On January 9, SpoTV News reported that Cha Eunwoo is preparing to release his first solo album in the first half of 2024. Confirming this report, the K-pop agency subsequently told Star1 that the information is accurate. Fantagio added that their artist plans to preview songs from his upcoming album at a fan meeting scheduled for this February.

Cha Eunwoo is preparing his first solo album with the goal of releasing it in the first half of 2024,” the K-pop agency said in a statement. “In particular, he’s preparing with the objective of unveiling the songs from his solo album for the first time on stage at his first fan-con, so please show lots of anticipation.”

While the upcoming release will mark his official solo debut, the actor and idol has released solo songs in the past, many of which were for soundtracks of dramas he has starred in. These include 2023’s “Jealousy” from A Good Day to be a Dog. In 2022, Eunwoo and his ASTRO members each released solo songs as part of their third studio album Drive to the Starry Road.
