Imseulong will release a mini-album 'Rainbow Light' through various music sites at 6 p.m. on the 15th.
This album is the first solo new album in eight years since the digital single 'Your Sea' which was released ahead of his enlistment in the military in 2017. The work, which captures sentimental emotions through images of rain and rainbows, contains four songs of different styles based on Im Seul-ong's unique soft tone.
The title song 'Rainbow Light' is a combination of addictive bass lines and repeated melodies, and it is a love song that embraces both the excitement and sadness of love like a rainbow that bloomed after the rain stopped. Track 2 'Mist' is a cinematic pop song based on piano melody and grand string orchestration, and Im Seul-ong participated in the lyrics to quietly and deeply release the emotion of calm separation.
The modern rock genre 'Image' is a song written and composed by 2AM member Jeong Jin-woon for Im Seul-ong's solo album. It expresses the complex emotions of love through the exquisite contrast between intense guitar and delicate piano sound. The last track for global fans 'Rainbow Light (English Ver.)' offers a different charm than the Korean version.
In the meantime, Im Seul-ong has steadily expanded the musical spectrum through various collaboration sound sources and OST works, including 2AM activities. This solo album is a result of the experience and reflection gained so far, and it is expected to meet Im Seul-ong's own color, which is different from his appearance in group activities.
