EXO’s D.O made his highly-anticipated solo debut on Monday, July 26 with the release of his first solo album Empathy, alongside the music video of the track “Rose.”
“I’m nervous yet excited about my first solo album. I hope the music makes you happy,” D.O said regarding Empathy.
In a Soompi report, D.O. shared how he prepared for his first solo album. “It feels really new. I used to sing with my members, but I had to sing alone, so there were some difficulties. However, it was nice to have a unique and fun experience,” he said.
In the eight-track album, D.O. wrote two songs – the title track “Rose,” and “I’m Fine.” “After deciding the theme of the album would be ‘empathy’, one of the things I thought of was love, an emotion that anyone could feel, and I felt that it would be nice if my songs could comfort others,” the 28-year-old singer added.
Empathy also includes two bonus songs – the English version of the title track, “Rose,” and “Si Fueras Mia,” the Spanish version of another B-side track, “It’s Love.”
D.O. is now the sixth EXO member to have a solo album, following members Baekhyun, Lay, Suho, Chen, and Kai.
Prior to his solo album, D.O. had already released solo songs “That’s Okay” for SM Station and “Crying Out” as the soundtrack for movie Cart.
Since being discharged from the military last January, D.O. has been filming for the upcoming movie, The Moon. He is also confirmed to lead the Korean remake of the 2008 Taiwanese film Secret.
D.O. debuted under EXO in April 2012. In June 2021, the group made their comeback with Don’t Fight The Feeling. – Rappler.com
