In the second week of February (February 9-15), Maidin's new single was released, along with solo albums from Yang Yo-seob and Jeon Ji-woo, while Woody also debuted his new activities.

Maidin's latest single 'Girl Meets Boys' features two title tracks, 'Super Obvious' and 'PUNG!', and includes a total of six tracks. This album captures the emotions surrounding love's beginnings and endings, with 'Super Obvious' using the metaphor of a video to depict the anticipated end of love. 'PUNG!' expresses the heart's racing feeling of love through a playful pop sound.

Yang Yo-seob's mini-album 'Unloved Echo' includes the title track 'Fade Away', which is a ballad reflecting on the echoes of love lingering after it fades away.

Jeon Ji-woo's first mini-album '(EX)IST' contains four tracks including 'Home Sweet Home', encapsulating experiences from her past to the present while blending R&B and alternative pop.

Woody's new mini-album 'Woody.zip' features the title track 'Let’s Have One More Glass', expressing emotions from the delicate boundaries of budding romance in a heartfelt ballad.

Maidin's 'Girl Meets Boys' adeptly discusses the theme of love through diverse perspectives, and their vocal harmony paired with vibrant sounds is likely to resonate positively with fans. The use of metaphor in both tracks to articulate complex emotions surrounding love is particularly noteworthy.

Yang Yo-seob’s 'Unloved Echo' firmly establishes his position as a solo artist, showcasing his evolution into a more mature musical identity. The title track, which he wrote himself, is expected to evoke empathy from many listeners.

Jeon Ji-woo’s solo album signifies her journey towards establishing an independent identity apart from her group activities. The exploration of musical boundaries between R&B and alternative pop is likely to be highly regarded. Woody's 'Woody.zip' highlights emotional maturity in expression and effectively showcases his artistic identity.
