by. ymchoi

VERIVERY member Kangmin has successfully wrapped up his first solo promotions, proving his potential as a standalone artist.

Kangmin released his first solo single album Free Falling on March 26. The album surpassed 100,000 copies in first-week sales, marking a strong start to his solo career.

Strong Chart Performance and Buzz

The title track "Free Falling" also gained significant attention. It ranked No.3 on Bugs' real-time chart (as of March 27) and entered Melon's Hot 100 chart, signaling solid digital performance.

A New Side as a Solo Artist

Through this release, Kangmin showcased a completely different charm from his group activities. Over two weeks, he appeared on major music shows including M Countdown, Music Bank, Show! Music Core, and Inkigayo.

His performances highlighted a restrained yet immersive style, capturing the emotional tension embedded in the song.

Recognition and Future Expectations

On April 5, Kangmin received the "Hot Stage" trophy on Inkigayo, an award determined by fan votes and YouTube views.

His agency commented, "With his first solo single released seven years after debut, Kangmin has achieved both strong music performance and buzz. Please look forward to his future activities."
