K-Pop Star Wonho Bounces Back from Mandatory Military Service with a New Single, Solo Shows

Fans are rejoicing as K-pop star Wonho, his military service completed, has gotten back into the swing of singing with a new single and a first-time tour as a solo act.

"The singer, a soloist under Highline Entertainment, wasted no time in getting back to music following his September discharge, releasing an English-language single 'What Would You Do' in November," The Hollywood Reporter recounted.

"Wonho then spent much of December touring the U.S. for the first time as a soloist," THR said, "performing at several Jingle Ball concerts around the country and even making a stop at the Unforgettable Gala."

The 31-year-old recording artist and bona fide sex symbol was nothing if not confident as he spoke with the entertainment news outlet. "I'm going to be a superstar soon," Wonho assured THR, "so don't be late on the train."

The singer went on to tell the magazine how "exciting" it was for him to resume his career and travel around America to meet his fans, known as "Wenee."

"There's a lot of new music that we're excited for," Wonho declared, before admitting that he had been "very nervous" before making his debut at the Jingle Ball in Dallas.

"When I'm on stage with other artists at Jingle Ball, it's not really that I'm super nervous," the artist corrected himself, "it's just a new experience for me.

"The difference for my fan meetings is that it's usually only my fans, so it's like a better opportunity to interact and communicate more closely with them. It's more fun."

Also fun: his constant focus on his art.

"I'm always working on new music and have new songs," Wonho explained. He identified some unexplored career pathways he's looking forward to charting: "I'd like to try country music and try acting, too."

"I think there are always things to work on and improve on, but in the moment I'm always trying my best," he said. "I don't feel like I'm ever fully satisfied in the moment.... Now, I'm more focused on enjoying the process and making sure that I'm having fun creating things."

Among his new projects: an upcoming album, which he suggested will drop in the next few months, after which he said he'd like to "hurry and come back to meet my fans" in America.

"Please listen and enjoy it together, now and in the future," Wonho invited. "I hope that we have a good time together."

His fans certainly hope so, too. Check out some of the pics the K-pop star has posted to his Insta page:
