GOT7's Mark announced a new song, raising expectations for music activities in the second half of this year. Today (15th) at 1 PM, Mark released the second pre-release single 'hold still' from his upcoming new EP. 'hold still' is a work in which Mark participated in co-writing and composing, and it is an important piece to showcase ahead of the EP release in the second half of the year. Mark delicately captured the themes of separation, timing, and emotional aftereffects in 'hold still'. The song depicts the psychology of standing on the boundary where one cannot completely forget or completely cling to something. The addictive hook and lyrics harmonize, further expanding on the narrative of the previous work. 'hold still', expressed through Mark's unique sensibility, leaves a deep resonance in the listener's heart, portraying the experience of being left alone while everything around changes. The music video, released on the same day, visually completes the emotions of the song. In the video, Mark captivates viewers with a sexy performance and emotional acting, showcasing his presence as an artist who combines music and visuals. Particularly, the scenes unfolding from his gaze leave a strong impression, and the sensory color direction contrasted with the minimal set effectively enhances the tension and space of 'hold still'. This new song offers a glimpse into the direction of the new EP. Through this track, Mark conveys a multi-layered story that encompasses separation, love, and timing, constructing an original worldview that combines music and visuals. Mark is attracting global attention as an alternative pop artist while also exerting influence in the fashion industry. Having previously signed a management contract with Transparent Arts, Mark announces a new beginning, showing diverse steps based on a solid global fandom.
