'EXO D.O.' Dyo Kyung-soo confirms a solo comeback in August with nonstop activity spanning TV variety and music

Singer and actor Dyo Kyung-soo is returning as a solo artist after a year.

AUGUST RELEASE OF NEW SOLO ALBUM AND HOLDING OF A SOLO FAN MEETING Based on reports from multiple outlets on the 15th and the position of his agency, Blitzway Entertainment, Dyo Kyung-soo has confirmed his comeback in August and is deep into preparations for his new solo album. This will be his new release in about 1 year and 1 month since his first solo full-length album, “BLISS” (Bliss), which was released last July. In particular, the track “Popcorn” from his previously released third mini album “GROWTH” managed a chart comeback during last April’s cherry blossom season, leading to a sustained hit run, raising expectations even further for Dyo Kyung-soo’s new song. Alongside the release of his new solo album in August, Dyo Kyung-soo will also hold a solo fan meeting in Japan on the 16th, where he plans to meet his global fans in a special setting.

Million-seller EXO group activities and a globally successful tour Before his solo comeback, Dyo Kyung-soo is also delivering major results as a member of the group EXO. Earlier this year in January, after taking on full group activities for the first time in about 2 years and 6 months through EXO’s 8th full-length album, he secured the group’s eighth overall million-seller record with that album and swept five wins on music broadcast programs, proving his firm status. He is also currently cruising through EXO’s sixth standalone concert tour, “EXO PLANET #6 - EXhOrizon” (EXO Planet #6 - EXhOrizon). Starting with a show in April at Seoul’s KSPO DOME (gymnasium arena), he recorded a lineup of global sellouts in places including Ho Chi Minh City, Nagoya, Taipei, Osaka, and Jakarta, and additional dates are planned in July in Manila, Tokyo, Kaohsiung, and Singapore.

A “jack-of-all-trades entertainer” who moves between dramas and variety In addition to music, his main line of work, Dyo Kyung-soo keeps up an unrelenting streak of “hard work” that spans acting and variety. Last year, he connected with audiences through Disney+’s series “City of Pieces” and tvN’s variety program “Kkong Kkong Pap Pap.” Ahead of the premiere of a new tvN variety program, “Kong Sim Eun De Kong Naneo Gago Pam Hago Pam Dongan Go-oo,” which starts at 8:35 p.m. on the 19th, he will appear consecutively on the show and keep the momentum going. With front-to-back activity that includes overseas EXO tour dates, variety filming, and preparations for his solo comeback, Dyo Kyung-soo has set up a packed second half, and attention is focused on what musical transformation he will unveil through this new release.
