Park Jung Min "Among SS501 First To Come Back, I Am Not Lonely"

Male Group SS501 member Park Jung Min took the lead and started off his first solo broadcast today.

Midnight on the 20th, the solo album 'Not Alone' was released to the public on Park Jung Min's official homepage.

The highlight in Park Jung Min's solo album, where the songs 'Not Alone', 'Do you know' as well as 'My day is Christmas Everyday" are all personally written by him.

Moreover, as the title song 'Not Alone' is the solo debut song to be performed on the stage, Park Jung Min's anxiety together with the messages from the public have gathered much attention.

The splendid orchestra is the main thing in 'Not Alone', with Park Jung Min's voice and the orchestra's melody in the centre. It is said that this attempt has created a new feel for a dance song.

After ending contract with their previous agency, each member moved to different agencies, and he is the first out of the 5 members to make a solo comeback. Solo title song is called ‘Not Alone’, meaning that he is not alone.

In fact, Park JungMin’s comeback was supposed to be end-November last year. Due to the sudden case of YeonPyeong-do incident, the album was delayed for almost 2 months. However, Park JungMin’s expression remains bright. “When the incident happened, I was in Japan. Having to hear this sad news overseas, I think I felt the mixed feeling more than anyone else. Frankly speaking, I was really lost initially. But finally, I thought that this was not the time to release an album and I made up my mind. As a result, it seems like it is a wise decision.”

Teaser video of ‘Not Alone’ had already been released in mid-November. The teaser video includes gay, and other outcastes in the society. Being recognised as a member of SS501 and as an idol singer, Park JungMin’s teaser video was completed with serious and heavy social message, which will soon become a hot topic.

“It is natural for a singer who does popular music to sing love song. But now, simply because I don’t want to sing simple love songs. Even if it is not about social messages, I still want to fill my album with something of different meanings. I hope to fill the album together with my current image as a soloist too. "

“Frankly speaking I thought very hard about which type of music I should choose. Why I’ve chosen ‘Not Alone’ is because I am convinced that I am able to stay true to this song than those other potential title songs given. If a singer cannot be 100% touched by the song, then the public will not be moved by the song, this I learnt it from experience. I can’t deny that there are still traces of SS501’s music as that was what I’ve done till now.”

Park JungMin "Reason for not meeting SS501 members often is..."

Group SS501's Park JUngMin release his first solo album 'Not Alone', starting his solo activities.

From a member from group SS501 who has mostly Asia fans, to using his own name 'Park JungMin' to come back again.

From the different outlook as compare to the past could see his changes. Reducing weight up till 10kg, he who is with slimmer face shape and body, has the toughness of 'cool boy'.

After reducing weight looking more mature's Park JungMin said: "Looking at SS501's past DVD (was too fat), had a shock, decided to reduce weight." then he laugh cheerfully.

After changing to his new agency CNR Media, for solo activities, of course there will be a lot of fear and difficulties in many areas, regarding this, Park JungMin said: "After completing SS501 activities, was really hurt, kept thinking "What to do in future?" Was worrying for very long. Because it was very painful emotionally, had even thought of quitting (entertainment circle). Even up till the level that needed to eat sleeping pill then can go asleep. Don't know whether it is because of emotional stress, during that time really felt very pain."

JungMin also said: "However now looking back at that period, felt that has learned something. Learned that actually at the same time when I has became single, can also work harder to make myself stronger. If continue to have activities in a group, maybe I would not be able to feel the cruelty of reality. Maybe I would not work harder in order to own even stronger ability, so (solo activities) from another angle could be the opportunity to allow me to develop a sense of Independence. Will also always think of the past, the period when I was working hard alone participating in the audition. Gradually could feel that 'SS501's fan do not definitely is my fans' that kind of worries has diminished. Therefore my confidence is continuing to expand."

Currently SS501 members still remain in contact, will also cheer and support for each others activities. Not long ago, in order to support acted in Musical 'Cafe-In''s main lead Kim HyungJun, Park JungMin personally went to attend his musical, became a hot topic.

Regarding question of whether members will attending event and meeting, Park JungMin said truthfully: "We will always cheer for each others activities, will also often communicate via phone. However if meeting to often, I fear that I will start to feel dependent/reliant, therefore now will deliberately try to control not to meet them. Especially now, not at this important period during this solo activities."
