WOODZ (Cho Seung-youn) - 5th Mini Album [OO-LI]

WOODZ 5th Mini Album [OO-LI] Thrown into freedom, we wander. Is the meaning hidden behind intended innocence what we were searching for? Wandering somewhere between freedom and control, I searched for and faced the self deep within. He was wearing a smile that felt quite like me. Holding onto the warmth slowly washing over me, I took another step forward. Far in the distance, another version of me is looking around, as if searching for who I am now. Just as my past self once did, I send him a smile that reflects who I am today. 1. Deep Deep Sleep An R&B track featuring a charming sound that starts with a minimal arrangement and gradually fills up. It carries the message of someone who does not want to wake up from a free dream. 2. Journey A Pop track that stands out with its rich band sound and the progression of refreshing vocals. ‘I faced the self in the abyss. The smile he sent was warm, and I discovered the me I had forgotten. The journey I will embark on again is filled with anticipation rather than fear.’ 3. Drowning A song depicting the emotions of someone slowly dying, submerged in the rain of sorrow after a loved one has left. The intense bass sound, wailing vocals, and the strings in the latter half increase the immersion of the track. 4. Busted A track with a charming intense riff and cynical atmosphere, expressing the moment one realizes a love was false. The overwhelming rap appearing in the latter half further heightens the emotions of the song. 5. Who Knows Interprets 90s Punk Metal sound in WOODZ's own unique color. ‘Who would have known I'd become a singer while playing soccer? Who knows what I'll do in the future?’ 6. Ready to Fight A song that captures classic coolness with an intuitive and minimal riff and sound. It boldly and intensely reveals the message: ‘If being different means being wrong, I will rebel until the end.’ 7. Abyss (심연) The pre-release track of this album, featuring a standout harmony between acoustic guitar melodies and dynamic band sounds. Additionally, the lyrics that calmly unravel the deep inner thoughts of the heart evoke great empathy from the listener.
