24 October 2024 – Today, NCT vocalist JAEHYUN releases his tantalising new R&B single ‘Unconditional’, via SM Entertainment – watch the video BELOW.

The funky, rhythmic bassline of ‘Unconditional’ is a sumptuous continuation of JAEHYUN’s acclaimed debut solo album “J - The 1st Album”, which arrived this summer showcasing his love of classic R&B and smooth jazz. Co-written and co-composed by JAEHYUN as a gift to fans, the playful English-language track doubles as a love letter to his artistic influences and a display of unconditional love for someone special.

Already renowned as a standout vocalist in K-pop, JAEHYUN firmly established himself as a solo artist to watch this summer with the release of “J - The 1st Album”. The release marked the highest first-week album sales for an SM Entertainment solo artist in 2024, with fans and critics alike raving about the cohesive story JAEHYUN crafted across the eight tracks. NME hailed it as a “tantalisingly sweet tease”, praising his “multifaceted” vocal performance. CLASH notes, “Each number is drenched in smooth vocals, groovy bass lines, and lyrics that compel you to take a seat, close your eyes, tap your finger, and go surrender to the ride.”

This weekend (26 and 27 October), fans will have the opportunity to hear these songs live, as JAEHYUN holds his first solo fan concert “2024 JAEHYUN FAN-CON ” in Seoul. The concert is live-streamed to a global audience on Beyond LIVE on 27 October, 16:00PM KST.

As a member of K-Pop powerhouse NCT, including sub-units NCT 127 and NCT DOJAEJUNG, JAEHYUN’s music catalogue is prolific, spanning the latest album as well as solo tracks like ‘Forever Only’, which made British GQ’s “22 best songs of 2022” and Teen Vogue’s “The 79 Best K-Pop Songs of 2022”.
