Nam Woo Hyun The 1st Album [WHITREE]
《 A season like a warm first love, in a white winter, Woo Hyun (WH) and the Tree, and Inspirit in between 》
In November 2023, a one-of-a-kind tree, holding diverse winter songs, grows.
Having explored diverse musical attempts and genres through his previous albums, from deeply emotional ballads to R&B and profound dance, 'the master of concepts' Nam Woo Hyun has returned.
Nam Woo Hyun, who has always satisfied listeners' eyes and ears beyond expectations with each comeback, now releases his first full-length album [WHITREE], embodying his unique winter mood.
[WHITREE], his first full-length album in 7 years since his solo debut, is a compound word of 'WHITE' and 'TREE', evoking an image of a 'tree covered in white snow' that perfectly suits winter, while also bringing out the seasonal feel. It also carries the meaning of Nam Woo Hyun's initials 'WH' and his nickname 'TREE', with 'I' representing Inspirit, indicating that they are together.
In this album, whose title itself is extraordinary, you can find 11 winter songs of various genres. It also allows you to confirm Nam Woo Hyun's musical skill and sense, as he has consistently participated equally in songwriting, composing, and arranging, solidifying his position as a complete singer-songwriter.
In particular, the title track 'Baby Baby', which clearly defines the album's color, features Nam Woo Hyun's solo participation in lyrics, infusing his unique bright and lovely charm. By layering his lyrical vocals over the exciting city-pop melody reminiscent of a carol, it beautifully captures a common yet uncommon love story and a soft, cozy winter sensibility.
[WHITREE] is filled with Nam Woo Hyun's ideas and considerations across the overall album concept and work, including art and photography. True to 'the master of concepts,' the music video and stage performances, which emphasize 'change' to present a different image while also incorporating Nam Woo Hyun's inherent charm, are also key points to watch.
Beyond the title track 'Baby Baby,' after enjoying 'Kiss me if you love me,' which offers another sweet winter atmosphere, and 'Save Us,' characterized by its powerful guitar, you'll be able to catch his ever-changing vocals that transform freely with each song.
In 'From the Future,' a Piano Rock track gaining new attention for its unique sensibility and trendy sound, you can hear dramatic vocals that sound like a romantic animation narrative written instantly. In 'I'll be alright,' you'll hear emotional vocals that seem to comfort and soothe himself, and in 'Paradise (My Paradise),' you can enjoy refreshing vocals that open up your heart.
The solid song storytelling, which reveals his aspect as a full-fledged singer-songwriter, is also noteworthy. Looking into the fruits of his [WHITREE] that have ripened after seven years, such as 'Love Myself,' which contains a story he would want to tell his 'past self' when meeting him after time has passed; 'California,' which depicts the fluttering excitement of a cute couple on a Californian beach; and 'Playing with Fire,' which tells a passionate love story burning like fire, one might find the answer to why people are enthusiastic about the 'Nam Woo Hyun' brand.
[WHITREE] has been cozily completed to allow listeners to stay with it for a long time, fitting the long time it took to create. Why not make it the destination to conclude a year that was busy with relentless efforts? In late November, ahead of the peak of winter with its somehow exhilarating year-end atmosphere, let's enjoy the white, sparkling excitement with 'Nam Woo Hyun's Winter Playlist'.
In the last winter of 2023,
the splendid blossoming of [WHITREE] now begins.
