MAMAMOO member Solar released her second single ‘WANT’ through various music sites today (the 2nd) at 6 PM.

‘WANT’ is a single that captures the moment when love begins with a heart-fluttering pink mood. Solar caught everyone‘s attention by going back and forth between ‘nerd’ and ‘secret partner’ in a series of teasing contents.


[The following is a Q&A with Solar ahead of her single release]

Q. It’s been about a year since your 2nd mini album ‘COLOURS’, so you‘re releasing a solo single. How do you feel?

A. I think it’s always exciting to release new music. I wanted to show you what I‘ve prepared as soon as possible.

Q. Could you briefly introduce the single ‘WANT’ and give some key points to enjoy?

A. ‘WANT’ can be simply described as a ‘screaming spring song’. It is a song that captures the mood of spring and is full of energy, so it can liven up the mood on nice, pleasant days like these, and it is a song that is easy to listen to anytime, anywhere.

Q. What are some notable parts of the ‘WANT’ performance? Please introduce the point choreography.

A. I think it would be good to pay attention to the clever killing point of the ‘WANT’ expression in the middle of the choreography. There is also a part where you jump around excitedly in the chorus. It is an easy and fun choreography that anyone can follow, so please show lots of interest!

Q. You went back and forth between the characters of ‘Nerd’ and ‘Secret Partner’ through the teasing content. What kind of image did you want to express?

A. ‘Secret Partner’ Solar coaches ‘nerd’ Solar on love, and thanks to that, ‘nerd’ Solar gains the confidence and courage to go straight to the person she loves.

Q. The preview video with all the magic tricks was impressive. Were there any funny episodes during filming?

A. Since you used a lot of editing tricks, I actually wondered while filming, ‘Will it turn out as well as I intended? But when I saw the finished video, it turned out so well that I screamed ‘Wow!’ in my head. I can’t stop watching it. I think it‘s a music video that’ll really make your dopamine explode because it used so many amazing tricks. I‘m looking forward to everyone’s reactions!

Q. Please say a word to Yongsoon (fandom name) who have been waiting for Solar‘s music.

A. There were many Yongsoons who waited for my new song, and I’m happy to be back with a bright and cheerful song that suits spring. I wanted to deliver a good message to Yongsoons. I‘m always grateful, and let’s have fun with this ‘WANT’ activity!
