Cha Eun-woo, an ASTRO vocalist, released his first mini-album, “Entity,” as his solo debut. The EP contains six tracks, with lead track “Stay.”
The album, according to the artist’s management Fantagio, is intended to portray Cha’s unfiltered emotions as Lee Dong-min, his true name, beneath the stage persona of Cha Eun-woo.
Cha contributed words to each of the EP’s six tracks. Through the record, he hopes to share his resolve to “live honestly while accepting all of [him]self,” according to his agency.
The notion of a “home” with the title “entity” appears in the album’s concept.
The EP’s lead track “Stay” is a country pop song whose lyrics offer comfort to those who have parted with their loved ones, Fantagio added. Other tracks include “Where am I,” about the hollowness Cha feels behind a glamorous front, the rebellious “Fu*king great time” and the uplifting “You’re the Best.”

He has since starred in multiple Korean drama series including “Gangnam Beauty” (2018), “True Beauty” (2020-2021), “Island” (2022) and, most recently, “A Good Day to be a Dog,” which ended in January. The MBC series “Wonderful World,” in which he plays the male lead, will premiere on March 1.
Cha will kick off his fan concert tour “2024 Just One 10 Minute [Mystery Elevator]” at the Jamsil Arena on Saturday.
