The ecstasy of the 'moment' of falling in love
Kino's first solo album, special single [POSE]
Kino, a member of PENTAGON who has firmly established his position among many K-POP fans with a diverse musical spectrum and high concept digestibility through songs like 'Shine', 'Daisy', 'DO or NOT', and 'Feelin' Like', is releasing his first solo album, the special single [POSE], to prove his musical presence.
Kino's first solo album [POSE] captures a distinct emotional line, an unrivaled performance, and an infinite variety of charms that will capture everyone's eyes and ears, all within a single track. Furthermore, by listing his name among the lyricists and composers of the new song 'POSE', he showcases a side of himself that has grown further as an artist, not just in visuals.
'POSE' sings of the very brief 'moment' of falling in love. Love begins the 'moment' one recognizes a similarity in the other's eyes, and one experiences a feeling as if all time and air have stopped. That 'moment' when the body freezes in dangerous ecstasy is like striking a pose for a work of art. The song doubles the listening pleasure by utilizing the similar pronunciation and dual meaning of 'Pause' and 'POSE' within this storyline.
In particular, the music video fully showcases Kino's capabilities, which he has solidly built as the group's main dancer, in addition to his songwriting and composing. By adding delicate choreography that incorporates ballet and modern dance over the intense performances he has previously shown, viewers will be able to glimpse Kino's unique and differentiated charm.
To everyone who encounters Kino's special single [POSE], which fully embodies his own colors, it presents the ecstasy of that moment of falling in love.
