Kwak Dong-hyun releases new single ‘What a Day’ on the 20th for the first time in 3 years

He showed off his exceptional high-pitched range and wide-spectrum vocal abilities on Hidden Singer and Fan Team Singer.
Singer Kwak Dong-hyun has since been building a successful career as a musical actor, playing lead roles in various musicals such as Siddhartha, We Will Rock You, Entrepreneurship, and Klimt.
Kwak Dong-hyun's new song was composed and executive produced by B612's Seo Jun-seo, the protagonist of 'My Only You', which is recognized as an indispensable masterpiece in the Korean rock ballad genre.
This is the result of a sudden collaboration between two artists who met through Kwak Dong-hyun's song 'My Only Look' when he appeared on MBC's 'King of Mask Singer'.
The title song 'Some Day' is a song that stands out with Kwak Dong-hyun's unique vocals and high notes that pierce the listener's heart. It captures the painful emotions of separation through a beautiful and lyrical melody and elegant development of the song.
In addition, the song that brought the two together, 'My Only Way of You', was newly remade and included in this album with dynamic arrangement by Choo Seung-yeop, leader of the group 'Aktung', and production by original composer Seo Jun-seo.
I am curious about how this work, in which the original composer participated as a producer, will be received by the public.
Meanwhile, Kwak Dong-hyun will hold a showcase and fan meeting to showcase his new song to fans on the 19th, a day before the single's release. This event consists of a variety of programs to communicate with fans, such as live performances, games and talks with fans, autograph sessions, and photo times.
Kwak Dong-hyun is digesting various musical genres such as rock, ballad, and crossover, and is building a wide range of activities as a singer and musical actor. We look forward to more active activities through ‘A Certain Day’, which is being released for the first time in 3 years.
