'Comeback' Kyuhyun, Yoo Hee-yeol's self-esteem certification "I'm in my recording studio for 6 hours, there's a lot of interest"

Super Junior's Kyuhyun, who debuted as a solo artist, certified the kindness of Yoo Hee-yeol, CEO of Antenna Music, the head of his new agency.

At 2 p.m. on the 9th, a showcase commemorating the release of Kyuhyun's new EP 'Restart' was held at the Blue Square Mastercard Hall in Itaewon-ro, Yongsan-gu, Seoul. On this day, Super Junior Leeteuk served as MC.

On this day, Kyuhyun said about his move to Antenna Music, "I moved to a new environment after being in the same environment for 17 years, and there were some unfamiliar things," but added, "Still, it's not that different in the music-making field. The A&R team at our company has created good songs." “They collected a lot of information and asked me questions, and I don’t think there was much difference in the work environment. Since the company is small, the reporting system was very brief and simple, so I liked the quick feedback.”

Next, regarding Yoo Hee-yeol, "The CEO is very interested. He calls me and says, 'What did you do today?', 'Did you do well?', 'You worked hard,' and 'This is what tomorrow is like? I'm sorry I can't go. I'll definitely be there the day after tomorrow.'" "When we talked about the musical direction with me, we talked about starting from scratch. Rather than making a big deal from the beginning, we said let's build it up step by step," he explained, drawing attention.

In addition, Kyuhyun said that Yoo Hee-yeol showed great interest in this new album, and said, "What surprised me was that the CEO sat in my recording studio for 6 hours. He was that interested and gave me feedback right away. Being able to talk about it and make changes on the spot is the key to the song." “It was comfortable for me to do it,” he added.

This new album 'Restart' is Kyuhyun's new album released about two years after the release of 'Love Story (4 Season Project 季)', and as the album name suggests, Kyuhyun is making a new start at Antenna. It contains a story.

The title song 'It's Not Like That' is a pop rock genre that stands out with Kyuhyun's powerful vocals, and the song expresses complex feelings toward an ex-lover whom it has not been a long time through lyrical lyrics. Kyuhyun tried to break away from the colors he had shown so far and transform into a refreshing charm.

Released at 6pm on this day.
