After 10 years, Lee “Thanks to the meaning of the starting number, I think it has more meaning, and I’m nervous,” he said regarding his comeback.
Regarding his current status, he said, “Because I was doing regular entertainment shows, preparing for a solo album, preparing for a Super Junior album, and doing a musical on top of that, I didn’t even have time to record the album. I had one day off a week, so I recorded it that day,” but added, “Physically, I’m the youngest member of Super Junior. (It’s okay), the leader corrected it like this,” he joked.

As the name suggests, the new album ‘Restart’ is a song that announces Kyuhyun’s new beginning. As it is a new beginning, Kyuhyun’s strengths and new challenges come together. It includes lyrical ballad songs that the public is familiar with when they think of ‘Kyuhyun’, as well as rock and pop genre songs that were difficult to hear with Kyuhyun’s voice.
Kyuhyun hoped, “This album is not just for the title song, but an album for performances. I created a set list that feels like a performance when you listen to it all the way through. I hope many people will listen to all the songs.”

The album contains 6 songs, including the title song ‘It’s Not That’, ‘Restart’, ‘Slow, Slow’, ‘Was It Love’, ‘Rainbow’, and ‘It’s Because You (Super Junior-KRY)’. done. Among them, the title song ‘It’s Not Like That’ is a song that announces Kyuhyun’s new challenge and beginning. It is a song with a modern rock genre, rather than the traditional lyrical ballad that has been done well and has been done many times. The lyrics were written by You Hee-yeol, Antenna’s representative producer.
Kyuhyun said, “A long time ago, a senior I like said, ‘You can’t just do what you like. You have to sing songs that many people like,’ and I sympathized a lot. I also have songs that I like, and I want the public and fans to sing songs that many people like.” “I have a favorite song. I thought the public would like this song more, so it received a lot of votes within the company. It’s a concept I haven’t done before. I also wanted to show a new side of me,” he said, calling this song the title song. The reason for its selection was stated.

However, Kyuhyun said that he respected the company rather than his own opinions. Kyuhyun said, “Actually, I thought a lot regarding reducing my opinions in this album. I thought that if I continued to express my opinions, music similar to the music I had made so far would come out. So I actively reflected the opinions of the company CEO and staff. The songs were also as usual. “There are songs that have a pop feel, which we haven’t done before, and there are also songs with a rock flavor. I think fans will be very surprised,” he pointed out.
As the antenna is filled with artists with unique personalities and outstanding musical capabilities, led by Yoo Hee-yeol, the work process was also different from the previous agency. Kyuhyun said, “What surprised me a little was that the company’s representative sat in the recording studio for 6 hours. I was surprised. It meant that he was interested (in me),” and added, “We have many stages of confirmation, so there are many cases where we edit and revise. “Because the CEO was there, we were able to talk and make changes right away. It was comfortable for me to sing,” he said.

As he said, CEO Yoo Hee-yeol is paying extreme attention to Kyuhyun. Kyuhyun said, “The CEO is very interested in me. He contacts me almost every day and says, ‘What did you do today? Did you do well? You worked hard. This is what tomorrow is like? Oh, what should I do if I can’t go? But I’ll come next time.’ He shows a lot of affection for music.” When we talked regarding the direction with me, we talked regarding starting from scratch, going back to the basics, and building up one step at a time rather than trying to do something big for the first time. So we might perform in a large concert hall later. “We talked regarding becoming a performing singer.”
I am very satisfied with my first album with the company. Kyuhyun said, “I’m not sure regarding this because I’ve moved to another company, but SM, which I loved so much, was very hip and trendy, and had a strong emphasis on dance songs. As someone who listens to ballads 365 days a year, I “I alone think that Antenna takes good care of lyrical music and solo music like this,” he said with a smile.
In response, Leeteuk said, “Kyu-hyun went well with Antenna. SM is a good company and a good company to embody Kyuhyun’s musical capabilities, but some colors may not fit. Antenna dressed Kyuhyun well in colors and clothes that fit him well. “I think I gave it to you,” he encouraged.
Kyuhyun is expected to take a second leap forward by heading to Antenna and releasing a solo album. He plans to be active in entertainment, musicals, Super Junior, and even solo activities, but this year in particular, he plans to frequently demonstrate his capabilities as a solo Kyuhyun.
Kyuhyun said, “There are quite a lot of things I have done so far. Along with these many things, my first start is as a singer. I think I want to show more of myself as a singer.” He added, “I will be doing no more than three regular entertainment shows.” I’m trying to adjust. I also participate in team activities every year. However, this year, I’m thinking that I’ll probably cut back on my other time to show more of myself as a solo artist. If I just change my body a little, I’m doing a lot of things. That’s how I’ve been doing it so far. “Because I have survived, I will continue to do so,” he expressed his solemn determination.
Kyuhyun’s new album ‘Restart’ will be released on various music sites at 6 PM on this day.
