SEVENTEEN’s Dino’s new song “AUTOMATIC” was surprise-released today (the 3rd) at 6 p.m. “AUTOMATIC” is a song that depicts the heart-fluttering feeling of love that is completed when two people are together. Dino participated in the lyrics and composition, and expressed the thrill of love that began naturally, as if being drawn together, with a refreshing sound. Jintae Ko, a producer who created award-winning works at the “Grammy Awards,” the most prestigious music awards ceremony in the United States, also helped with the lyrics and composition. Prior to this, Dino pre-released the stage for “AUTOMATIC” at “2026 DINOxPICHEOLIN [GilBOARD SHOW]” held at the Jamsil Indoor Gymnasium in Seoul, and received an explosive response. The sound, where a rhythmic bass and refreshing guitar performance harmonized, instantly caught the audience’s ears, and CARATs (SEVENTEEN’s fans) cheered at Dino’s vocal expressiveness, which freely moved back and forth between singing rap and falsetto. Starting with the 2021 mixtape “Wait,” Dino has released various solo songs and built up his discography. In August, he released his 1st mini album “GilBOARD” as the sub-character Picheolin, expanding his musical appeal beyond the boundaries of genres and concepts. At his solo performances held in Seoul and Macau, he proved his ability as an “all-round player” by handling not only his own solo songs but also SEVENTEEN’s group songs and the performance team’s unit songs all by himself.
