Ggum will showcase the distinct persona of the Gen-Z “It Boy”
Tomorrow X Together’s “It Boy,” Yeonjun, is set to release his debut solo mixtape, Ggum, on September 19th via BigHit Music.
With the mixtape’s feature track “Ggum” falling under hip-hop with a captivating electro sound, the digital cover offers a glimpse into the mixtape’s vibe, infused with Yeonjun’s trendy sensibility. The cover features a figurine resembling the K-pop star blowing on bubble gum and typography resembling gum’s sticky texture, creating a hip aesthetic.
In light of the announcement, Yeonjun’s Mixtape Intro Film was released on Hybe’s YouTube channel on September 8th, amping up fans’ anticipation and curiosity. Against the bustling noises of the city, Yeonjun’s somewhat lonely appearance reveals the flip side of youth, one that isn’t always glamorous.

His raw, rebellious energy and gritty backdrop reveal a new side of Yeonjun as a solo artist, previously unseen.

His standout ability to break boundaries across performance, vocals, and rap has proven his powerful stage presence. With Ggum, Yeonjun is set to embark on a new journey as a solo artist and further shed light on his unique taste and one-of-a-kind style.
