EVAN discusses his move into a solo career and the release of his debut-era EP, ‘DEATH OF ME’, in a Billboard News Special. The interview matters because it outlines how he is establishing an individual artistic identity and communicating directly with his fanbase, known as Evers.

He explains that “Evan” is a name friends had used for him since he was young, following his transition from HEESEUNG to EVAN. He also breaks down tracks including “Not Enough”, “Ride or Die” and “Going Home”, while discussing his album-making process, rehearsals and plans for future releases.
