Timing was key for Kihyun, who slotted the recording and preparations of solo album 'Voyager' in the first three months of the year: just after Monsta X released both a Korean EP and English full-length at the end of 2021 and before an April Korean EP and a rescheduled U.S. tour kicks off in May.
Even parts of the “Voyager” music video aligned with his vision. “During the shooting of the music video, I tried to act accordingly to the lyrics,” he shares. “I imagined myself driving very fast through the shoreline by the ocean. And for the video, I did get a car in it; it’s just not a fast car.I had this thought in my mind that I didn’t want my music video or the music to sound too basic compared to the ones I do as a group.
“I tried to write lyrics to make something artificial beautiful; I tried a lot of times,” he adds. “I tried to use words that people don’t typically use in the lyrics, but I found it didn’t fit right with the melody; it wasn’t easy to fit lyrics to this song. But after discussing with [co-songwriter] Brother Su, we came up with an idea of putting my own story to the lyrics, and then afterward, it wasn’t that hard because it was my own story.
I actually have already thought about my next move and how I can incorporate different genres—specifically, thinking about jazz for my next solo album. But regarding this and then Monsta X’s next move, I can’t say because I really want to establish myself as Kihyun solo, and as Kihyun from Monsta X because the musical colors are so different.”
