Description (Translated):
A warm voice that will be deeply imprinted in everyone's heartChangseop Lee's 1st mini album [Mark]
BTOB Lee Chang-seop releases his first solo album [Mark]. [Mark], like its dictionary meaning, implies that Lee Chang-seop will leave his own musical color and traces in the music industry. BTOB's solo single project [Piece of BTOB] While maintaining the mood of the emotional rock ballad introduced through 'At The End', this album was intended to contain the essence of a richer sound. From lyrical pop ballad tracks to trendy alternative rock genres, you can feel various charms with arrangements and full band composition that highlight Lee Chang-seop's unique sweet tone. Lee Chang-seop personally wrote the lyrics for all the songs on the b-side, participated in composing most of the songs, and even proved his producing skills.
Also, for the first time since his debut, he succeeded in transforming his image by challenging his discoloration, and the concept photo released in advance raised the expectations of many fans and the public. As if to reciprocate that expectation, the physical album, which contains Lee Chang-seop's unique appearance, also adds value to the collection by highlighting aesthetic shapes such as colors, light, and shadows reflected in a mirror, just like a photobook. In the music video, a message of encouragement and hope was conveyed to everyone through the image of an artist and an aspiring singer completing their own music by matching their breath with Park Cho-rong, a member of Apink who appeared in friendship.
The image reflected in the mirror is sometimes distorted and shaken. The unadorned, sincere inner side and the contemplation of the loneliness behind the splendor is the process that makes him grow one step further. Sometimes calmly, sometimes as if begging, while listening to the delicate speed control, the modifier of a perfect singer-songwriter with both skills and emotions comes to mind. This winter, let's feel the warmth of his music that will be cherished in people's hearts for a long time, like putting a pretty bookmark on an impressive verse.
'My first solo album [Mark] is about people.
Love, separation, and my story were put into the song.
I hope that everyone who listens to this song will be able to relate and listen to it as if it were their own story.'

01. Way
Composed by MosPick, Lee Chang-seop
Lyrics by Changseop Lee, MosPick
Arranged by MosPick
The first track, 'Way', is Lee Chang-seop's own song that contains the bitter heart of wanting to run away from painful memories and wounds after a breakup. The rhythmical guitar sound and Lee Chang-seop's trendy vocals harmonize, making it a song that makes you admire the plain expressive power that is neither excessive nor insufficient.
02. Gap
Composed by MosPick, Lee Chang-seop
Lyrics by Changseop Lee
Arranged by MosPick
Lee Chang-seop's self-composed song 'Gap', which was released on the concert stage and raised expectations from many fans, is included. The sweet falsetto blends with the strong band sound, raising the atmosphere as it enters the chorus. The poetic lyrics stand out as they express the complicated feelings that cannot be sorted out through the gap between 'me with you' and 'me without you'.
03. Shelter
Composed by VINCENZO, Fuxxy, Any Masingga
Lyrics by Changsub Lee, VINCENZO, Fuxxy, Any Masingga
Arranged by VINCENZO, Fuxxy
'Shelter', a song with impressive vocals full of a sense of space that captivates the ear from the beginning, provides a rich listening experience with strong effects, acoustic elements, and chill wave electronic sound. It is a song for many who have become a haven when suffering at the end of a broken day.
04. Ever
Composed by MosPick, Lee Chang-seop
Lyrics by Changseop Lee
Arranged by MosPick
'Ever', a song that stands out with a medium-tempo guitar lead and repeated chorus, is Lee Chang-seop's self-composed song that expresses his desire to sing anytime, anywhere, in any situation. The sincere voice and skillful control of tempo create a dramatic atmosphere for the song.
05.Gone
Composed, Arranged by MosPick
Lyrics by Changseop Lee
The title song 'Gone' is a pop ballad genre song, and the lyrics express the desire to go away with the one you love in a dark and lonely world to a faraway place where you are not courted by any courtship. Lee Chang-seop's mournful voice and the sound of the band, which gradually escalates towards the second half, harmonize to provide an immersive feeling as if watching a movie.

