NCT's Heechan conveys his own musical world and sincere message as an artist through his 1st full album "TASTE." The interlude track "Intermission" gently transitions from soul to funk like a theater curtain changing, announcing the beginning of a new chapter and declaring his readiness to spread the talents he has cultivated for a long time through narration, starting his serious journey as a solo artist. The included track "Talented" is a pop dance song in an electro-punk style, featuring a groovy swing rhythm bass riff and futuristic sound, embodying a bold ambition to captivate everyone with his talent. Another included track, "Grey Rain," is an alternative pop R&B track harmonizing gentle acoustic guitar and lyrical vocals, with lyrics that speak of the deep emptiness behind a glamorous and busy life, quietly illuminating moments of inner loneliness and healing, leaving a profound aftertaste. The album's finale, "Outro (Back In The Studio)," depicts Heechan preparing to return to the studio for recording over a calm R&B melody, representing his will and beginnings for new music. Additionally, at midnight today (1st), a highlight medley video of Heechan's 1st full album "TASTE OF LIGHT" will be released through NCT's YouTube channel, allowing listeners to preview some of the included tracks. Heechan's 1st full album "TASTE" will have all tracks released on September 8 at 6 PM through various music streaming sites.
