Hwang Min Hyun Becomes Soloist, Releases Album This Year

JAKARTA - Hwang Min Hyun ex-NUEST will return to the music world. His agency, Pledis Entertainment, confirmed that the actor will release his first solo album this year.

"Hwang Min Hyun is working hard to prepare for the solo album to be released this February," said the agency today, Friday, January 20.

This will be Min Hyun's first release since his debut with NUEST in 2012. Min Hyun is the third member of NUEST to release a solo album after Baekho and Kim Jong Hyun in 2022.

Previously, this plan had been revealed by HYBE via live broadcast in November 2022. At that time, Pledis had not announced when and what the solo concept that Hwang Min Hyun carried out in his release.

In addition, Hwang Min Hyun once released several solo songs. In September 2022, he released the song Again which was done by R&B singer Colde.

The disbandment of NUEST makes Min Hyun more focused on acting. Evidently, his latest drama Alchemy of Souls scored a high rating and made his name even more known.

He is also confirmed to star in the drama Useless Lies with Kim Soo Hyun which is planned to air this year. On the other hand, he is also the Star Master for the Boys Planet competition show, the male version of the Girls Planet 999 competition.
