MAMAMOO's Solar will return as a solo artist in March.

RBW unexpectedly revealed the face motion logo of Solar's first mini-album '容: FACE' through the official SNS at midnight on February 22, and announced the news of a comeback in March.

In the released motion logo video, a plaster statue modeled after Solar's face appears.

Next, the words '容 (face dragon)' appears on the face, and the video ends. The short but impactful composition raised expectations for a solo comeback.

Solar's solo comeback is the first in a year and 11 months since the single album 'SPIT IT OUT' was released in April 2020.

Her new album '容: FACE' was inspired by the Chinese character '容' of Solar's real name 'Kim Yong-seon'. As much as her solar name is her own, she plans to capture her true and sincere appearance.

Previously, Solar showed a passion that is not afraid to take on new challenges through the single album 'SPIT IT OUT'. She proved her limitless charm by digesting the concept of shaved as well as styling the naughty one.

Recently, through her personal YouTube channel 'Solasido', she released various content and spent a hiatus communicating with fans. Solar, who returned as a solo singer after a long time, raises curiosity about what kind of face she will show with '容: FACE'.

Solar is busy preparing for her first mini-album '容: FACE' with the goal of making a comeback in March.

BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
