Eddy Kim announced the release of his digital single “TIME,” set for November 8 at 6 p.m. KST, by unveiling the album cover on Mystic Story’s official social media on the 5th. The cover art, featuring a solitary figure floating through a vast and ethereal cosmic landscape, creates an otherworldly and dreamy atmosphere. This image of a person gliding freely among planets evokes a sense of weightlessness and freedom, stirring curiosity about the single’s theme.
“TIME” marks Eddy Kim’s first release in ten months since his January collaboration with producer Yoon Jong Shin on the track “track by YOON: It’ll Get Better.” Known for providing solace and empathy in his music, Eddy Kim is expected to convey even deeper emotions and a new musical style with this upcoming release. Notably, this single is his first solo work under his own name since October 2018, marking his official comeback after a six-year hiatus.
Eddy Kim halted his activities in April 2019, amidst the “Burning Sun Gate” scandal, which involved several figures in the K-pop industry. His close associates, including Seungri of BIGBANG, Choi Jong Hoon of FT Island, and singer Jung Joon Young, were implicated in serious offenses related to illegal video sharing and distribution. While Eddy Kim was initially linked to a controversial group chat, investigations cleared him of any involvement in illegal filming, confirming that he was not a member of the problematic chat group. However, he did face minor legal repercussions for sharing one image classified as general pornography, resulting in a fine.
Singer Roy Kim, who received a similar disposition, opted to join the military’s Marine Corps and made his return to music in October 2022 following his discharge. Eddy Kim’s upcoming release now signals his own return to the music industry, reigniting anticipation among fans.
