NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, February 26, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Singer and musical actor Lee Seok Hoon has released a new digital single, “사랑이란 건 (When It’s Called Love).” This is his first release of 2026, following his fifth mini album, Renewed Purpose, in August 2025. “사랑이란 건 (When It’s Called Love)” is a ballad track that quietly confesses the importance of time spent together, rather than shouting out loud about being in love. The singer shared that this track conveys the gratitude one feels when encountering a lover, as well as the momentary uneasiness of treasuring time with a lover, in the most honest way, carrying the hope of continuing ordinary days filled with happiness.
After releasing Renewed Purpose, Lee Seok Hoon held a small-scale concert titled 쓰임 : 새로, 쓰임 (Purpose : Renewed Purpose) in September 2025 to meet his fans more closely. From January to March 2025, he played the main character, Gwynplaine, in the musical The Man Who Laughs, which was inspired by Victor Hugo’s L’Homme qui rit. Then, from November 2025 to February 2026, Lee Seok Hoon took the role of Christian in the musical Moulin Rouge! The Musical. Now releasing new music after about six months, Lee Seok Hoon hopes to connect with his fans through music and prove himself again as a multi-talented entertainer.
