Starting with the release of a new single in the second half of this year, Lee Soo plans to roll out a project in stageshis first standalone summer concert and the unveiling of various contentthat will culminate in his first full-length album in eight years. Rather than a one-off comeback, he aims to capture his musical world more deeply through a long-form project that organically links music and performances.

The project is structured so that the new single, performances, and content connect as one flow and resolve into a full-length album. Specific information about the album will be released in stages at a later date, and throughout the process he intends to stay in steady sync with fans, sustaining anticipation.

In particular, the forthcoming single is the first piece of music to signal the start of this project. It adds another musical allure to the signature depth of feeling and singular vocals of Lee Soo, and is expected to be the release that most clearly hints at the direction of the full-length album project to come.

The standalone concert ‘DSOTM(dee-ess-oh-tee-em)’ to be held on the 29th and 30th at Blue Square Woori WON Banking Hall in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, also serves as a key pillar of the project. Coming about six months after the ‘2025-26 MC the MAX Lee Soo Concert Wintering,’ it is a solo show and, notably, the first summer concert Lee Soo has presented since his debut.

The show goes beyond a simple concert to become a gathering that marks the start of the second-half project together with fans. Along with a seasonally tailored setlist and stage design, it will present the musical world of Lee Soo in a more multidimensional way and foster deep communion with fans who have long awaited his performances.

Through this project, Lee Soo plans both to further consolidate his own musical color and to create another turning point as an artist. Anticipation is building for a new chapter for Lee Soo, which will be completed step by step in the second half of the year through music, performances, and various content.
