BEAST’s Dongwoon to Make Solo Debut in Japan This July

It has been confirmed that Son Dongwoon will be the next member of BEAST to make his solo debut—this time in Japan!

On May 22, Cube Entertainment revealed that Dongwoon is preparing to release his first-ever solo album titled “Kimishika” this coming July 1, before officially kicking off solo promotions in Japan.

Following fellow group members Yang Yoseob, Yong Junhyung, and Jang Hyunseung, Dongwoon will be the fourth member to take on the solo stage. Dongwoon personally shared the exciting news with fans during BEAST’s fan meeting in Yokohama, Japan on May 20.

It is said that the BEAST member took part in writing the Japanese lyrics for a majority of the six tracks included in his album, including the title song “Kimishika.” Even more, producing team Good Life, of which Yong Junhyung is also a part, composed the title track.

On May 21, Dongwoon wrote on his personal Twitter account, “I will be releasing my first album in Japan on July 1. I put in a lot of effort and hard work to fill up the album with my stories. I will work even harder to be able to share good music with the Korean fans as well.”

I know Japan is where da money is, but does Beast/Dongwoon even do well in japan?

granted it's been years since i went to any of their shows in japan, but i remember dongwoon being really popular when i went to their first few shows in tokyo! (this was around 2010/11 tho)

Will he also have only two weeks of promotion? (JUSTICE FOR HYUNSEUNG)

Hmmmm idk since beast still has a Korean comeback to get ready for, so maybe?

His promotion period will probably be short since I'm sure Beast is coming back this June, but good for him getting a solo. I hope he does well and puts out music he likes.

As he worked on his singing over the years I gradually came to really love his voice. I'm looking forward to hearing his songs and I hope his solo goes down well :)

I've been hoping for a Godwoon solo for ages because I love his voice, it's definitely my fave in the group! But then again, he's my bias lol! XD I wish he'd release something in Korea though and not just Japan :(

All the rumors coming true I see

Hyunseung only had 2 week promos but it's messed for Dongwoon too because Beast is releasing songs in Japan every month

And they are coming back in Korea soon

AKA Cube why did you waste the first quarter and overlap all of Beast's promos like this

Has the best Japanese skills in the group, probably helps his popularity.
Also enjoyed the press that played up his exclusivity: "Skipping Korea and going straight to Japan!" XD
