This year will be a very special memory for Yves, who began her career as a solo artist. This is because it is 2024, when Loona made her full-fledged solo debut with Loop in April and even released her second EP ID, and began to "strengthen."
Eve's desire for "calmness" and feelings to achieve him in this album. Eve, who just started her solo career as a member of LOONA, wants to let her fans know her true musical color.
"This album is the result of honestly unraveling the emotions I faced in the process of finding the peace that I think is the most important thing in my feelings of happiness. That's why the word "space" comes out a lot in "Viola". This means I needed some peace of mind. I sang it with the hope that it would give fans that kind of relaxation."
A person who craves something also means that something has been desperately lacking. The reason why Eve chose "Peace" as the theme of this album can be seen as meaning that she lacked "Peace" greatly.
"When I was LOONA, I was busy with music and concepts because I debuted without a period of training, and I found peace of mind only through company recognition and public recognition, rather than hearing my voice. So I was unhappy when I thought I wasn't recognized. Now, I feel a lot of happiness through the joy of making something and the pride of making it."
As everyone knows, Eve had quite a rough ups and downs before she did her music as a solo artist. She debuted as LOONA and went through a one-year hiatus and succeeded in making her solo debut after many twists and turns. Is the girl of the month a tag to Eve? Or is it the origin of today's Eve?
"For me now, I'm grateful that you recognize me as Eve from 'Loona' and it's positive. I had to take a year off, and many of you must have forgotten me, but I'm grateful that you remember me because of this group called 'Loona.'"
After hard work, memories can be corrected. I can talk to you with a smile to some extent now, but the last hiatus obviously had a big impact on Eve. This experience also left a strong mark as a solo artist Eve, not a member of "Loona."
"That was a year like 10 years for me, because I was in a situation where I couldn't do anything if I wasn't busy. I felt like I was being chained, I felt like I was being oppressed. So now I'm trying to challenge myself one more thing and I'm trying to be free."
The results of Eve's "doing everything she wanted to do" are "Loop" and "Id." "In the group, I usually took on a low and mature tone, but now I can do the music I want to do by freely moving between low and high notes," he said. "I was worried because I made a lot of bold attempts when I started as a solo for the first time, but I was grateful that the fans liked it, saying it was an 'eve-down choice.' "If I hear that Eve's debut and the conclusion of her debut with this album were successful, I think I will be able to do well in the future," he said.
Eve, who now looks at freedom and tranquility, did not evaluate the album's success as a "grade" that was apparent. The only criterion for success or failure is Eve herself.
"I want to do my best on every stage without any regrets. I want to remember the people who sincerely support me and be happy. When my mother opposed my singing career and asked me why I wanted to do this, I remember answering, 'I'm not doing it because I want to do it, but I'm doing it because I think I'll die if I don't do this.' I'm still the same as I was then. This job of being a singer and music is something I'm happy about and like-minded enough to take on any kind of hard work, so I think I can continue working."
