Seventeen’s Woozi talks about 1st solo mixtape
Woozi of Seventeen talked about his putting together his first solo mixtape that is due out next month.
In an interview that accompanied a photoshoot for Marie Claire Korea, he said he had to rack his brain to decide which direction he should be headed in making music that is wholly his own for the first time. After a painstaking process, however, he managed to create a mixtape that would be an answer to the question “What kind of music does musician Woozi do?”
The singer/songwriter has been making music for the past 10 years and hearing fans say that his music gave them strength is what keeps him going.
“Thanks to that, now I want to make music that makes people happy, music that is good enough to make those who support us proud,” he said.
Woozi won the best producer award at the 2021 Asia Artist Awards earlier this month and will release the mixtape in January.

Victon covers IU’s Christmas song
Victon gifted fans a cover of IU’s “Merry Christmas in Advance” late Thursday.
The six members, aside from leader Han Seung-woo who is currently serving in the military, remade the singer’s 2010 song while enjoying a Christmas party in the music video. Do Han-se added a rap that he wrote himself.
In the meantime, the band will put out a new album in January, about a year after its first LP “Voice: The Future Is Now.” Last month, it celebrated its fifth debut anniversary with a fan song. A fan meet to mark the event, slated for earlier this month, was canceled out of precaution against COVID-19.
