Yang Yo-seob, musical actor and main vocalist of K-pop group Beast, has released his first solo EP album, titled “The First Collage,” on Monday.
The album, which includes five tracks, was partly produced by rapper, composer and fellow Beast member Yong Jun-hyung, who co-wrote, produced and is featured in one of the tracks, “Caffeine.”
“You’re bad to me, so bad to me, oh girl, you’re like caffeine,” is the main chorus line to the title track, which is an upbeat ballad comparing the trials of love with the effects of caffeine. Upon its release, the song ranked No. 1 on both the Soribada and Naver music charts, second on Olleh and third on Daum and Melon.
