MONSTA X's Joohoney captivates with surprising charisma in the "Freedom" MV teaser.
On the 18th, Joohoney of MONSTA X released a teaser video for the title track "Freedom" from his solo debut album and first mini-album, "Lights," on the group's official YouTube channel. Even in the short 20-second video, Joohoney's intense longing for freedom, which he wants to sing about, shines through.
With a melodic and poetic melody, Joohoney exudes charismatic gazes and showcases various scenes utilizing light, capturing the viewers' attention. His silhouette reaching towards the sky in the midst of colorful lighting represents the yearning for freedom, while the spotlight shining on him in the darkness gives the impression that he is breaking free from the world's gaze and prejudices, embracing his true self.
The title track "Freedom" is a song that expresses the heart of a boy flying towards freedom, compressing Joohoney's versatile positions in rap, vocals, and producing. It combines a sentimental introduction with piano strings and hip-hop sounds, completing a contrasting composition and providing a cathartic sense of liberation.
Joohoney stimulates the expectations of Monbebe (the fandom name) with his positive and poignant vocals in the title track "Freedom" and his first solo album "Lights." The anticipation grows as we wonder what kind of charm will be expressed when his solid skills, honed through 8 years of MONSTA X activities and producing, meet his true musical style.
Joohoney's first solo album "Lights," where you can feel the 'freedom' he dreams of, will be available for streaming on various music platforms on the 22nd at 6 p.m.
