EVAN announces debut mini album 'DEATH OF ME', out September 7

DEATH OF ME drops September 7 at 6 PM.

EVAN left ENHYPEN in March and went solo in June 2026 with Ride or Die. This is his first full project.

Eight tracks. EVAN wrote lyrics for all of them and composed seven—everything except Noise. He also led production on the whole thing.

The title track, which EVAN wrote and composed, captures his attitude at a new starting point and his commitment to continuing musical challenges. Not Enough is about wanting to move toward a wider place rather than staying put. Noise explores finding one's own path at one's own pace. Ride or Die follows emotions that start from wanting love and grow uncontrollably. Twilight compares moments with someone to twilight. Immature is about pushing forward in one's own direction even when still clumsy. Overflow uses the image of a glass overflowing to express multiple emotions welling up at once. Going Home, the closer, compares the feeling of heading where you're meant to go—after many journeys—to the road back home.

EVAN shared the tracklist on his official SNS on August 13. Before release, he's lined up appearances at the Grammy Museum's Spotlight program in Los Angeles on August 14 (local time), KCON LA 2026 on August 16, the 2026 TIMA awards ceremony on August 23, and 2026 K World Dream Awards on August 27.
