Marking a bold new chapter, XngHan unveils his artist brand XngHan&Xoul with the release of debut mini album Glow, out now.
The five-track project introduces fans to a vibrant, dance-driven soundscape rooted in electronic influences—while staying grounded in themes of connection, growth, and self-discovery.
Leading the release is title track ‘Glow’, a summer-ready house-pop anthem powered by urgent synth hooks and a pulsing bassline. Bright and uplifting, the track captures the feeling of rediscovering one’s inner light through shared moments, positioning itself as a feel-good ode to youth and togetherness.
Visually, the music video expands on this concept through movement. Built around the idea of “light,” the performance features fluid, expressive choreography—further amplified by XngHan’s collaboration with two new dancers under the XngHan&Xoul format, emphasising the project’s collective and performance-driven identity.
Across Glow, XngHan explores a spectrum of electronic-dance sounds, weaving in elements of house, disco, and Afropop. The opening track ‘Dancing Anyway’ sets the tone with soft piano melodies and airy synths before blooming into electro-disco, pairing vulnerability with rhythmic momentum.
‘Light The Fire’ follows with futuristic disco textures and a message of breaking free from expectations, while ‘Wishlist’ leans into breezy Afropop influences with a romantic edge. Closing track ‘Lovin’ On Me’ shifts inward, offering an introspective take on self-love with an addictive, groove-led chorus.
Ahead of the release, XngHan connected with fans at his 2026 XngHan&Xoul Fanmeeting Let’s Glow on 26 April in Seoul—building anticipation for a project that arrives roughly nine months after his debut single ‘Waste No Time’. That track previously topped iTunes charts in 12 regions and drew praise from outlets including NME, DAZED, The Hollywood Reporter, and Forbes.
Speaking on the release, XngHan shared, “The album is filled with sounds I love—it’s music you can dance to, but it’s not just about the dance. It also has a calm, more serene side.”
With Glow, XngHan&Xoul set the tone for what’s to come—blending performance, collaboration, and emotional storytelling into a debut that feels both dynamic and deeply personal.
