Welcome back #SoundLovers! We are excited to shine the spotlight on this next artist! Joh! , a music enthusiast and independent artist who recently released the single “ cupid ” and is set to drop an album called Discord Kid . K Fuse had the opportunity to speak with Joh! about some o his biggest influences, dream collaboration, and his creative process. Learn more about this emotionally honest and curious artist below! Hello Joh, Thank you for taking the time to speak with us at K Fuse. Before we begin, could you please introduce yourself to our readers? A: Hey, I’m Joh, and I make music! Well, more than a musician, I’d say I’m just someone who loves  music. I’m going to keep doing what I love, and there’s a lot of fun stuff coming soon. I recently released my single “cupid,” and soon, I’ll be dropping an album called Discord Kid . I’m really excited about it. Hope you guys are looking forward to it too! Thank you. Before we discuss music, I would like our readers to become acquainted with you. Let's start with some basic questions. If you had to describe yourself in three words, which words would you choose and why? A: Honest, emotional, curious. I try to stay true to what I’m feeling, even if it’s messy or uncomfortable. I’m always searching for new sounds, new stories, and new ways to express myself. Who have been some of your most significant musical influences? A: Artists like Keshi, Justin Bieber, and Karri have really influenced my approach to melody and vulnerability. Their music feels honest and intentional, which is something I always strive for in my own work. Could you share how you began your career in the entertainment industry? A: I started out as a rapper. Over time, I wanted to explore different forms of music, which naturally led me to singing. That opened up various opportunities, and now I’m here, both as a songwriter and an artist. How would you characterize your sound to new listeners? A: I’d say it’s emotional pop with R&B roots and a splash of hyperpop chaos. It’s melodic, honest, and sometimes a little messy, like real feelings are. Are there any genres you are currently exploring or would like to explore? A: I’m really interested in R&B and glitchy electronic sounds right now. I love mixing textures and genres that normally don’t go together. How are you promoting your music at the moment? A: Mostly through social media and collaborations with other creatives. I think it’s important to keep things organic and community-driven. How do you balance your passion for music with other aspects of your life? A: Honestly, I’m still figuring that out. Music tends to take over, but I try to stay grounded by spending time alone, disconnecting when I need to reset. You recently released your latest single, " cupid ," which takes listeners on a journey through a story of longing to return to a time of innocent love. What inspired this song? A: “cupid”    was written during a time when I felt emotionally lost. It’s about craving something pure again, even though you know you’ve already been changed by love and pain. This song definitely has hyperpop characteristics with a slight rock feel that keeps listeners on their toes.  Can you walk us through your creative process for this song? A: It started from a demo that Jun, a manager at my label NAISU agency, played for me. The demo was made by Asian producers, which already had that R&B-meets-hyperpop energy. I rewrote the topline, added some glitchy vocal textures, and built the structure around emotional highs and lows to reflect the instability of the story. Have you ever experienced writer's block? How did you overcome it? A: Definitely. When that happens, I stop forcing it and just live a little. Sometimes the best way to write again is to step away and come back with something real to say. Are there any artists with whom you would like to collaborate with? A: Justin Bieber. He’s my idol and the biggest inspiration behind the music I’m making now. I really want to work with him at least once before I die. What can fans expect from you as we progress through 2025? A: I’ll be releasing more songs even after the album. I’m chasing newer, more playful ideas, and there might be some unexpected collaborations too. Nothing’s confirmed yet, but I’m excited to keep evolving. Before we wrap up, Is there a message you would like to share with your fans and our readers? A: Thank you for listening and making space for my music! I’m still learning and growing, but I hope my songs can give you some comfort, even if just for a moment.

After more than a decade away, CNBLUE made their long-awaited return to New York on April 18th, taking over the Knockdown Center in Queens for their first show in the city in 11 years. It wasn’t just a concert — it felt like a reunion, a celebration. The night kicked off with a bang as CNBLUE opened with " In My Head ," firing up the crowd from the very first note. The energy was wild — hands up, voices screaming, people jumping. The band didn’t waste a second showing New York that they were back and honestly, sounding better than ever. After the first segment, frontman Yonghwa grabbed the mic and chatted with the crowd, sharing that New York had officially turned him into a foodie — proudly confessing his love for tacos (shoutout to Los Tacos). Everyone cracked up, and it felt like one of those moments where the artist just gets the city they’re in. The three-piece band brought the nostalgia force with their debut song " Loner ," the kind of track that just hits different live, especially for longtime fans. And then came “ Wake Up ,” one of the night’s most hyped-up moments. In the middle of the song, they paid tribute to Queen, breaking into " We Will Rock You ." Minhyuk got the whole crowd stomping and clapping along — it seriously felt like a stadium. Things slowed down in the best way when Yonghwa sat at the piano to perform " To. My Love. " The whole venue went still, just soaking in the softness of the song. It was one of those rare, quiet concert moments where everything just… stops. During a mid-show break, Yonghwa talked about seeing their faces on the big screens in Times Square and suddenly burst into Alicia Keys " New York " which obviously had the crowd losing it. Then he greeted fans in Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish — and the crowd totally paid him back with the loudest cheers But this wasn’t just a night of deep feelings, the band made sure we had fun too. The energy jumped again during " Cinderella " with everyone back on their feet, dancing and singing like no time had passed at all. Encore, Yonghwa returned to the stage with " Can’t Stop " with a special shoutout to New York. The crowd sang every word. Afterwards, he turned to us with a grin and asked for help filming a little video, leading us in a playful "YES!" chant that filled the room. And in a super sweet moment, he even sang " Happy Birthday " to a fan who called out during the break definitely a memory that person won’t forget. To end the show, CNBLUE performed " Love Light " casting a soft glow over the venue then he transitions to Young Forever. As the chorus played, silver confetti started falling from above, catching the light. the moment just hung in the air, quiet and dreamy — a slow fade rather than a big finale.
