NCT Doyoung delivers profound comfort with the second album's track "Still."
"Still" is a pop rock song characterized by lyrical piano, heavy strings, and modern band sounds that evoke deep resonance, depicting the journey of those who constantly wandered between reality and ideals in search of their true selves with a calm heart.
The song was directly written and composed by legendary artist Yoon Do-hyun, adding significance, and it was enhanced by Doyoung's appealing vocals and emotion. It is expected to be music that offers comfort and empathy to everyone trying to protect themselves unwaveringly in an uncertain world.
Additionally, the behind-the-scenes recording video "Soar Diary - page. 1," released on the NCT YouTube channel and other platforms on the 24th, captured Doyoung and Yoon Do-hyun exchanging direction while working together, along with honest interviews with the two artists.
Yoon Do-hyun noted, "'Still' is a song I wrote when I was struggling internally, longing for my heart to be calm and at peace. Since music has been a great strength to me, I wrote this song when I wanted to overcome difficult situations by myself, and I thought it would suit Doyoung well, so I decided to gift it to him."
He continued, "Doyoung expressed the lonely atmosphere well, which I am satisfied with, and seeing him work hard makes me think he will be a long-lasting artist. He is already a complete singer, so I have high expectations for whatever music he does."
Doyoung's second album "Soar," set to release on June 9, includes a total of 10 tracks, featuring the title song "Hello, Universe (Memory)." The album carries a message from Doyoung, who found comfort in music, aiming to impart the "power to inspire dreams" to more people through his songs.
