ONEW Drops First English Single ‘MAD’ Ahead of Sold-Out North American Tour

Global K-Pop sensation ONEW, known as the gentle powerhouse vocalist from SHINee, has just released his much-anticipated first English-language single titled ‘MAD’ today at 6 PM KST. This heartfelt track marks an emotional milestone in ONEW’s artistic journey, preceding his upcoming 2025 ONEW CONCERT [ONEW THE LIVE : CONNECTION] IN USA, set to kick off this week in New York.

‘MAD’ dives deep into the whirlwind of emotions that emerge when falling in love and the anxiety that surfaces when love starts to fade. Set to a compelling blend of warm acoustic guitar lines and gritty drum textures, the track is elevated by ONEW’s lush and dynamic vocals. The song’s repetitive melody line captures the inescapability of love’s emotional chaos, creating a lyrically raw and sonically captivating listening experience.

This surprise English-language release comes just days before the start of ONEW’s much-hyped North American Tour. Beginning in New York on June 24 (local time), the tour will bring ONEW to people across major U.S. cities including San Francisco and Los Angeles — with tickets for all shows already sold out, proving his soaring popularity across the globe.

The release of ‘MAD’ exemplifies ONEW’s expanding musical spectrum and his commitment to connecting with international audiences. As anticipation builds, fans can also look forward to him dropping his second full album in July, further solidifying his position as a multifaceted solo artist in the global music scene.

‘MAD’ is now available worldwide on major music streaming platforms.
