The Korea Times

By Kim Ji-soo
Popular K-pop artist Daniel Kang will release his first digital solo single, Touching, on Monday.
The rapper/singer and former member of now-disbanded boy band Wanna One released two photos of himself wearing a fedora and bow tie and a red velvet suit on Wednesday, offering a hint of the stylistic direction he may take with the new single.
Wanna One, a project band formed through a now controversial TV audition programme, dropped chart-topping hits including Energetic (2017), and Kang and his fellow members landed a range of commercial deals in the country.
After the group disbanded in December 2018, Kang went solo and set up his own agency, Konnect Entertainment, after a legal dispute with his former agency LM Entertainment.
This summer, the 22-year-old released his first solo album Color On Me. Since then Kang has focused on fan meetings throughout Asia.
