Yim Si-wan Taps SM Sub-Label for First Solo Album With Release Targeted This Year

The singer-actor has been operating without an agency since August after starting the project on his own.

Overview

  • SM Entertainment says one of its subsidiary labels is producing the album and that the release schedule is being coordinated.
  • Media reports indicate the record is in its final production stages with a goal of releasing later this year.
  • The company is expected to oversee Yim Si-wan’s music activities under the sub-label arrangement, according to recent coverage.
  • Yim chose to collaborate with SM after consulting senior artist Kangta during independently led development of the album.
  • This will be his first album under his own name since debuting with ZE:A in 2010, following past OST and collaboration work.
