Description (Original):
'글로벌 대세 아티스트' 원호가 한계를 모르는 성장과 진화로 빚어낸 음악으로 돌아왔다.'Bittersweet'은 씁쓸하면서도 달콤하고, 즐거우면서도 슬프기도 한 다채로운 감정을 원호만의 솔직함으로 풀어낸 앨범으로, 지난 6월 발매한 세 번째 미니 앨범 FACADE' 이후 원호가 약 4개월 만에 공들여 만들어낸 신보다. 또 위니(원호 공식 팬덤명)와 원호가 늘 함께한다는 메시지와 더불어 원호가 팬들에게 감사한 마음을 담아 더욱 의미를 더했다.
원호는 첫 싱글 'OBSESSION', 미니 1집 'Blue Letter'와 미니 2집 'FACADE'에 이어 이번 새 싱글에서도 수록된 2곡 모두 작사, 작곡, 프로듀싱에 참여해 '올라운더 아티스트'의 한계 없는 음악 스펙트럼을 또 한 번 입증한다. 특히 이번 싱글은 전작들과는 다르게 원호가 새롭게 시도하는 음악적 장르라는 점에서 전 세계 팬들의 더 높은 관심이 집중된다.
이번 싱글에는 원호만이 보여줄 수 있는 독보적 감성에 더욱 짙어진 원호의 음악색을 온전히 느낄 수 있는 2곡이 알차게 수록됐다. 원호는 자신의 전담 프로듀서 이자 히트메이커 크루원인 이난(ENAN)과 소울풀한 보이스의 썬안(Sun Ahn), 싱어송라이터 브라더수와 다시 한 번 호흡을 맞춰 최고의 완성도를 자랑하는 앨범을 완성시켰다.
타이틀곡 'Don't Regret'은 파워풀하면서도 감성적인 극과 극 무드가 어우러진 곡으로, '지금 함께하는 이 순간을 위해 지나쳐온 과거들이 아름답게 남아있다'는 사랑하는 사람들을 향한 원호의 마음을 담고 있다. 귀를 사로잡는 펑크 사운드와 트렌디하면서도 노련한 사운드에디팅, 후렴구에 터지는 원호의 에너제틱한 보컬이 매력적인 곡으로, 정교하게 진행되는 가사를 통해 사랑의 과정에서 다가오는 의심, 오해 그리고 기다림을 뛰어넘는 결과와 그 모든 시간을 후회하지 않는 이들과 자신에게 바치는 헌정곡이다.
감각적인 연출과 원호의 강렬한 퍼포먼스가 어우러진 'Don't Regret' 뮤직비디오는 이별 후 느끼게 되는 심리 변화를 은유적으로 담아냈다. 이별 직후 시작된 감정이 분노, 타협, 침체 단계를 차례로 거쳐 최종적으로 이별을 받아들이고 헤어짐에 순응하게 되기까지의 과정을 표현한 원호의 섬세한 감정 연기가 보는 재미와 함께 곡에 몰입도를 더한다.
수록곡 'On & On'은 Dancehall & Afrobeat 장르에서 주로 쓰이는 스네어 리듬을 기반으로, 나른한 듯 섬세한 원호의 보컬과 묵직한 베이스와 악기들의 섹시한 키싱이 돋보이는 댄스곡이다. 특히 독특하고 개성 넘치는 음색으로 힙합씬에서 각광받고 있는 핫한 아티스트 윤훼이(YUNHWAY)가 피처링 지원사격에 나서 곡의 몽환적인 무드를 더욱 배가시켰다. 트렌디한 음악의 대표 주자 윤훼이와 글로벌 K팝 시장을 선두하는 원호의 신선한 조합에서 뿜어져 나오는 특급 시너지가 듣는 재미를 더한다.
끊임 없는 도전과 성장을 거듭하며 차별화된 콘셉트와 화려한 퍼포먼스, 프로듀싱 능력으로 발매하는 앨범마다 수많은 음악가와 아티스트들, 대중들의 호평을 이끌어낸 원호는 두 번째 싱글 'Bittersweet'을 통해 명불허전 '완성형 솔로 아티스트'로서 진가를 다시 한번 증명할 예정이다.
