The official announcement of Lucas’ debut solo single comes just days after SM Entertainment confirmed that the ex-NCT member would make his return this year. It marks his first project since he went on hiatus in August 2021 after a South Korean netizen claiming to be his ex-girlfriend accused him of gaslighting her.
Lucas would later leave both NCT and its sub-group WayV in May 2023, but would remain signed under SM Entertainment, with the label saying that the singer was “planning on showing his performance though a wide variety of individual works from now on”.
Last month, the Hong Kong-born K-pop idol addressed is past controversies in a two-part documentary titled Freeze and Unfreeze. Along with the release of the documentary, SM Entertainment had also launched brand-new official accounts for Lucas.
Aside from NCT and WayV, Lucas is also a member of the SM Entertainment supergroup SuperM. However, the singer’s status in the boyband is currently unclear, with the group not having released music since 2021.