Description (Original):
모두의 마음속 깊게 각인될 따스한 목소리이창섭 첫 번째 미니앨범 [Mark]
비투비 이창섭이 첫 번째 솔로 앨범 [Mark]를 발매한다. [Mark]는 그 사전적 의미처럼, 이창섭 자신만의 음악적 색채와 흔적을 가요계에 남긴다는 뜻을 내포한다. 비투비 솔로 싱글 프로젝트 [Piece of BTOB] ‘At The End’를 통해 선보인 감성 록 발라드의 무드를 유지하되, 더욱 풍성해진 사운드의 정수를 이번 앨범에 담고자 했다. 서정적인 팝 발라드 트랙부터 트렌디한 얼터너티브 록 장르까지, 이창섭 특유의 감미로운 음색이 더욱 돋보이는 편곡과 풀 밴드 구성으로 다양한 매력을 느낄 수 있다. 이창섭이 직접 수록곡 전곡의 가사를 쓰고, 대부분의 곡에 작곡으로도 참여하며 프로듀싱 실력까지 입증했다.
또한 데뷔 이래 처음으로 탈색에 도전하며 이미지 변신에 성공, 사전에 공개된 콘셉트 포토는 많은 팬들과 대중의 기대를 불러일으켰다. 그 기대에 보답하듯 이창섭의 색다른 모습을 담은 피지컬 앨범 역시 한 권의 화보집처럼 색채와 빛, 거울에 반사된 그림자 등 미학적 형상을 부각시켜 소장 가치를 더했다. 뮤직비디오에서는 우정 출연한 에이핑크 멤버 박초롱과 호흡을 맞추어, 자신만의 음악을 완성해가는 아티스트와 가수 지망생의 모습을 통해 모두에게 격려와 희망의 메시지를 전했다.
거울에 비친 모습은 때때로 일그러지고, 흔들린다. 꾸밈없는 진솔한 내면과, 화려함 이면에 자리한 쓸쓸함에 대한 고찰은 그를 한 단계 성장하게 만드는 과정이다. 때로는 덤덤하게, 때로는 애원하듯 내지르는 섬세한 완급조절을 듣고 있노라면, 실력과 감성을 겸비한 완성형 싱어송라이터라는 수식어가 절로 떠오른다. 올겨울, 인상 깊은 구절에 예쁜 책갈피를 끼워 넣듯 오랫동안 사람들의 마음속에 간직될 그의 음악의 온기를 느껴보자.
'나의 첫 번째 솔로 앨범 [Mark]는 사람에 관한 이야기다.
사랑, 이별, 그리고 나의 이야기를 노래에 담았다.
이 노래를 듣는 모든 이가 자신의 이야기처럼 공감하며 들을 수 있기를 바란다.'

첫 번째 수록곡 ‘Way’는 이별 후의 아픈 기억과 상처로부터 멀리 도망치고 싶은 씁쓸한 마음을 담은 이창섭의 자작곡이다. 리드미컬한 기타 사운드와 이창섭의 트렌디한 보컬이 조화를 이루어, 과하지도 부족하지도 않은 담백한 표현력에 감탄하게 되는 곡이다.

Lyrics by 이창섭

콘서트 무대를 통해 공개되어 많은 팬들의 기대를 모았던 이창섭의 자작곡 ‘틈’이 수록됐다. 감미로운 가성이 강렬한 밴드 사운드와 어우러져 후렴에 접어들수록 분위기를 고조시킨다. 차마 정리할 수 없는 복잡한 심정을 ‘네가 있던 나’와 ‘네가 없던 나’ 사이의 틈으로 표현한 시적인 가사가 돋보인다.
03. Shelter

Lyrics by 이창섭, VINCENZO, Fuxxy, Any Masingga
Arranged by VINCENZO, Fuxxy
도입부부터 귀를 사로잡는 공간감 가득한 보컬이 인상적인 곡 ‘Shelter’는 강렬한 이펙트와 어쿠스틱 요소, 칠 웨이브 일렉트로닉 사운드가 더해져 풍성한 들을 거리를 선사한다. 부서진 하루의 끝에서 괴로워할 때 안식처가 되어준 많은 이들을 위한 노래이다.
04. Ever
Composed by MosPick, 이창섭
Lyrics by 이창섭
Arranged by MosPick
미디엄 템포의 기타 리드와 반복되는 코러스가 돋보이는 곡 ‘Ever’는 언제 어디서든, 어떤 상황에서든 변함없이 노래하고 싶은 마음을 담은 이창섭의 자작곡이다. 진심을 담은 목소리와 능숙한 완급 조절이 곡의 드라마틱한 분위기를 조성한다.
05. Gone
Composed, Arranged by MosPick
Lyrics by 이창섭
타이틀곡 ‘Gone‘은 팝 발라드 장르의 곡으로, 어둡고 외로운 세상에서 사랑하는 이와 함께 어떠한 구애도 받지 않는 먼 곳으로 훌쩍 떠나고 싶은 마음을 가사로 풀었다. 이창섭의 애절한 목소리와, 후반부로 접어들수록 점점 고조되는 밴드 사운드가 어우러져 한 편의 영화를 보는 듯한 몰입감을 선사한다.
