Singer Hwang Chi-yeol said of his new album, “It‘s music that contains the joys and sorrows of everyday life.”

Hwang Chi-yeol will release his third full-length album, ‘ALL OF ME’, through various music streaming sites at 6 p.m. today (the 27th).

‘ALL OF ME’ is an album that contains everything about Hwang Chi-yeol, as its title suggests. Hwang Chi-yeol participated in producing and writing all the songs, and we will reveal a Q&A with him.


Q. This is your first full-length album in about 6 years. I imagine you have different feelings about it.

A. As a singer, a full-length album seems to have a special meaning. I also paid a lot more attention to the music video and song composition from the concept planning stage of the album. I am more excited and nervous than usual about how the fans will listen to it.


Q. Is there a special reason why you chose ‘It might sound funny, but’ as the title track?

A. I had a lot of concerns about choosing a song centered on the band sound as the title track, but I got greedy and made a bold decision. The biggest reason was that I wanted to try a new challenge.


Q. You participated in producing and writing the lyrics for all the songs in the album. What did you focus on the most?

A. I wanted to express the joys and sorrows that can be felt in everyday life. I wanted to create an album that not only evokes enough empathy but also fills the soul with emotions through everyday themes such as breakups, love, and consolation, so I think I kept that in mind the most.


Q. ‘It might sound funny, but’ You appeared in the music video yourself. Was there any memorable episode while filming it?

A. I had to act out sad emotions while eating a bagel, and the bagel was really delicious. We filmed the same scene multiple times, but I remember making a lot of NGs because it was so delicious every time I ate it. (Laughs)


Q. What does the ‘ALL OF ME’ album mean to Hwang Chi-yeol?

A. ‘My everything’. In other words, I think it can be defined as an album that contains everything about singer Hwang Chi-yeol. I think I put all my efforts into the album to put as many emotions as possible into it, and I think I grew a lot as a result.


Q. Please say a word to the fans who have been waiting for Hwang Chi-yeol’s full-length album for a long time.

A. Our fans, it‘s been a really long time since I’ve greeted you with a full-length album. I think the best way to repay my fans‘ support is to impress them with good music and performances. I hope that my album will make everyone’s daily lives more colorful. Thank you.
