Singer-songwriter Lee Seung-yoon graces the cover of the December issue of fashion magazine THE STAR.

In the pictorial, Lee Seung-yoon has a boyish smile amidst the fluttering snowflakes. His gaze soaked in sorrow completes the romantic winter atmosphere. Lee Seung-yoon‘s unique charm is impressive, as he stares at the camera while wrapped in a cozy blanket.

An interview was also released along with the pictorial. Lee Seung-yoon said about his third regular album ‘Yeokseong’, released last October, “It’s a very satisfying and proud album,” and explained, “What I wanted to say the most was the story of noises. It contains the feelings of thinking, ‘Am I noise?’ and the courage of the Yeokseong revolution of ‘Let‘s be the main melody just this once.’.”

The story of the nationwide tour that has heated up six cities in a row was also not left out. Lee Seung-yoon emphasized, “Right now, I’m the happiest I‘ve ever been as a musician. I don’t know where my energy comes from, but it‘s probably the stage, the space, and the audience itself.”

Finally, Lee Seung-yoon defined himself as “a person who released an album called ’Yeokseong‘” and added, “This album is so precious to me that I think I started music to release it. As time passes, I’ll naturally become thirsty, but right now, I feel like, ‘I was born to do this.’”

Lee Seung-yoon successfully concluded his nationwide tour, ‘2024 LEE SEUNG YOON CONCERT 易聲’, with his Gwangju performance on the 30th of last month.
