Netizens react to Infinite's Woohyun solo debut announcement

[bloodtaki2.livejournal.com]

1. [+178, -7] It's random but L is stealing the spotlight ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Woohyun's solo will do well. It's not like he has a weak fandom and he's talented.*

2. [+173, -5] The public has to listen for him to get digital sales. I think he'll do well on first charting, voting, and physical sales which require fandom power. Sunggyu's first solo album sold almost 100K.

3. [+163, -7] I'm a Bana and I don't think he'll flop. He has a stable fandom and his voice and talent don't get mixed opinions. My Inspirit friend told me about the song Cactus and since then, I've been listening to the song for years before going to bed.

4. [+75, -1] There's no way he'll flop. Infinite had Sunggyu's solo, Infinite H with Dongwoo and Hoya, and Infinite F with Sungyeol, Sungjong, and L. Woohyun didn't do individual promotions except Toheart so all Inspirits have been waiting for Woohyun's solo. They also have a trauma of Sunggyu's first solo album which was a flop. Do you think the fans will let it happen again? Woohyun is talented and he has a lot of individual fans. He's also well-known by non-fans.

5. [+70, -0] Whether he does well or not, I'm so happy that I can listen to Woohyun's voice for 3 minutes ㅠㅠ I do like all Infinite members' voices though! It'll do well for sure because he has a sweet voice and good talent. I still listen to Cactus.

6. [+57, -0] I envy Infinite fans. They have solos and subunits constantly. It's like they have a strong fence. Hope he does well!

*The first comment was talking about the picture from the original post ㅋㅋ

Woohyun is basically sending his blessing all over the world, even here they finally turned on the ac in the subway

I thought the whole "Sunggyu's first solo album was a flop" thing was false.

[bloodtaki2.livejournal.com]

Nah, dude sold over 93k albums.

On weekly idol (130501), Sunggyu said they joked about it but then it was edited out to make it sound like his album really was a fail. Despite the numbers proving otherwise, people are stuck with the idea that it was a fail, when it's not.

I think their definition of a "flop" is when you fail to win on music shows so yeah idk.

Loving the generalization of knetz...

I was elated when I first found out through my Twitter feed that Namu was finally gettin' a well-deserved solo debut. ;-;♥
I'm just curious as to how his album will sound like as a whole. Will it be all ballads? Will it be all pop music? Who knooows~ Either way, I'm heavily anticipating it! ^-^

I hope it will at least be a mini-album. Woohyun's really into dem ballads, but then he released Everyday, which is quite different from what we're used to hear from him, so that means he's not confining himself to ballads and slow-tempo songs only. There is some hope it will be more diverse!

[swhyeon1991.livejournal.com]

Oh god @ inetz comments lmao.

[kobrakiddo.livejournal.com]

I'm with netizen #5 too! I honestly don't care if he flops or not (obviously I would want him to do well in the charts tho! ) But to be able to hear his voice in other songs other than the few that I've spammed almost countless times (IS2 performances, Cactus, that Modern Farmer OST, Time, Close My Eyes and IDK WHAT ELSE ALREADY ! ) I'm just super glad that I'll get new songs from him. He can sing the whole phone book and I'll still love it to bits LMAO :D

inetzs' comments are all made of win !

Same tbh. I really like his voice, especially his kinda lower range he showcased i their japanese releases (24 jikan, and just another lonely night)

but yeah, he's been mentioning the possibility and the want to release a solo since like 2013. 3 years and a half is a really long time. At this point, you can't even say we're "thirsty" for his voice, as we're just really legitimaly desperate for him to finally get what he wants.
