to a variety of T-shirts expressing individuality, a lineup showcasing his personality will be presented. This pop-up store is designed as a warm hideout incorporating SungHan's preferences. Since the clothes he personally selected will be displayed together, expectations are rising for SungHan's activities expanding from music and performance into the fashion realm. Additionally, MD items such as postcards and stickers capturing behind-the-scenes moments related to his 1st single 'Waste No Time', released in July after launching his artist brand 'XngHan & Xoul', will also be available. The 1st single 'Waste No Time' recorded 1st place in the iTunes top song chart in 12 regions worldwide at the time of its announcement, garnering global attention from Forbes, The Hollywood Reporter, and NME.
SM Entertainment posted weaker Q3 results, with sales and operating profit down year on year and net income turning to a loss. It said reduced domestic comeback schedules hurt direct music and concert revenue, while IP-based businesses grew. The company plans major comebacks and global tours from Q4 through next Q1.
